Journal ArticleDOI
Cooling Functions for Low-Density Astrophysical Plasmas
TL;DR: In this article, the cooling functions for a plasma slab are investigated under equilibrium and nonequilibrium conditions, over a range of 10 4 -10 85 K and for a variety of abundances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theoretical Modeling of Starburst Galaxies
TL;DR: In this paper, a large sample of infrared starburst galaxies using both the PEGASE v2.0 and STARBURST99 codes was used to generate the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the young star clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI

M. Newberg,Alexei V. Filippenko,Thomas Matheson,Michael A. Dopita,Warrick J. Couch +33 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a light-curve width-corrected magnitudes as a function of redshift of distant (z = 0.35-0.46) supernovae to obtain a global measurement of the mass density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurements of the Cosmological Parameters Omega and Lambda from the First 7 Supernovae at z >= 0.35
Saul Perlmutter,S. Gabi,G. Goldhaber,D. E. Groom,I. M. Hook,A. G. Kim,M. Y. Kim,Janice C. Lee,C. R. Pennypacker,I. Small,A. Goobar,R. Pain,Richard S. Ellis,R. G. McMahon,B. J. Boyle,P. S. Bunclark,D. Carter,Mike Irwin,Karl Glazebrook,Heidi Jo Newberg,Alexei V. Filippenko,Thomas Matheson,Michael A. Dopita,W. J. Couch +23 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a technique to systematically discover and study high-redshift supernovae that can be used to measure the cosmological parameters has been developed, based on the initial seven of >28 supernova discovered to date in the Supernova Cosmology Project.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Strong Lines to Estimate Abundances in Extragalactic H II Regions and Starburst Galaxies
Lisa J. Kewley,Michael A. Dopita +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a combination of stellar population synthesis and photoionization models to develop a set of ionization parameter and abundance diagnostics based only on the use of the strong optical emission lines.
