    Statistical properties of H II regions in the disc of M100
    From a new mosaic image in the Hα line of the complete disc of the spiral galaxy M100, a catalogue is composed listing 1948 individual H II regions. I give...

    Statistical Properties of Highly Luminous HII Regions in the Interacting Zone of the Antennae Galaxies, and Comparison with the Molecular Cloud Component
    We have used the package CLOUDPROPS (Rosolowsky & Leroy 2008) in order to identify clouds, which are contained in data cubes of molecular/Hα line emission, and...

    Statistical redshift of the very-high-energy blazar S5 0716+714
    Context. Blazars are the most numerous class of very-high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emitters. At present, measured redshifts are available only for...

    Statistical studies of HII regions in nearby galaxies. I. Spitzer near-IR luminosities and temperatures, compared with Hα luminosities, from selected HII regions in M100
    Aims: We systematically study the relations between the Hα luminosity and the near-IR luminosity and temperature of a set of selected HII regions in the disc of...

    Statistical Synthesis Models
    In this contribution we evaluate the minimal cluster mass for which the effects of an incomplete sampling of the Initial Mass Function (IMF) cannot be neglected...

    Statistics and multiwavelength synthesis models: towards a new generation of synthesis models
    In this contribution I present my current work on a new generation of evolutionary synthesis models that compute the multiwavelength energy distribution (from...

    Statistics and properties of H II regions in a sample of grand design galaxies I. Luminosity functions.
    We present new high quality continuum-subtracted Hα images of the grand-design galaxies NGC 157, NGC 3631, NGC 6764 and NGC 6951. We have determined the...

    Statistics and properties of H II regions in a sample of grand-design galaxies. II. Physical properties.
    We describe statistical properties of complete samples of HII regions in the grand-design spiral galaxies NGC 157, NGC 3631, NGC 6764 and NGC 6951. We use the...

    Stellar and Gas Kinematics in the Core and Bar Regions of M100
    Two-dimensional maps of the stellar and gas kinematics of the bar and starbursting circumnuclear region in the barred spiral galaxy M100 are presented. In this...
