OTELO is a survey of emission-line objects that will be carried out using tunable filters with OSIRIS at the GTC. The survey will have a deep impact on...
Quantifying Star Formation Activity in the Inner 1 kpc of Local MIR Bright QSOs
We examine star formation activity in a distant (z 0.1) and flux-limited sample of quasars (QSOs). Midinfrared (MIR) spectral diagnostics at high spatial...
Radio emission during the formation of stellar clusters in M 33
Aims: We investigate thermal and nonthermal radio emission associated with the early formation and evolution phases of young stellar clusters (YSCs) selected by...
Radio Spectra and Star Formation Histories in HII Galaxies
A sample of actively star forming H II galaxies has been observed in the radio continuum and several optical bands. These galaxies are currently undergoing very...
Recent SFR calibrations and the constant SFR approximation
Aims: Star formation rate (SFR) inferences are based on the so-called constant SFR approximation, where synthesis models are required to provide a calibration...
Recent Star Formation in the Wolf-Rayet BCDG MRK 1094
We present preliminary results on high resolution Hα imaging of the Wolf-Rayet blue compact dwarf galaxy (BCDG) Mrk 1094. This galaxy presents a bar-shape...
Relative ages of Galactic globular clusters. Clues to the Milky Way formation time scales
Based on observations with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), I will present accurate relative ages for a sample of 64 Galactic globular clusters. This...
Relative lithium abundances in pre-main-sequence spectroscopic binaries
We present a study of the lithium abundance of five pre-main sequence (PMS) double-lined binaries. These binaries are composed of weak-lined T Tauri stars...
Relatively young thick disks in star-forming late-type galaxies
Aims. We trace the evolution of eight edge-on star-forming disk galaxies by analyzing stellar population properties of their thin and thick disks. These...
