The Mass Function of Supergiant Molecular Complexes and Implications for Forming Young Massive Star Clusters in the Antennae (NGC 4038/4039)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used previously published observations of the CO emission from the Antennae (NGC 4038/4039) to study the detailed properties of the supergiant molecular complexes with the goal of understanding the formation of young massive star clusters.
HST observations of the LMC compact HII region N11A
M. Heydari-Malayeri,Vassilis Charmandaris,L. Deharveng,Michael R. Rosa,Daniel Schaerer,Hans Zinnecker +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a study of the LMC compact HII region N11A using Hubble Space Telescope imaging observations which reveal its unknown nebular and stellar features, including the presence of a sharp ionization front extending over more than 4'' (1 pc) and fine structure filaments as well as larger loops indicate an environment typical of massive star formation regions.
The Detection of Crystalline Silicates in Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies
Henrik Spoon,Alexander G. G. M. Tielens,Lee Armus,Gregory C. Sloan,Ben Sargent,Jan Cami,Vassilis Charmandaris,Vassilis Charmandaris,J. R. Houck,B. T. Soifer +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, forsterite (Mg2SiO4), the magnesium-rich end member of the olivines, was detected in a sample of ultraluminous infrared galaxies.
Blue compact dwarf galaxies with Spitzer : the infrared/radio properties
Yanling Wu,Vassilis Charmandaris,Vassilis Charmandaris,James R. Houck,Jeronimo Bernard-Salas,Vianney Lebouteiller,Bernhard R. Brandl,Duncan Farrah +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the correlation between radio, mid-infrared and farinfrared properties for a sample of 28 blue compact dwarfs and low-metallicity star-forming galaxies observed by Spitzer was studied.
Studying the evolution of galaxies in compact groups over the past 3 Gyr – I. Nuclear activity
Theodoros Bitsakis,Deborah Dultzin,Laure Ciesla,Yair Krongold,Vassilis Charmandaris,Andreas Zezas,Andreas Zezas,Andreas Zezas +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of the nuclear activity and how it has been affected by the dense environment of the groups was studied. And the authors found that the depletion of gas, due to past star formation and tidal stripping, is the major mechanism driving the evolution in compact groups of galaxies.
