DOI: 10.1017/pasa.2020.16
Abstract: Abstract We illustrate the extraordinary discovery potential for extragalactic astrophysics of a far-infrared/submillimetre (far-IR/submm) all-sky spectroscopic survey with a 3-m-class space telescope. Spectroscopy provides a three-dimensional view of the Universe and allows us to take… read more here.

Star formation: Cosmic feast
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Nature Physics"
DOI: 10.1038/nphys3964
Abstract: Low-mass stars form through a process known as disk accretion, eating up material that orbits in a disk around them. It turns out that the same mechanism also describes the formation of more massive stars. read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41550-017-0352-5
Abstract: Early-type galaxies (ETGs) contain most of the stars present in the local Universe and, above a stellar mass content of ~5 × 1010 solar masses, vastly outnumber spiral galaxies such as the Milky Way. These massive spheroidal galaxies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41550-018-0558-1
Abstract: Understanding how and why star formation turns off in massive galaxies is a major challenge for studies of galaxy evolution. Many theoretical explanations have been proposed, but a definitive consensus is yet to be reached. read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41586-018-0329-2
Abstract: The chemical compositions of stars encode those of the gas from which they formed, providing important clues regarding the formation histories of galaxies. A powerful diagnostic is the abundance of α elements (O, Mg, Si,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42005-020-00493-0
Abstract: Observations of the interstellar medium are key to deciphering the physical processes regulating star formation in galaxies. However, observational uncertainties and detection limits can bias the interpretation unless carefully modeled. Here I re-analyze star formation… read more here.
