The Earliest Stage of Galactic Star Formation

The Earliest Stage of Galactic Star Formation

Using a recently developed technique to estimate gas temperatures ( T _SF ) in star-forming regions from large photometric surveys, we propose a diagram, analogous to the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram for individual stars, to probe the evolution of individual galaxies. On this T _SF -sSFR (specific st...
