VLT-SINFONI sub-kpc study of the star formation in local LIRGs and ULIRGs Analysis of the global ΣSFR structure and characterisation of individual star-forming clumps

We present a two-dimensional study of star formation at kiloparsec and sub-kiloparsec scales of a sample of local (z < 0.1) luminous (10) and ultraluminous (7) infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs), based on near-infrared VLT-SINFONI integral field spectroscopy (IFS). We obtained integrated measurement...
