Giant star-forming regions in interacting galaxies

The most violent processes of star formation can be found in interacting galaxies, where gas compression can trigger the formation of giant star-forming regions. Using high-resolution spectroscopic information from MIKE/Magellan and multi- slit data from GM OS/Gemini-South, we propose to improve our...
