I review determinations of star formation rates (SFR) from the ultraviolet to the infrared, in the context of their use for galaxies and galaxy surveys. The mid-infrared SFR indicators have garnered interest in recent years thanks to the Spitzer capabilities and the opportunities offered by the upcoming Herschel Space Telescope. I discuss what we have learned in the mid-infrared from studies of local galaxies combining Spitzer with HST and other data.

  1. First Results from the TNG50 Simulation: Galactic outflows driven by supernovae and black hole feedback

    astro-ph.GA 2019-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    TNG50 shows galactic outflow mass loading is non-monotonic with stellar mass, rising rapidly above 10^10.5 Msun due to black hole feedback, and produces fast multi-phase outflows with emergent collimation.

  2. Clumpy Disk, Interloper, or Merger? Nature of a Distant Galaxy Pair at 5 kpc Projected Separation

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 conditional novelty 4.0

    Multi-band imaging and Keck spectroscopy identify a z=0.92 galaxy pair as a physical merger at ~5 kpc projected separation with merger-induced star formation.
