Secular evolution and the formation of pseudobulges in disk galaxies
J Kormendy, RC Kennicutt Jr - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2004 - annualreviews.org

Comparison of Hα and UV star formation rates in the local volume: systematic discrepancies for dwarf galaxies
Using a complete sample of∼ 300 star-forming galaxies within 11 Mpc of the Milky Way, we
evaluate the consistency between star formation rates (SFRs) inferred from the far ultraviolet …
