Determining star formation rates for infrared galaxies

GH Rieke, A Alonso-Herrero, BJ Weiner… - The Astrophysical …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
We show that measures of star formation rates (SFRs) for infrared galaxies using either
single-band 24 μm or extinction-corrected Paα luminosities are consistent in the total …
