1 SURE 2006Julie WardlowSearching for Starburst Galaxies in the Local Universe

2 SURE 2006Julie WardlowSearching for Starburst Galaxies in the Local Universe Starburst Galaxies M82 – The Cigar Nebular NGC 4038/4039 – The Antennae

3 SURE 2006Julie WardlowSearching for Starburst Galaxies in the Local Universe Flux and Luminosity A brief interlude Luminosity is a measure of the amount of light RELEASED from a source Flux is a measure of the amount of light that REACHES Earth So two objects of equal luminosity may have different fluxes We need to know the distance to a source to calculate the luminosity
