Evolution of Galaxies Governed by Disk Dynamics and Spiral Structure
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Extract
My major topic will be the evolutionary changes in disk galaxies caused by the continuing process of star formation. The task of interpreting observations to derive the past rate of star formation is treacherous, as I am sure will be evident in the various observational papers presented at this colloquium. Therefore, I will mention only briefly some of the basic aspects of models which have been used to discuss that past evolution.
