HII regions are fundamental units of the matter cycle in galaxies and their optical emission serves as the main lens through which we study star formation and chemical enrichment across the Universe. They are the sites where ionising radiation and stellar winds have their main impact, turbulence is injected, and heavy elements are dispersed into the interstellar medium. The sizes and internal...

Nearby galaxies observed at high spatial resolution with JWST, ALMA, and MUSE allow us to address fundamental questions related to the influence of young stars on their surrounding interstellar medium (ISM), from cloud to galactic scales: How far can ionizing photons travel, and what physical mechanisms favor their escape from HII regions? How do such processes shape the ISM and influence...

The interstellar and circumgalactic media are the two important reservoirs that fuel star formation in galaxies. Their highly turbulent internal dynamics are shaped by feedback processes such as supernova (SN) explosions and subsequently accelerated cosmic rays (CRs). With recent advances in the hydrodynamical modeling of the interactions between CRs, magnetic fields, and their environment, it...

Modern computational advancements have brought about a resurgence in the consideration of cosmic-rays for driving galactic outflows. This is particularly important in normal galaxies whose thermal and radiation pressure alone is insufficient to expel gas and dust from the disk. Synchrotron radio emission is one of the only—and by far the most accessible—direct tracers of cosmic-rays in...

Despite the many successes of cosmological galaxy formation and evolution simulations, they commonly implement baryonic feedback in a phenomenological manner by calibrating “boosting” parameters, which somewhat diminishes their predictive power and restricts their usefulness in interpreting observational data.

Feedback in the form of outflows is believed to be a key ingredient in galaxy evolution. In cosmic noon galaxies, outflows have mainly been detected - and extensively studied - in the ionised gas phase. However, it has been surmised that a large fraction of outflowing mass may be in molecular gas form, as suggested by results of luminous but rare AGNs and quasars. To gain insights into the...

Massive, large-scale galactic outflows are well known to be important to galaxy evolution.

Understanding what regulates star formation in galaxies is a fundamental question in astrophysics. However, a simple estimate of the star formation rate (SFR) that a galaxy like ours should have overpredicts the observed SFR by nearly two orders of magnitude.

The period between z~3-6 (“cosmic high-noon”), when the Universe was younger than 2 Gyr, is a crucial transitional phase in galaxy evolution as galaxies undergo rapid and deep transformations, leading to “cosmic noon” (z~1-3), the peak of star formation and AGN activities.
