Detailed Anatomy of Galaxies (DAGAL)
Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
We propose an ambitious network based on a combination of training through high-level astrophysical research and a comprehensive package of complimentary skills training. Our network exploits a unique data set: a combination of very deep mid-infrared imaging of over 2300 local galaxies which we are obtaining with the Spitzer Space Telescope, with ground- and space-based UV, optical, and radio data ...

Dust and the Efficiency of the Photoelectric Effect in the Interstellar Medium of Nearby Galaxies with KINGFISH (DEEPKINGFISH)
Start date: Oct 3, 2011, End date: Oct 2, 2013,
"Understanding the thermal balance of the interstellar medium (ISM) is of fundamental importance for studying star-formation and the evolution of galaxies over the history of the Universe. The photoelectric effect is the dominant source of heat in the ISM and its efficiency is determined by the properties of interstellar dust grains (their abundance, size distribution and charge state, primarily) ...
