论文摘要
星系类型和随红移的发展之间的恒星形成速率各不相同。宇宙中的大多数恒星都是在一个异常高的星形活动的情节中形成的，通常称为Starburst。我们在这里总结了Starbursts的基本定义和一般特性，以及它们的观察性特征。我们概述了本地宇宙和高红移中的Starburst星系的主要类型，在那里它们更为普遍。我们指定本地样本和遥远样本之间的相似性和差异，并指定可能的进化链接。我们依靠最新的观察结果来描述Starburst星系在宇宙电离时代的作用。
The rate of star formation varies between galaxy types and evolves with redshift. Most stars in the universe have formed in episodes of an exceptionally high star-forming activity, commonly called a starburst. We here summarize basic definitions and general properties of starbursts, together with their observational signatures.We overviewthe main types of starburst galaxies both in the local universe and at high redshift, where they were much more common. We specify similarities and differences between the local and distant samples and specify the possible evolutionary links. We describe the role of starburst galaxies in the era of cosmic reionization, relying on the most recent observational results.
