Description
Summary:Many of the advances of the last decade in this subject have been the result of large spectroscopic surveys of galaxies on the one hand, and multi-wavelength surveys of galaxies on the other. This talk highlights applications that exploit a combination of spectroscopic and multi-wavelength diagnostics. Most applications to date have been based on spatially integrated measurements of galaxies, but the introduction of wide-field integral field spectrometers promises to extend ths approach to spatially-resolved analyses of galaxies.
