Starburst Attenuation

Starburst Attenuation is a spectral attenuation law that characterizes the wavelength-dependent dimming of ultraviolet and optical light in starburst galaxies due to dust, distinguished by its steep rise in extinction toward shorter ultraviolet wavelengths and its empirical derivation from observations of intense, compact star-forming regions.
