The infrared luminosity of retired and post-starburst galaxies: A cautionary tale for star formation rate measurements
In galaxies with significant ongoing star formation there is an impressively tight correlation between total infrared luminosity (L${\mathstrut}_{TIR}$) and H$\alpha$ luminosity (L${\mathstrut}_{H\alpha}$), when H$\alpha$ is properly corrected for stellar absorption and dust attenuation. This long-s...
