Constraining stellar feedback: Ionized gas structures in local starburst galaxies

Stellar feedback, i.e., the return of mechanical energy from supernova explosions, and massive star and AGN winds to the interstellar medium, is one of the fundamental processes that shape galaxy evolution. Yet, some of its fundamental parameters, such as the efficiency of feedback, have not been so...
