Clumpy galaxies in CANDELS. II. Physical properties of UV-bright clumps at 0.5 ≤ z < 3

Studying giant star-forming clumps in distant galaxies is important to understand galaxy formation and evolution. At present, however, observers and theorists have not reached a consensus on whether the observed "clumps" in distant galaxies are the same phenomenon that is seen in simulatio...
