Abstract: Moderately luminous starbursts in the nearby universe often occur in disk galaxies that are at most subject to mild external perturbations. An investigation of this type of galaxy leads to a better understanding of starburst triggering mechanisms and the resulting star formation processes, and provides useful comparisons to more extreme starbursts seen at high redshifts.
