Scientific paper

We have a Galaxy Evolution Explorer-Sloan Digital Sky Survey sample that isolates intermediate redshift QSOs. Some 1% of the spectroscopic sample consists of galaxies in starburst or post-starburst stages. We discuss the most luminous 10 of these, which have redshifts between 0.18 and 0.6. We present spectroscopic measures and derive star formation rates. Two of the six with Mg II coverage reveal outflows in this line. None shows any sign of active galactic nucleus activity. We discuss their star formation histories and their place in galaxy evolution.
