Multi-generation massive star-formation in NGC3576
C. R. Purcell, V. Minier, S. N. Longmore +7
Recent 1.2-mm continuum observations have shown the giant HII region NGC3576 to be embedded in the centre of an extended filamentary dust-cloud. The bulk of the filament away from…
Kinematics at the Edge of the Galactic Bulge: Evidence for Cylindrical Rotation
Christian D. Howard, R. Michael Rich, Will Clarkson +9
We present new results from BRAVA, a large scale radial velocity survey of the Galactic bulge, using M giant stars selected from the Two Micron All Sky Survey catalogue as targets…
Spitzer observations of the N157B supernova remnant and its surroundings
E. R. Micelotta, B. R. Brandl, F. P. Israel
(Aims): We study the LMC interstellar medium in the field of the nebula N157B, which contains a supernova remnant, an OB association, ionized gas, and high-density dusty filaments…
Dynamical mass segregation on a very short timescale
R. J. Allison, S. P. Goodwin, R. J. Parker +3
We discuss the observations and theory of star cluster formation to argue that clusters form dynamically cool (subvirial) and with substructure. We then perform an ensemble of simu…
The SAURON Project - XIV. No escape from V: a global and local parameter in early-type galaxy evolution
Nicholas Scott, Michele Cappellari, Roger L. Davies +13
We present the results of an investigation of the local escape velocity (Vesc) - line strength index relationship for 48 early type galaxies from the SAURON sample, the first such…
Probing Stellar Dynamics in Galactic Nuclei
M. Coleman Miller, Tal Alexander, Pau Amaro-Seoane +7
Electromagnetic observations over the last 15 years have yielded a growing appreciation for the importance of supermassive black holes (SMBH) to the evolution of galaxies, and for…
