The spatial distribution of star and cluster formation in M51

R. A. Scheepmaker, H. J. G. L. M. Lamers, P. Anders +1

Aims. We study the connection between spatially resolved star formation and young star clusters across the disc of M51. Methods. We combine star cluster data based on B, V, and I-b…

Diversity among other worlds: characterization of exoplanets by direct detection

J. Schneider, A. Boccaletti, A. Aylward +34

The physical characterization of exoplanets will require to take spectra at several orbital positions. For that purpose, a direct imaging capability is necessary. Direct imaging re…

The mass function of young star clusters in spiral galaxies

S. S. Larsen

The initial cluster mass function (ICMF) in spiral galaxy discs is constrained and compared with data for old globular clusters and young clusters in starbursts. It is found that t…

Multiwavelength Signatures of Cosmic Ray Acceleration by Young Supernova Remnants

Jacco Vink

An overview is given of multiwavelength observations of young supernova remnants, with a focus on the observational signatures of efficient cosmic ray acceleration. Some of the eff…

Linear wave propagation in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics

R. Keppens, Z. Meliani

The properties of linear Alfvén, slow, and fast magnetoacoustic waves for uniform plasmas in relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) are discussed, augmenting the well-known expres…

Nucleosynthesis Predictions for Intermediate-Mass AGB Stars: Comparison to Observations of Type I Planetary Nebulae

Amanda I. Karakas, Mark A. van Raai, Maria Lugaro +2

Type I planetary nebulae (PNe) have high He/H and N/O ratios and are thought to be descendants of stars with initial masses of ~3-8Msun. These characteristics indicate that the pro…
