The Hubble Deep Field South Flanking Fields

Ray A. Lucas, Stefi A. Baum, Thomas M. Brown +22

As part of the Hubble Deep Field South program, a set of shorter 2-orbit observations were obtained of the area adjacent to the deep fields. The WFPC2 flanking fields cover a conti…

Using M32 to Study Rapid Phases of Stellar Evolution

Thomas M. Brown, Henry C. Ferguson, Allen V. Sweigart +2

The compact elliptical galaxy M32 offers a unique testing ground for theories of stellar evolution. Because of its proximity, solar-blind UV observations can resolve the hot evolve…

Lyman Break Galaxies in the NGST Era

Henry C. Ferguson, Mark Dickinson, Casey Papovich

With SIRTF and NGST in the offing, it is interesting to examine what the stellar populations of z~3 galaxies models imply for the existence and nature of Lyman-break galaxies at hi…

Lyman Break Galaxies and the Reionization of the Intergalactic Medium

Henry C. Ferguson, Mark Dickinson, Casey Papovich

Near-infrared observations of Lyman-break galaxies at redshifts z~3 are beginning to provide constraints on ages, star-formation histories, dust content, metallicities, and stellar…

Photospheric Abundances of the Hot Stars in NGC1399 and Limits on the Fornax Cluster Cooling Flow

Thomas M. Brown, Henry C. Ferguson, Robert W. O'Connell +1

We present far-UV spectroscopy of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1399, obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. Of all quiescent ellipticals, NGC 1399 has the str…
