Star Formation in Sculptor Group Dwarf Irregular Galaxies and the Nature of "Transition" Galaxies
Evan D. Skillman, Stephanie Cote, Bryan W. Miller
We present new H-alpha narrow band imaging of the HII regions in eight Sculptor Group dwarf irregular (dI) galaxies. Comparing the Sculptor Group dIs to the Local Group dIs, we fin…
ISM Abundances in Sculptor Group Dwarf Irregular Galaxies
Evan D. Skillman, Stephanie Cote, Bryan W. Miller
Using the CTIO 4-m telescope, we have obtained optical spectra of HII regions in five Sculptor Group dwarf irregular galaxies. We derive oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur abundances fro…
The Luminosity Functions of Old and Intermediate-Age Globular Clusters in NGC 3610
B. C. Whitmore, F. Schweizer, A. Kundu +1
The WFPC2 Camera on board HST has been used to obtain high-resolution images of NGC 3610, a dynamically young elliptical galaxy. These observations supersede shorter, undithered HS…
SAURON Observations of Disks in Spheroids
M. Bureau, R. Bacon, E. Emsellem +9
The panoramic integral-field spectrograph SAURON is currently being used to map the stellar kinematics, gaseous kinematics, and stellar populations of a large number of early-type…
Integral Field Spectroscopy with the Gemini 8-m Telescopes
B. W. Miller, J. Turner, M. Takamiya +2
We give an overview of the current and future IFU capabilities on the Gemini 8-m telescopes. The telescopes are well-suited to integral field spectroscopy and both telescopes will…
