An HI Threshold for Star Cluster Formation in Tidal Debris
A. Maybhate, J. Masiero, J. E. Hibbard +4
Super star clusters are young, compact star clusters found in the central regions of interacting galaxies. Recently, they have also been reported to preferentially form in certain…
From Globular Clusters to Tidal Dwarfs: Structure Formation in the Tidal Tails of Merging Galaxies
Karen Knierman, Sarah Gallagher, Jane Charlton +5
Using V and I images obtained with WFPC2/HST, we investigate compact stellar structures within tidal tails. Six regions of tidal debris in the four classic ``Toomre Sequence'' merg…
Stellar Hydrodynamics in Radiative Regions
Patrick A. Young, Karen A. Knierman, Jane R. Rigby +1
We present an analysis of the response of a radiative region to waves generated by a convective region of the star; this wave treatment of the classical problem of ``overshooting''…
On the Utter Irrelevance of LPL Graduate Students: An Unbiased Survey by Steward Observatory Graduate Students
J. J. Charfman, J. B. Bsc, K. A. Eriksen +8
We present a new analysis of the irrelevance of Lunar and Planetary Laboratory (LPL) graduate students at the University of Arizona. Based on extensive Monte Carlo simulations we f…
From Globular Clusters to Tidal Dwarfs: Structure Formation in Tidal Tails
Jane Charlton, Karen Knierman, Sally Hunsberger +4
Star clusters can be found in galaxy mergers, not only in central regions, but also in the tidal debris. In both the Eastern and Western tidal tails of NGC 3256 there are dozens of…
