Looking for obscured young star clusters in NCG 1313

M. Messa, D. Calzetti, A. Adamo +7

Using recently acquired HST NIR observations (J, Pa and H bands) of the nearby galaxy NGC1313, we investigate the timescales required by a young star cluster to emerge from its…

Dust Temperature of Compact Star-forming Galaxies at in 3D-{\it HST}/CANDELS

Zuyi Chen, Guanwen Fang, Zesen Lin +3

Recent simulation studies suggest that the compaction of star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at high redshift might be a critical process, during which the central bulge is being rapidly…

New Constraints on the Origin of Surface Brightness Profile Breaks of Disk Galaxies from MaNGA

Yimeng Tang, Qianhui Chen, Hong-Xin Zhang +6

In an effort to probe the origin of surface brightness profile (SBP) breaks widely observed in nearby disk galaxies, we carry out a comparative study of stellar population profiles…

Physical Properties of H II Regions in M51 from Spectroscopic Observations

Peng Wei, Hu Zou, Xu Kong +13

M51 and NGC 5195 is an interacting system that can be explored in great details with ground-based telescopes. The H II regions in M51 were observed using the 2.16 m telescope of th…

The Most Predictive Physical Properties for the Stellar Population Radial Profiles of Nearby Galaxies

Guangwen Chen, Hong-Xin Zhang, Xu Kong +5

We present a study on the radial profiles of D4000,luminosity-weighted stellar ages ,and luminosity-weighted stellar metallicities of 3654 nearby galaxies($0.01<z<0.…

The Local Star Formation Rate Surface Density And Metallicity Relation For Star-forming Galaxies

Berzaf B. Teklu, Yulong Gao, Xu Kong +2

We study the relations between gas-phase metallicity (), local stellar mass surface density (), and the local star formation surface density () in a sample of…

Dust Attenuation Curve for Local Subgalactic Star-forming Regions

Berzaf B. Teklu, Zesen Lin, Xu Kong +5

We compile a sample of about 157,000 spaxels from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at the Apache Point Observatory survey to derive the average dust attenuation curve for subgalactic st…

A Variant Stellar-to-nebular Dust Attenuation Ratio on Subgalactic and Galactic Scales

Zesen Lin, Xu Kong

The state-of-the-art geometry models of stars/dust suggest that dust attenuation toward nebular regions () is always larger than that of stellar regions ().…
