HST/ACS imaging of M82: A comparison of mass and size distribution functions of the younger nuclear and older disk clusters
Y. D. Mayya, R. Romano, L. H. Rodriguez-Merino +3
We present the results obtained from an objective search for stellar clusters, both in the currently active nuclear starburst region, and in the post-starburst disk of M82. Images…
Are the compact star clusters in M82 evolving towards globular clusters?
Y. D. Mayya, D. Rosa-Gonzalez, L. Rodriguez +3
Recent HST/ACS images of M82 covering the entire galaxy have been used to detect star clusters. The galaxy is known to contain a young population (age < 10 Myr) in its starburst nu…
Near-Infrared Surface Photometry of a Sample of Barred Galaxies
Dimitri Gadotti, Lia Athanassoula, Luis Carrasco +3
We have obtained deep J and Ks images of a sample of nine barred galaxies in order to collect a reliable and homogeneous set of images to which N-body simulations of barred galaxie…
A search for a counterpart of the unidentified gamma-ray source 3EG J2020+4017 (2CG078+2)
Martin C. Weisskopf, Douglas A. Swartz, Alberto Carraminana +7
We report observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of a field in the gamma$-Cygni supernova remnant (SNR78.2+2.1) centered on the cataloged location of the unidentified, bri…
The Star Formation History of the Disk of the Starburst galaxy M82
Y. D. Mayya, A. Bressan, L. Carrasco +1
Spectroscopic, photometric and dynamical data of the inner 3 kpc part of the starburst galaxy M82 are analyzed in order to investigate the star formation history of the stellar dis…
Molecular Gas, Kinematics, and OB Star Formation in the Spiral Arms of the Southern Milky Way
A. Luna, L. Bronfman, L. Carrasco +1
The rotation curve for the IV galactic quadrant, within the solar circle, is derived from the Columbia University - U. de Chile CO(J=1-0) survey of molecular gas. A new sampling, f…
