Star Formation Triggering Mechanisms in Dwarf Galaxies: The Far-Ultraviolet, H-alpha, and HI Morphology of Holmberg II
S. G. Stewart, M. N. Fanelli, G. G. Byrd +8
Far-UV (FUV), H-alpha, and HI observations of dwarf galaxy Holmberg II are used to trace the interaction between sites of massive star formation and the neutral and ionized compone…
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope: Instrument and Data Characteristics
Theodore P. Stecher, Robert H. Cornett, Michael R. Greason +16
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) was flown as part of the Astro observatory on the Space Shuttle Columbia in December 1990 and again on the Space Shuttle Endeavor in March 1…
Ultraviolet Signatures of Tidal Interaction in the Giant Spiral Galaxy, M101
William H. Waller, Ralph C. Bohlin, Robert H. Cornett +10
We present new evidence for tidal interactions having occurred in the disk of M101 in the last 10^8 - 10^9 years. Recent imaging of the far-ultraviolet emission from M101 by the Sh…
Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) Observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Robert H. Cornett, Michael R. Greason, Jesse K. Hill +9
A mosaic of four UIT far-UV (FUV; 1620A) images, which covers most of the SMC bar, is presented, with derived stellar and HII region photometry. The UV morphology of the Bar shows…
Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope Observations of OB Stars in the N 11 Region of the LMC
J. Wm. Parker, J. K. Hill, R. C. Bohlin +5
We present an analysis of far-ultraviolet (FUV: 130-180 nm) and optical (U, B, and V) data of the stellar and nebular content of the OB associations LH 9, 10, and 13 in the Large M…
UV Colors and Extinctions of HII Regions in the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51)
J. K. Hill, W. H. Waller, R. H. Cornett +9
Far-UV (1520 ang.), U, H-alpha, and R images of the interacting Sbc spiral galaxy M51 were obtained by the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) and at Mt. Laguna Observatory. The mu…
