Stellar populations in NGC 5128 with the VLT: evidence for recent star formation

M. Rejkuba, D. Minniti, D. R. Silva +1

We resolve stars of the nearest giant elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 using VLT with FORS1 and ISAAC. We construct deep U, V and Ks color-magnitude and color-color diagrams in two diffe…
