Estimation of distances to stars with stellar parameters from LAMOST

Jeffrey L. Carlin, Chao Liu, Heidi Jo Newberg +15

We present a method to estimate distances to stars with spectroscopically derived stellar parameters. The technique is a Bayesian approach with likelihood estimated via comparison…

The GALEX Ultraviolet Virgo Cluster Survey (GUViCS). V. Ultraviolet diffuse emission and cirrus properties in the Virgo cluster direction

S. Boissier, A. Boselli, E. Voyer +9

CONTEXT: The Virgo direction has been observed at many wavelengths in the recent years, in particular in the ultraviolet with GALEX. The far ultraviolet (FUV) diffuse light detecte…

The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury XI: The Spatially-Resolved Recent Star Formation History of M31

Alexia R. Lewis, Andrew E. Dolphin, Julianne J. Dalcanton +15

We measure the recent star formation history (SFH) across M31 using optical images taken with the \texit{Hubble Space Telescope} as part of the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasu…

The High-Mass Stellar Initial Mass Function in M31 Clusters

Daniel R. Weisz, L. Clifton Johnson, Daniel Foreman-Mackey +16

We have undertaken the largest systematic study of the high-mass stellar initial mass function (IMF) to date using the optical color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of 85 resolved, young…

The M31 Velocity Vector. II. Radial Orbit Towards the Milky Way and Implied Local Group Mass

Roeland P. van der Marel, Mark Fardal, Gurtina Besla +5

We determine the velocity vector of M31 with respect to the Milky Way and use this to constrain the mass of the Local Group, based on HST proper-motion measurements presented in Pa…
