Multiwavelength Characterization of the High Mass X-ray Binary Population of M31
Margaret Lazzarini, Benjamin F. Williams, Meredith Durbin +7
We present our analysis of high quality high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) candidates in M31 selected from point-source optical-counterpart candidates from the Chandra-PHAT survey catal…
The Metallicity Dependence of the High-Mass X-ray Binary Luminosity Function
Bret D. Lehmer, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Antara Basu-Zych +7
We present detailed constraints on the metallicity dependence of the high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) X-ray luminosity function (XLF). We analyze ~5 Ms of Chandra data for 55 actively…
Three-Dimensional Structure and Dust Extinction in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Petia Yanchulova Merica-Jones, Karin M. Sandstrom, L. Clifton Johnson +6
We examine the three-dimensional structure and dust extinction properties in a ~ 200 pc 100 pc region in the southwest bar of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We model a…
Mapping the Escape Fraction of Ionizing Photons Using Resolved Stars: A Much Higher Escape Fraction for NGC 4214
Yumi Choi, Julianne J. Dalcanton, Benjamin F. Williams +6
We demonstrate a new method for measuring the escape fraction of ionizing photons using Hubble Space Telescope imaging of resolved stars in NGC 4214, a local analog of high-redshif…
PHAT XX. AGB stars and other cool giants in M31 star clusters
Leo Girardi, Martha L. Boyer, L. Clifton Johnson +20
The presence of AGB stars in clusters provides key constraints for stellar models, as has been demonstrated with historical data from the Magellanic Clouds. In this work, we look f…
MCR-TRGB: A Multiwavelength-Covariant, Robust Tip of the Red Giant Branch Measurement Method
M. J. Durbin, R. L. Beaton, J. J. Dalcanton +2
We present a new method to measure colors and magnitudes of the tip of the red giant branch in multiple bandpasses simultaneously by fitting an n-dimensional Gaussian to photometry…
