A peculiar object in M51: fuzzy star cluster or a background galaxy?
R. A. Scheepmaker, H. J. G. L. M. Lamers, S. S. Larsen +1
Aims: We study a peculiar object with a projected position close to the nucleus of M51. It is unusually large for a star cluster in M51 and we therefore investigate the three most…
Hierarchical Star-Formation in M33: Fundamental properties of the star-forming regions
N. Bastian, B. Ercolano, M. Gieles +4
Star-formation within galaxies appears on multiple scales, from spiral structure, to OB associations, to individual star clusters, and often sub-structure within these clusters. Th…
ACS imaging of star clusters in M51. I. Identification and radius distribution
R. A. Scheepmaker, M. R. Haas, M. Gieles +3
We use HST/ACS observations of the spiral galaxy M51 in F435W, F555W and F814W to select a large sample of star clusters with accurate effective radius measurements in an area cove…
