Shock-Enhanced C+ Emission and the Detection of H2O from Stephan's Quintet's Group-Wide Shock using Herschel
P. N. Appleton, P. Guillard, F. Boulanger +20
We present the first Herschel spectroscopic detections of the [OI]63 and [CII]158 micron fine-structure transitions, and a single para-H2O line from the 35 x 15 kpc^2 shocked inter…
Under Pressure: Star Clusters and the Neutral Hydrogen Medium of Tidal Tails
B. Mullan, A. A. Kepley, A. Maybhate +9
Using archival data from ATCA, WSRT, and the VLA, we have analyzed the HI emission of 22 tidal tail regions of the Mullan et al. sample of pairwise interacting galaxies. We have me…
Revealing a Ring-like Cluster Complex in a Tidal Tail of the Starburst Galaxy NGC 2146
A. Adamo, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +9
We report the discovery of a ring-like cluster complex in the starburst galaxy NGC 2146. The Ruby Ring, so named due to its appearance, shows a clear ring-like distribution of star…
The merger history, AGN and dwarf galaxies of Hickson Compact Group 59
I. S. Konstantopoulos, S. C. Gallagher, K. Fedotov +16
Compact group galaxies often appear unaffected by their unusually dense environment. Closer examination can, however, reveal the subtle, cumulative effects of multiple galaxy inter…
Stellar Clusters in M83: Formation, evolution, disruption and the influence of environment
N. Bastian, A. Adamo, M. Gieles +6
We study the stellar cluster population in two adjacent fields in the nearby, face-on spiral galaxy, M83, using WFC3/HST imaging. The clusters are selected through visual inspectio…
Evidence for Environmentally Dependent Cluster Disruption in M83
N. Bastian, A. Adamo, M. Gieles +8
Using multi-wavelength imaging from the Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope we study the stellar cluster populations of two adjacent fields in the nearby face-on spir…
Star Clusters as Tracers of Interactions in Stephan's Quintet (Hickson Compact Group 92)
K. Fedotov, S. C. Gallagher, I. S. Konstantopoulos +5
Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a compact group of galaxies that exhibits numerous signs of interactions between its members. Using high resolution images of SQ in B438, V606, and I814 b…
Star Clusters in the Tidal Tails of Interacting Galaxies: Cluster Populations Across a Variety of Tail Environments
B. Mullan, I. S. Konstantopoulos, A. A. Kepley +17
We have searched for compact stellar structures within 17 tidal tails in 13 different interacting galaxies using F606W- and F814W- band images from the Wide Field Planetary Camera…
