Tidal Tails in Interacting Galaxies: Formation of Compact Stellar Structures
B. Mullan, J. C. Charlton, I. S. Konstantopoulos +17
We have used V- and I- band images from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to identify compact stellar clusters within the tidal tails of twelve different interacting galaxies. The s…
Young star clusters in interacting galaxies - NGC 1487 and NGC 4038/4039
Sabine Mengel, Matthew D. Lehnert, Niranjan A. Thatte +3
We estimate the dynamical masses of several young (~10 Myr) massive star clusters in two interacting galaxies, NGC 4038/4039 ("The Antennae") and NGC 1487, under the assumption of…
A Comparison of Optical and Near-Infrared Colours of Magellanic Cloud Star Clusters with Predictions of Simple Stellar Population Models
P. M. Pessev, P. Goudfrooij, T. H. Puzia +1
We present integrated JHK_s 2MASS photometry and a compilation of integrated-light optical photoelectric measurements for 84 star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds. These clusters…
Towards a calibration of SSP models from the optical to the mid-infrared
P. Pessev, P. Goudfrooij, T. Puzia +1
Our knowledge about unresolved stellar systems comes from comparing integrated-light properties to SSP models. Therefore it is crucial to calibrate the latter as well as possible b…
Star Cluster Demographics. I. A General Framework and Application to the Antennae Galaxies
Bradley C. Whitmore, Rupali Chandar, S. Michael Fall
We present a framework for understanding the demographics of star cluster systems, and develop a toy model which incorporates a universal initial power law mass function, selected…
A Database of 2MASS Near-Infrared Colors of Magellanic Cloud Star Clusters
Peter M. Pessev, Paul Goudfrooij, Thomas H. Puzia +1
The (rest-frame) near-IR domain contains important stellar population diagnostics and is often used to estimate masses of galaxies at low as well as high redshifts. However, many s…
