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…
Connection between the Age Distributions of Star Clusters and Field Stars: A First Application to the Small Magellanic Cloud
Rupali Chandar, S. Michael Fall, Bradley C. Whitmore
We present the age distributions for star clusters and individual stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) based on data from the Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey by Zaritsky…
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…
A Genuine Intermediate-Age Globular Cluster in M33
Rupali Chandar, Thomas H. Puzia, Ata Sarajedini +1
We present deep integrated-light spectroscopy of nine M33 globular clusters taken with the Hectospec instrument at the MMT Observatory. Based on our spectroscopy and previous deep…
Hierarchical Star Formation in the Spiral Galaxy NGC 628
Bruce G. Elmegreen, Debra Meloy Elmegreen, Rupali Chandar +2
The distributions of size and luminosity for star-forming regions in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 628 are studied over a wide range of scales using progressively blurred versions o…
Kinematics of Interstellar Gas in Nearby UV-Selected Galaxies Measured with HST/STIS Spectroscopy
C. M. Schwartz, C. L. Martin, R. Chandar +3
We measure Doppler shifts of interstellar absorption lines in HST/STIS spectra of individual star clusters in nearby UV-selected galaxies. Values for systemic velocities, which are…
