HST's hunt for intermediate-mass black holes in star clusters
Julio Chanamé, Justice Bruursema, Rupali Chandar +3
Establishing or ruling out, either through solid mass measurements or upper limits, the presence of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) at the centers of star clusters would prof…
New Tests for Disruption Mechanisms of Star Clusters: Methods and Application to the Antennae Galaxies
S. Michael Fall, Rupali Chandar, Bradley C. Whitmore
We present new tests for disruption mechanisms of star clusters based on the bivariate mass-age distribution g(M,τ). In particular, we derive formulae for g(M,τ) for two idealized…
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…
Population Parameters of Intermediate-Age Star Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud. I. NGC 1846 and its Wide Main Sequence Turnoff
Paul Goudfrooij, Thomas H. Puzia, Vera Kozhurina-Platais +1
The Advanced Camera for Surveys on board the Hubble Space Telescope has been used to obtain deep, high-resolution images of the intermediate-age star cluster NGC 1846 in the Large…
