Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Circumnuclear Star Clusters in M83
Aida Wofford, Rupali Chandar, Claus Leitherer
We analyze archival HST/STIS/FUV-MAMA imaging and spectroscopy of 13 compact star clusters within the circumnuclear starburst region of M83, the closest such example. We compare th…
The Massive Star Content of Circumnuclear Star Clusters in M83
Aida Wofford, Rupali Chandar, Claus Leitherer
The circumnuclear starburst of M83 (NGC 5236), the nearest such example (4.6 Mpc), constitutes an ideal site for studying the massive star IMF at high metallicity (12+log[O/H]=9.1$…
A New Method for Measuring the Upper End of the IMF
Daniela Calzetti, Rupali Chandar, Janice C. Lee +3
A method is presented here for investigating variations in the upper end of the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) by probing the production rate of ionizing photons in unresolved…
The Luminosity, Mass, and Age Distributions of Compact Star Clusters in M83 Based on HST/WFC3 Observations
Rupali Chandar, Bradley C. Whitmore, Hwihyun Kim +21
The newly installed Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope has been used to obtain multi-band images of the nearby spiral galaxy M83. These new observations are t…
The Formation of Spheroids in Early-Type Spirals: Clues From Their Globular Clusters
Aparna Maybhate, Paul Goudfrooij, Rupali Chandar +1
We use deep Hubble Space Telescope images taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) in the F475W and F814W filters to investigate the globular cluster systems in four edge-o…
Galaxy evolution in a complex environment: a multi-wavelength study of HCG 7
I. S. Konstantopoulos, S. C. Gallagher, K. Fedotov +17
[Abridged] The environment where galaxies are found heavily influences their evolution. Close groupings, like the cores of galaxy clusters or compact groups, evolve in ways far mor…
