Diffuse, Non-Thermal X-ray Emission from the Galactic Star Cluster Westerlund 1
Michael P. Muno, Casey Law, J. Simon Clark +4
We present the diffuse X-ray emission identified in Chandra observations of the young, massive Galactic star cluster Westerlund 1. After removing point-like X-ray sources down to a…
Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy of the Edge-On Sbc Galaxy UGC10043: Evidence for a Galactic Wind and a Peculiar Triaxial Bulge
L. D. Matthews, R. de Grijs
We present new optical imaging and spectroscopy of the peculiar, edge-on Sbc galaxy UGC10043. B & R imaging reveals that the inner bulge of UGC10043 is elongated perpendicular to t…
The Missing Link in Star Cluster Evolution
Richard de Grijs, Nate Bastian, Henny J. G. L. M. Lamers
The currently most popular models for the dynamical evolution of star clusters predict that the power-law Cluster Luminosity Functions (CLFs) of young star cluster systems will be…
UV-Optical Pixel Maps of Face-On Spiral Galaxies -- Clues for Dynamics and Star Formation Histories
Paul B. Eskridge, Jay A. Frogel, Violet A. Taylor +8
UV and optical images of the face-on spiral galaxies NGC 6753 and NGC 6782 reveal regions of strong on-going star formation that are associated with structures traced by the old st…
Evolutionary Synthesis Modelling of Young Star Clusters in Merging Galaxies
Peter Anders, Uta Fritze - v. Alvensleben, Richard de Grijs
The observational properties of globular cluster systems (GCSs) are vital tools to investigate the violent star formation histories of their host galaxies. This violence is thought…
