An optical--near-IR study of a triplet of super star clusters in the starburst core of M82
M. S. Westmoquette, N. Bastian, L. J. Smith +8
We present HST/STIS optical and Gemini/NIFS near-IR IFU spectroscopy, and archival HST imaging of the triplet of super star clusters (A1, A2 and A3) in the core of the M82 starburs…
Optical IFU observations of gas pillars surrounding the super star cluster NGC 3603
M. S. Westmoquette, J. E. Dale, B. Ercolano +1
We present optical integral field unit (IFU) observations of two gas pillars surrounding the Galactic young massive star cluster NGC 3603. The high S/N and spectral resolution of t…
The Lyman break analogue Haro 11: spatially resolved chemodynamics with VLT FLAMES
B. L. James, Y. G. Tsamis, J. R. Walsh +2
Using VLT/FLAMES optical integral field unit observations, we present the first spatially resolved spectroscopic study of the well known blue compact galaxy Haro11, thought to be a…
The merging dwarf galaxy UM 448: chemodynamics of the ionized gas from VLT integral field spectroscopy
B. L. James, Y. G. Tsamis, M. J. Barlow +2
Using VLT/FLAMES optical IFU observations, we present a detailed study of UM 448, a nearby Blue Compact Galaxy (BCG) previously reported to have an anomalously high N/O abundance r…
Synthetic observations of simulated pillars of creation
Barbara Ercolano, James E. Dale, Matthias Gritschneder +1
We present synthetic observations of star-forming interstellar medium structures obtained by hydrodynamic calculations of a turbulent box under the influence of an ionising radiati…
VLT/FLAMES-ARGUS observations of stellar wind--ISM cloud interactions in NGC 6357
M. S. Westmoquette, J. D. Slavin, L. J. Smith +1
We present optical/near-IR IFU observations of a gas pillar in the Galactic HII region NGC 6357 containing the young open star cluster Pismis 24. These observations have allowed us…
