Studying the galactic outflow in NGC 1569
M. S. Westmoquette, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher
We present deep WIYN H-alpha imaging of the dwarf irregular starburst galaxy NGC 1569, together with WIYN SparsePak spatially-resolved optical spectroscopy of the galactic outflow.…
Gemini Spectroscopy and HST Imaging of the Stellar Cluster Population in Region B of M82
I. S. Konstantopoulos, N. Bastian, L. J. Smith +3
We present new spectroscopic observations of the stellar cluster population of region B in the prototype starburst galaxy M82 obtained with the Gillett Gemini-North 8.1-metre teles…
HST/STIS spectroscopy of the environment in the starburst core of M82
M. S. Westmoquette, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +3
[Abridged] We present high-resolution optical HST/STIS observations made with two slits crossing four of the brightest starburst clumps in the vicinity of the nucleus of M82. These…
Gemini GMOS/IFU spectroscopy of NGC 1569 - II: Mapping the roots of the galactic outflow
M. S. Westmoquette, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +1
We present a set of four Gemini-North GMOS/IFU observations of the central disturbed regions of the dwarf irregular starburst galaxy NGC 1569, surrounding the well-known super star…
Gemini GMOS/IFU spectroscopy of NGC 1569 - I: Mapping the properties of a young star cluster and its environment
M. S. Westmoquette, K. M. Exter, L. J. Smith +1
[Abridged] We present Gemini-North GMOS/IFU observations of a young star cluster (cluster 10) and its environment near the centre of the dwarf irregular starburst galaxy NGC 1569.…
The Young Cluster Population of M82 Region B
L. J. Smith, N. Bastian, I. S. Konstantopoulos +6
We present observations obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on board the Hubble Space Telescope of the "fossil" starburst region B in the nearby starburst galaxy M82. By…
