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…
The Optical Structure of the Starburst Galaxy M82. II. Nebular Properties of the Disk and Inner-Wind
M. S. Westmoquette, J. S. Gallagher, L. J. Smith +3
(Abridged) In this second paper of the series, we present the results from optical Gemini-North GMOS-IFU and WIYN DensePak IFU spectroscopic observations of the starburst and inner…
A spectroscopic census of the M82 stellar cluster population
I. S. Konstantopoulos, N. Bastian, L. J. Smith +3
We present a spectroscopic study of the stellar cluster population of M82, the archetype starburst galaxy, based primarily on new Gemini-North multi-object spectroscopy of 49 star…
The integral field spectroscopy (IFS) wiki
M. S. Westmoquette, K. M. Exter, L. Christensen +4
In this article we present the integral field spectroscopy (IFS) wiki site, http://ifs.wikidot.com; what the wiki is, our motivation for creating it, and a short introduction to IF…
A VLT VIMOS study of the anomalous BCD Mrk 996: mapping the ionised gas kinematics and abundances
B. L. James, Y. G. Tsamis, M. J. Barlow +4
A study of the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy Mrk 996 based on high resolution optical VLT VIMOS integral field unit spectroscopy is presented. Mrk 996 displays multi-component li…
The optical structure of the starburst galaxy M82 - I: Dynamics of the disk and inner-wind
M. S. Westmoquette, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +3
[Abridged] We present Gemini-N GMOS-IFU observations of the central starburst clumps and inner wind of M82, together with WIYN DensePak IFU observations of the inner 2x0.9kpc of th…
