The Early Expansion of Cluster Cores

N. Bastian, M. Gieles, S. P. Goodwin +4

The observed properties of young star clusters, such as the core radius and luminosity profile, change rapidly during the early evolution of the clusters. Here we present observati…

Gemini Spectroscopic Survey of Young Star Clusters in Merging/Interacting Galaxies. II. NGC 3256 Clusters

Gelys Trancho, Nate Bastian, Bryan W. Miller +1

We present Gemini optical spectroscopy of 23 young star clusters in NGC3256. We find that the cluster ages range are from few Myr to ~150 Myr. All these clusters are relatively mas…

Gemini Spectroscopic Survey of Young Star Clusters in Merging/Interacting Galaxies. I. NGC 3256 Tidal-Tail Clusters

Gelys Trancho, Nate Bastian, Francois Schweizer +1

We present Gemini optical spectroscopy of three young star clusters in the western tidal tail of NGC3256. Compact star clusters (as opposed to dwarf-galaxy candidates) in tidal tai…
