Star Cluster Populations in the Outer Disks of Nearby Galaxies

Stéphane Herbert-Fort, Dennis Zaritsky, John Moustakas +3

We present a Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) imaging study that characterizes the star cluster component of nearby galaxy outer disks (beyond the optical radius R_25). Expanding on…

The Multi-Epoch Nearby Cluster Survey: type Ia supernova rate measurement in z~0.1 clusters and the late-time delay time distribution

David J. Sand, Melissa L. Graham, Chris Bildfell +8

We describe the Multi-Epoch Nearby Cluster Survey (MENeaCS), designed to measure the cluster Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) rate in a sample of 57 X-ray selected galaxy clusters, with r…

Intracluster supernovae in the Multi-epoch Nearby Cluster Survey

D. J. Sand, M. L. Graham, C. Bildfell +7

The Multi-Epoch Nearby Cluster Survey (MENeaCS) has discovered twenty-three cluster Type Ia supernovae (SNe) in the 58 X-ray selected galaxy clusters (0.05 < z < 0.15) surveyed. Fo…

H I Column Densities, Metallicities, and Dust Extinction of Metal-Strong Damped Lya Systems

Kyle F. Kaplan, J. Xavier Prochaska, Stephane Herbert-Fort +2

With the Blue Channel Spectrograph (BCS) on the MMT telescope, we have obtained spectra to the atmospheric cutoff of quasars previously known to show at least one absorption system…

The Surface Mass Density and Structure of the Outer Disk of NGC 628

Stéphane Herbert-Fort, Dennis Zaritsky, Daniel Christlein +1

We study the kinematics of GALEX-selected H_alpha knots in the outer disk (beyond R25) of NGC 628 (M74), a galaxy representative of large, undisturbed, extended UV (Type 1 XUV) dis…

Spatially Correlated Cluster Populations in the Outer Disk of NGC 3184

S. Herbert-Fort, D. Zaritsky, J. Moustakas +9

We use deep (~27.5 mag V-band point-source limiting magnitude) V- and U-band LBT imaging to study the outer disk (beyond the optical radius R_25) of the non-interacting, face-on sp…
