On the Interpretation of the Age Distribution of Star Clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud

M. Gieles, H. J. G. L. M. Lamers, S. F. Portegies Zwart

We re-analyze the age distribution (dN/dt) of star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using age determinations based on the Magellanic Cloud Photometric Survey. For ages…

The radii of thousands of star clusters in M51 with HST/ACS

R. A. Scheepmaker, M. Gieles, M. R. Haas +3

We exploit the superb resolution of the new HST/ACS mosaic image of M51 to select a large sample of young (< 1 Gyr) star clusters in the spiral disk, based on their sizes. The imag…
