The Young Star Cluster population of M51 with LEGUS: I. A comprehensive study of cluster formation and evolution

M. Messa, A. Adamo, G. Östlin +34

Recently acquired WFC3 UV (F275W and F336W) imaging mosaics under the Legacy Extragalactic UV Survey (LEGUS) combined with archival ACS data of M51 are used to study the young star…

Witnessing galaxy assembly in an extended z~3 structure

Michele Fumagalli, Ruari Mackenzie, James Trayford +9

We present new observations acquired with the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer instrument on the Very Large Telescope in a quasar field that hosts a high column-density damped Lyα…

MUSE sneaks a peek at extreme ram-pressure events - III. Tomography of UGC 6697, a massive galaxy falling into Abell 1367

Guido Consolandi, Giuseppe Gavazzi, Matteo Fossati +4

We present the MUSE observations of UGC 6697, a giant (Mstar 10^{10} Msol) spiral galaxy infalling in the nearby cluster Abell 1367. During its high velocity transit through the in…

Exploring the IMF of star clusters: a joint SLUG and LEGUS effort

G. Ashworth, M. Fumagalli, M. R. Krumholz +14

We present the implementation of a Bayesian formalism within the Stochastically Lighting Up Galaxies (SLUG) stellar population synthesis code, which is designed to investigate vari…

Effective Radii of Young, Massive Star Clusters in Two LEGUS Galaxies

J. E. Ryon, J. S. Gallagher, L. J. Smith +15

We present a study of the effective (half-light) radii and other structural properties of a systematically selected sample of young, massive star clusters (YMCs, $5\times10^3…

Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey with The Hubble Space Telescope. Stellar cluster catalogues and first insights into cluster formation and evolution in NGC 628

A. Adamo, J. E. Ryon, M. Messa +53

We report the large effort which is producing comprehensive high-level young star cluster (YSC) catalogues for a significant fraction of galaxies observed with the Legacy ExtraGala…

A measurement of the z = 0 UV background from H fluorescence

Michele Fumagalli, Francesco Haardt, Tom Theuns +4

We report the detection of extended Halpha emission from the tip of the HI disk of the nearby edge-on galaxy UGC 7321, observed with the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) in…

The COS-Halos Survey: Metallicities in the Low-Redshift Circumgalactic Medium

J. Xavier Prochaska, Jessica K. Werk, Gabor Worseck +8

We analyze new far-ultraviolet spectra of 13 quasars from the z~0.2 COS-Halos survey that cover the HI Lyman limit of 14 circumgalactic medium (CGM) systems. These data yield preci…

Angular momentum evolution of galaxies over the past 10-Gyr: A MUSE and KMOS dynamical survey of 400 star-forming galaxies from z=0.3-1.7

Mark Swinbank, Chris Harrison, James Trayford +23

We present a MUSE and KMOS dynamical study 405 star-forming galaxies at redshift z=0.28-1.65 (median redshift z=0.84). Our sample are representative of star-forming, main-sequence…
