The HII Regions' Molecular Law of Star Formation
Daniela Calzetti, Drew Lapeer, Robert C. Kennicutt +28
We combine imaging data from the HST, JWST, and ground-based millimeter facilities to investigate the correlation between star formation rate (SFR) and molecular gas at the ~100 pc…
Two stellar clocks, one history: a Gaia colour-magnitude-diagram reconstruction of the solar-neighbourhood star-formation history tested against white dwarfs
Michele Cignoni, Pier Giorgio Prada Moroni, Martina Gabbanini +2
The solar-neighbourhood star-formation history (SFH) can be constrained from the colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) of non-degenerate stars and tested independently with the white-dwar…
The emerging timescale of young star clusters regulated by cluster stellar mass
Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Daniela Calzetti +23
Quantifying the timescales of star cluster emergence from their natal clouds remains one of the main challenges in understanding the star formation process. These timescales are fu…
Galaxy UV Legacy Project: Survey Description and First Insights Into NGC 4449 Recent History of Star Formation
E. Sabbi, B. Meena, P. Zeidler +18
The Galaxy UV Legacy Project (GULP) is a Cycle 28 Treasury program with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) designed to characterize resolved massive stars, OB associations, and young…
FEAST: Probing Hierarchical Star Formation with the Spatial Distributions of Young Star Clusters
Drew Lapeer, Daniela Calzetti, Kathryn Grasha +19
We apply the angular two-point correlation function (TPCF) to the spatial distribution of young star clusters (YSCs) in four nearby star forming galaxies (NGC 628, NGC 4449, M51, a…
The Spatial Evolution of Star Clusters in NGC 628 with JWST
Anne S. M. Buckner, Ana Duarte-Cabral, Angela Adamo +23
We examine the spatial distribution of star clusters in NGC 628 using the statistical tool INDICATE to quantify clustering tendencies. Our sample, based on HST and JWST observation…
