On the Nature of the HII Regions in the Extended Ultraviolet Disc of NGC 4625
Q. E. Goddard, F. Bresolin, R. C. Kennicutt +2
Using deep Subaru/FOCAS spectra of 34 HII regions in both the inner and outer parts of the extended ultraviolet (XUV) disc galaxy NGC 4625 we have measured an abundance gradient ou…

On the Nature of Star Formation at Large Galactic Radii
Q. E. Goddard, R. C. Kennicutt, E. V. Ryan-Weber
We have compared far-ultraviolet (FUV), near-ultraviolet (NUV), and Halpha measurements for star forming regions in 21 galaxies, in order to characterise the properties of their di…

On the Fraction of Star Clusters Surviving the Embedded Phase
Q. E. Goddard, N. Bastian, R. C. Kennicutt
In this paper we derive ages and masses for 276 clusters in the merger galaxy NGC 3256. This was achieved by taking accurate photometry in four wavebands from archival HST images.…
