SPACE: the SPectroscopic All-sky Cosmic Explorer

A. Cimatti, M. Robberto, C. M. Baugh +18

We describe the scientific motivations, the mission concept and the instrumentation of SPACE, a class-M mission proposed for concept study at the first call of the ESA Cosmic-Visio…

The Dearth of UV-Bright Stars in M32: Implications for Stellar Evolution Theory

Thomas M. Brown, Ed Smith, Henry C. Ferguson +3

Using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope, we have obtained deep far-ultraviolet images of the compact elliptical galaxy M32. When combined with…

An Overdensity of Galaxies near the Most Distant Radio-Loud Quasar

W. Zheng, R. Overzier, R. J. Bouwens +41

A five square arcminute region around the luminous radio-loud quasar SDSS J0836+0054 (z=5.8) hosts a wealth of associated galaxies, characterized by very red (1.3 < i_775 - z_{850}…

Age Constraints for an M31 Globular Cluster from Main Sequence Photometry

Thomas M. Brown, Henry C. Ferguson, Ed Smith +5

We present a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of the globular cluster SKHB-312 in the Andromeda galaxy (M31), obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telesco…

Internal Color Properties of Resolved Spheroids in the Deep HST/ACS field of UGC 10214

F. Menanteau, H. C. Ford, G. D. Illingworth +30

(Abridged) We study the internal color properties of a morphologically selected sample of spheroidal galaxies taken from HST/ACS ERO program of UGC 10214 (``The Tadpole''). By taki…

Detection and Photometry of Hot Horizontal Branch Stars in the Core of M32

Thomas M. Brown, Charles W. Bowers, Randy A. Kimble +2

We present the deepest near-UV image of M32 to date, which for the first time resolves hot HB stars in an elliptical galaxy. Given the near-solar metallicity of M32, much larger th…
