The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury II. Tracing the Inner M31 Halo with Blue Horizontal Branch Stars

Benjamin F. Williams, Julianne J. Dalcanton, Eric F. Bell +7

We attempt to constrain the shape of M31's inner stellar halo by tracing the surface density of blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars at galactocentric distances ranging from 2 kpc to…

PARSEC: stellar tracks and isochrones with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolution Code

A. Bressan, P. Marigo, L. Girardi +4

We present the updated version of the code used to compute stellar evolutionary tracks in Padova. It is the result of a thorough revision of the major input physics, together with…

The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury I: Bright UV Stars in the Bulge of M31

Philip Rosenfield, L. Clifton Johnson, Léo Girardi +20

As part of the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury (PHAT) multi-cycle program, we observed a 12' \times 6.5' area of the bulge of M31 with the WFC3/UVIS filters F275W and F336W.…
