Star-Galaxy Classification in Deep LSST Data with Random Forest: A Pilot study on the Data Preview 1 Release

M. Gatto, V. Ripepi, M. Bellazzini +2

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce unprecedentedly deep and wide photometric catalogs, enabling transformative studies of faint stell…

STEP survey: III. STEPping stones between the clouds: the star formation history of the Magellanic Bridge

F. Ficara, V. Ripepi, M. Cignoni +8

The Magellanic Clouds (MCs) offer a unique laboratory for studying galaxy interaction and the evolution of dwarf galaxies. By investigating when and how stars formed, the star form…

RGB Tip distance to the faint gas-rich dwarf KK 153

M. Bellazzini, G. Beccari, R. Pascale +4

KK 153 is a star-forming dwarf galaxy that has been recently proposed as a new member of the sparsely populated class of gas-rich ultra faint dwarfs, lying in the outskirts of the…

DDO68-C: HST confirms yet another companion of the isolated dwarf galaxy DDO 68

Matteo Correnti, Francesca Annibali, Michele Bellazzini +10

We present the results of deep Hubble Space Telescope photometry of the dwarf galaxy DDO 68-C, proposed as possibly associated with the isolated peculiar dwarf DDO 68. The new data…

Old massive clusters (and a nuclear star cluster?) in the tidal tails of NGC5238

M. Bellazzini, F. Annibali, M. Correnti +12

New, deep HST photometry allowed us to identify and study eight compact and bright (M_V< -5.8) star clusters in the outskirts of the star-forming isolated dwarf galaxy NGC5238 (M_*…
