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…
FEAST: JWST/NIRCam view of the Resolved Stellar Populations of the Interacting Dwarf Galaxies NGC~4485/NGC~4490
Giacomo Bortolini, Matteo Correnti, Angela Adamo +23
We present new JWST/NIRCam observations of the interacting dwarf galaxy system NGC 4485/NGC 4490 (a.k.a. Arp 269), obtained as part of the Cycle 1 Feedback in Emerging extrAgalacti…
The near infrared SED of young star clusters in the FEAST galaxies: Missing ingredients at 1-5 m
Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Arjan Bik +23
We present a combined HST and JWST 0.2 - to - 5 m analysis of the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of emerging young star clusters (eYSCs) in four nearby galaxies from the…
FEAST: probing the stellar population of the starburst dwarf galaxy NGC4449 with JWST/NIRCam
Matteo Correnti, Giacomo Bortolini, Flavia Dell'Agli +22
We present new JWST/NIRCam observations of the starburst irregular galaxy NGC 4449, obtained in Cycle 1 as part of the Feedback in Emerging extrAgalactic Star clusTers (FEAST) prog…
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…
Power Spectra of JWST Images of Local Galaxies: Searching for Disk Thickness
Bruce G. Elmegreen, Angela Adamo, Varun Bajaj +13
JWST/MIRI images have been used to study the Fourier transform power spectra (PS) of two spiral galaxies, NGC 628 and NGC 5236, and two dwarfs, NGC 4449 and NGC 5068, at distances…
