A variation of the fraction of stars that form in bound clusters within M83

Esteban Silva-Villa, Angela Adamo, Nate Bastian

Recent observations, as well as theoretical studies, have suggested that stellar cluster formation may depend on local and global environmental properties. In particular, the fract…

The Snapshot Hubble U-Band Cluster Survey (SHUCS). I. Survey Description and First Application to the Mixed Star Cluster Population of NGC 4041

I. S. Konstantopoulos, L. J. Smith, A. Adamo +9

We present the Snapshot Hubble U-band Cluster Survey (SHUCS), a project aimed at characterizing the star cluster populations of ten nearby galaxies (d<23 Mpc, half within 12 Mpc) t…

Constraints on possible age spreads within young massive clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Nate Bastian, Esteban Silva-Villa

Recent studies have shown that the observed main-sequence turn-off (MSTO) in colour-magnitude diagrams of intermediate age (1-2 Gyr) clusters in the LMC are broader than would be n…

Revealing a Ring-like Cluster Complex in a Tidal Tail of the Starburst Galaxy NGC 2146

A. Adamo, L. J. Smith, J. S. Gallagher +9

We report the discovery of a ring-like cluster complex in the starburst galaxy NGC 2146. The Ruby Ring, so named due to its appearance, shows a clear ring-like distribution of star…

Evidence of an interaction from resolved stellar populations: The curious case of NGC1313

Esteban Silva-Villa, Soeren Larsen

The galaxy NGC1313 has attracted the attention of various studies due to the peculiar morphology observed in optical bands, although it is classified as a barred, late-type galaxy…

The relation between surface star formation rate density and spiral arms in NGC 5236 (M83)

Esteban Silva-Villa, Soeren Larsen

For a long time the consensus has been that star formation rates are higher in the interior of spiral arms in galaxies, compared to inter-arm regions. However, recent studies have…
