Star Formation Histories of the LEGUS Spiral Galaxies. I. The flocculent spiral NGC 7793

Elena Sacchi, Michele Cignoni, Alessandra Aloisi +13

We present a detailed study of the flocculent spiral galaxy NGC 7793, part of the Sculptor group. By analyzing the resolved stellar populations of the galaxy, located at a distance…

Spatially Resolved Dust, Gas, and Star Formation in the Dwarf Magellanic Irregular NGC4449

D. Calzetti, G. W. Wilson, B. T. Draine +17

We investigate the relation between gas and star formation in sub-galactic regions, ~360 pc to ~1.5 kpc in size, within the nearby starburst dwarf NGC4449, in order to separate the…

The Young Star Cluster population of M51 with LEGUS: I. A comprehensive study of cluster formation and evolution

M. Messa, A. Adamo, G. Östlin +34

Recently acquired WFC3 UV (F275W and F336W) imaging mosaics under the Legacy Extragalactic UV Survey (LEGUS) combined with archival ACS data of M51 are used to study the young star…

Hierarchical Star Formation in Turbulent Media: Evidence from Young Star Clusters

K. Grasha, B. G. Elmegreen, D. Calzetti +16

We present an analysis of the positions and ages of young star clusters in eight local galaxies to investigate the connection between the age difference and separation of cluster p…

Exploring the IMF of star clusters: a joint SLUG and LEGUS effort

G. Ashworth, M. Fumagalli, M. R. Krumholz +14

We present the implementation of a Bayesian formalism within the Stochastically Lighting Up Galaxies (SLUG) stellar population synthesis code, which is designed to investigate vari…

Effective Radii of Young, Massive Star Clusters in Two LEGUS Galaxies

J. E. Ryon, J. S. Gallagher, L. J. Smith +15

We present a study of the effective (half-light) radii and other structural properties of a systematically selected sample of young, massive star clusters (YMCs, $5\times10^3…
