UIT Astro-2 Observations of NGC 4449

Robert S. Hill, Michael N. Fanelli, Denise A. Smith +2

The bright Magellanic irregular galaxy NGC 4449 was observed by the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) during the Astro-2 Spacelab mission in March, 1995. Far ultraviolet (FUV) im…

Ultraviolet Signatures of Tidal Interaction in the Giant Spiral Galaxy, M101

William H. Waller, Ralph C. Bohlin, Robert H. Cornett +10

We present new evidence for tidal interactions having occurred in the disk of M101 in the last 10^8 - 10^9 years. Recent imaging of the far-ultraviolet emission from M101 by the Sh…

Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) Observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud

Robert H. Cornett, Michael R. Greason, Jesse K. Hill +9

A mosaic of four UIT far-UV (FUV; 1620A) images, which covers most of the SMC bar, is presented, with derived stellar and HII region photometry. The UV morphology of the Bar shows…

Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope Observations of OB Stars in the N 11 Region of the LMC

J. Wm. Parker, J. K. Hill, R. C. Bohlin +5

We present an analysis of far-ultraviolet (FUV: 130-180 nm) and optical (U, B, and V) data of the stellar and nebular content of the OB associations LH 9, 10, and 13 in the Large M…
