The Initial Mass Function in the Extended Ultraviolet Disk of M83
Sarah M. Bruzzese, David A. Thilker, Gerhardt Meurer +7
Using Hubble Space Telescope ACS/WFC data we present the photometry and spatial distribution of resolved stellar populations of four fields within the extended ultraviolet disk (XU…
Two major accretion epochs in M31 from two distinct populations of globular clusters
Dougal Mackey, Geraint F. Lewis, Brendon J. Brewer +12
Large galaxies grow through the accumulation of dwarf galaxies. In principle it is possible to trace this growth history using the properties of a galaxy's stellar halo. Previous i…
Stellar population and structural properties of dwarf galaxies and young stellar systems in the M81 group
Sakurako Okamoto, Nobuo Arimoto, Annette M. N. Ferguson +3
We use Hyper Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope to investigate the structural and photometric properties of early-type dwarf galaxies and young stellar systems at the center of th…
Comparing the Quenching Times of Faint M31 and Milky Way Satellite Galaxies
Daniel R. Weisz, Nicolas F. Martin, Andrew E. Dolphin +8
We present the star formation histories (SFHs) of 20 faint M31 satellites () that were measured by modeling sub-horizontal branch (HB) depth color-mag…
A rogues gallery of Andromeda's dwarf galaxies II. Precise Distances to 17 Faint Satellites
Daniel R. Weisz, Andrew E. Dolphin, Nicolas F. Martin +8
We present new horizontal branch (HB) distance measurements to 17 of the faintest known M31 satellites () based on deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST)…
First stellar spectroscopy in Leo P
C. J. Evans, N. Castro, O. A. Gonzalez +11
We present the first stellar spectroscopy in the low-luminosity (M_V ~-9.3 mag), dwarf galaxy Leo P. Its significantly low oxygen abundance (3% solar) and relative proximity (~1.6…
