Globular Cluster Systems in Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II: NGC 6166

William E. Harris, John P. Blakeslee, Bradley C. Whitmore +3

We present new deep photometry of the globular cluster system (GCS) around NGC 6166, the central supergiant galaxy in Abell 2199. HST data from the ACS and WFC3 cameras in F475W, F…

Star Cluster Properties in Two LEGUS Galaxies Computed with Stochastic Stellar Population Synthesis Models

Mark R. Krumholz, Angela Adamo, Michele Fumagalli +14

We investigate a novel Bayesian analysis method, based on the Stochastically Lighting Up Galaxies (slug) code, to derive the masses, ages, and extinctions of star clusters from int…

The Brightest Young Star Clusters in NGC 5253

D. Calzetti, K. E. Johnson, A. Adamo +43

The nearby dwarf starburst galaxy NGC5253 hosts a number of young, massive star clusters, the two youngest of which are centrally concentrated and surrounded by thermal radio emiss…

The Link Between the Formation Rates of Clusters and Stars in Galaxies

Rupali Chandar, S. Michael Fall, Bradley C. Whitmore

The goal of this paper is to test whether the formation rate of star clusters is proportional to the star formation rate (SFR) in galaxies. As a first step, we present the mass fun…

Hierarchical Star Formation across the ring galaxy NGC 6503

Dimitrios A. Gouliermis, David Thilker, Bruce G. Elmegreen +25

We present a detailed clustering analysis of the young stellar population across the star-forming ring galaxy NGC 6503, based on the deep HST photometry obtained with the Legacy Ex…

Two Populations of Old Star Clusters in the Spiral Galaxy M101 Based on HST/ACS Observations

Lesley A. Simanton, Rupali Chandar, Bradley C. Whitmore

We present a new photometric catalog of 326 candidate globular clusters (GCs) in the nearby spiral galaxy M101, selected from B, V, and I Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for…
