The Spatial Relation between Young Star Clusters and Molecular Clouds in M 51 with LEGUS
K. Grasha, D. Calzetti, A. Adamo +21
We present a study correlating the spatial locations of young star clusters with those of molecular clouds in NGC~5194, in order to investigate the timescale over which clusters se…
A comparison of young star properties with local galactic environment for LEGUS/LITTLE THINGS dwarf irregular galaxies
Deidre A. Hunter, Angela Adamo, Bruce G. Elmegreen +25
We have explored the role environmental factors play in determining characteristics of young stellar objects in nearby dwarf irregular and Blue Compact Dwarf galaxies. Star cluster…
The Fraction of Stars That Form in Clusters in Different Galaxies
Rupali Chandar, S. Michael Fall, Bradley C. Whitmore +1
We estimate the fraction of stars that form in compact clusters (bound and unbound), Gamma_F, in a diverse sample of eight star-forming galaxies, including two irregulars, two dwar…
Resolved Star Formation Efficiency in the Antennae Galaxies
Allison M. Matthews, Kelsey E. Johnson, Bradley C. Whitmore +3
We use Atacama Large Millimeter Array CO(3-2) observations in conjunction with optical observations from the Hubble Space Telescope to determine the ratio of stellar to gas mass fo…
The young star cluster population of M51 with LEGUS - II. Testing environmental dependencies
M. Messa, A. Adamo, D. Calzetti +16
It has recently been established that the properties of young star clusters (YSCs) can vary as a function of the galactic environment in which they are found. We use the cluster ca…
Star Formation Histories of the LEGUS dwarf galaxies. II. Spatially resolved star formation history of the Magellanic irregular NGC 4449
Elena Sacchi, Michele Cignoni, Alessandra Aloisi +16
We present a detailed study of the Magellanic irregular galaxy NGC 4449 based on both archival and new photometric data from the Legacy Extragalactic UV Survey, obtained with the H…
