Variation of the cluster luminosity function across the disk of M51
M. R. Haas, M. Gieles, R. A. Scheepmaker +3
We study the luminosity function (LF) of the star clusters in M51. Comparing the observed LF with the LF resulting from artificial cluster populations suggests that there exists an…
Planetary Nebula Candidates in Extragalactic Young Star Clusters
S. S. Larsen, T. Richtler
During an analysis of optical spectra of 80 young star clusters in several nearby spiral galaxies, [O III] and [N II] emission lines were noted in some cases. Three of these emissi…
Young Massive Clusters - Formation Efficiencies and (Initial) Mass Functions
Soeren S. Larsen
Globular clusters are often assumed to be good tracers of major star formation episodes in their host galaxies. While observations over the past 2 decades have confirmed the presen…
The luminosity function of young star clusters: implications for the maximum mass and luminosity of clusters
Mark Gieles, Soeren Larsen, Nate Bastian +1
We introduce a method to relate a possible truncation of the star cluster mass function at the high mass end to the shape of the cluster luminosity function (LF). We compare the ob…
