ACS imaging of star clusters in M51. I. Identification and radius distribution
R. A. Scheepmaker, M. R. Haas, M. Gieles +3
We use HST/ACS observations of the spiral galaxy M51 in F435W, F555W and F814W to select a large sample of star clusters with accurate effective radius measurements in an area cove…
