Shocks and Star Formation in Stephan's Quintet. I. Gemini Spectroscopy of Hα-bright knots
I. S. Konstantopoulos, P. N. Appleton, P. Guillard +8
We present a Gemini-GMOS spectroscopic study of HST-selected Hα-emitting regions in Stephan's Quintet (HCG 92), a nearby compact galaxy group, with the aim of disentangling the pro…
The Origin and Universality of the Stellar Initial Mass Function
Stella S. R. Offner, Paul C. Clark, Patrick Hennebelle +5
We review current theories for the origin of the Stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) with particular focus on the extent to which the IMF can be considered universal across various…
Constraining Globular Cluster Formation Through Studies of Young Massive Clusters: I. A lack of ongoing star formation within young clusters
N. Bastian, I. Cabrera-Ziri, B. Davies +1
We present a survey of 130 Galactic and extragalactic young massive clusters (YMCs, $10^4 < M/\msun < 10^8$, ) with integrated spectroscopy or resolved ste…
Early Disc Accretion as the Origin of Abundance Anomalies in Globular Clusters
N. Bastian, H. J. G. L. M. Lamers, S. E. de Mink +3
Globular clusters (GCs), once thought to be well approximated as simple stellar populations (i.e. all stars having the same age and chemical abundance), are now known to host a var…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey - XI. A census of the hot luminous stars and their feedback in 30 Doradus
E. I. Doran, P. A. Crowther, A. de Koter +16
We compile the first comprehensive census of hot luminous stars in the 30 Doradus (30 Dor) star forming region of the LMC. The census extends to a radius of 10arcmin (150pc) from t…
A variation of the fraction of stars that form in bound clusters within M83
Esteban Silva-Villa, Angela Adamo, Nate Bastian
Recent observations, as well as theoretical studies, have suggested that stellar cluster formation may depend on local and global environmental properties. In particular, the fract…
