GALEX Ultraviolet Photometry of Globular Clusters in M31: Three Year Results and a Catalog
Soo-Chang Rey, R. Michael Rich, Sangmo T. Sohn +23
We present ultraviolet (UV) photometry of M31 globular clusters (GCs) found in 23 Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) images covering the entirety of M31. We detect 485 and 273 GCs (…
Statistical Properties of the GALEX/SDSS matched source catalogs, and classification of the UV sources
Luciana Bianchi, Lino Rodriguez-Merino, Maurice Viton +30
We use the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Medium and All-Sky-Imaging Survey (MIS & AIS) data from the first public data release (GR1), matched to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (S…
First stars as a possible origin for the helium-rich population in omega Centauri
Ena Choi, Sukyoung K. Yi
The most massive Galactic globular cluster omega Cen appears to have two, or perhaps more, distinct main sequences. Its bluest main sequence is at the centre of debate because it h…
The Local Universe as Seen in Far-Infrared and in Far-Ultraviolet: A Global Point of View on the Local Recent Star Formation
V. Buat, T. T. Takeuchi, J. Iglesias-Paramo +23
We select far-infrared (FIR-60 microns) and far-ultraviolet (FUV-1530 A) samples of nearby galaxies in order to discuss the biases encountered by monochromatic surveys (FIR or FUV)…
Ongoing Formation of Bulges and Black Holes in the Local Universe: New Insights from GALEX
Guinevere Kauffmann, Timothy M. Heckman, Tamas Budavari +21
We analyze a volume-limited sample of massive bulge-dominated galaxies with data from both the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite. The gal…
Radial variation of attenuation and star formation in the largest late-type disks observed with GALEX
Samuel Boissier, Armando Gil de Paz, Alessandro Boselli +24
For a sample of 43 nearby, late-type galaxies, we have investigated the radial variation of both the current star formation rate and the dust-induced UV light attenuation. To do th…
