Description


We compare star formation in the inner and outer disks of 11 dwarf irregular galaxies (dIm) within 3.6Mpc. The regions are identified on Galaxy Evolution Explorer near-UV images, and modeled with UV, optical, and near-IR colors to determine masses and ages. A few galaxies have made 10^5^-10^6^M_{sun}_ complexes in a starburst phase, while others have not formed clusters in the last 50Myr. The maximum region mass correlates with the number of regions as expected from the size-of-sample effect. We find no radial gradients in region masses and ages, even beyond the realm of H{alpha} emission, although there is an exponential decrease in the luminosity density and number density of the regions with radius. H{alpha} is apparently lacking in the outer parts only because nebular emission around massive stars is too faint to see. The outermost regions for the five galaxies with HI data formed at average gas surface densities of 1.9-5.9M_{sun}/pc^2^.
