Description

We present a study of the variation of spatial structure of stellar populations within dwarf galaxies as a function of the population age. We use deep Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging of nearby dwarf galaxies in order to resolve individual stars and create composite colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) for each galaxy. Using the obtained CMDs, we select blue helium burning stars, which can be unambiguously age-dated by comparing the absolute magnitude of individual stars with stellar isochrones. Additionally, we select a very young (~<10Myr) population of OB stars for a subset of the galaxies based on the tip of the young main sequence. By selecting stars in different age ranges, we can then study how the spatial distribution of these stars evolves with time.
