Title:
HST photometry of NGC 5866 globulars
Short Name:

Publisher:

Description:
We perform a detailed study of the globular cluster (GC) system in the galaxy NGC 5866 based on F435W, F555W, and F625W (~B, V, and R) Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys images. Adopting color, size, and shape selection criteria, the final list of GC candidates comprises 109 objects, with small estimated contamination from background galaxies, and foreground stars.

Title:
HST photometry of Sculptor group dwarf galaxies

Description:
We focus on the resolved stellar populations of one early-type and four transition-type dwarf galaxies in the Sculptor group, with the aim to examine the potential presence of population gradients and place constraints on their mean metallicities. We use deep Hubble Space Telescope images to construct color-magnitude diagrams, from which we select stellar populations that trace different evolutionary phases in order to constrain their range of ages and metallicities, as well as to examine their spatial distribution. In addition, we use the resolved stars in the red giant branch in order to derive photometric metallicities.
2763. HST photometry of star clusters in M82

Title:
HST photometry of star clusters in M82
Short Name:
J/ApJ/766/20
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a photometric study of star clusters in the nearby starburst galaxy M82 based on the UBVI-, YJ- and H-band Hubble Space Telescope images. We find 1105 star clusters with V<23mag. Of those, 1070 are located in the disk region, while 35 star clusters are in the halo region. The star clusters in the disk are composed of a dominant blue population with a color peak at (B-V)_0_~0.45, and a weaker red population. The luminosity function of the disk clusters shows a power-law distribution with a power-law index {alpha}=-2.04+/-0.03, and the scale height of their distribution is h_z_=9.64"+/-0.40" (164+/-7pc), similar to that of the stellar thin disk of M82. We have derived the ages of ~630 star clusters using the spectral energy distribution fit method by comparing UBVI(YJ)H-band photometric data with the simple stellar population models. The age distribution of the disk clusters shows that the most dominant cluster population has ages ranging from 100Myr to 1Gyr, with a peak at about 500Myr. This suggests that M82 has undergone a disk-wide star formation about 500Myr ago, probably through the interaction with M81. The brightest star clusters in the nuclear region are much brighter than those in other regions, indicating that more massive star clusters are formed in the denser environments. On the other hand, the colors of the halo clusters are similar to those of globular clusters in the Milky Way, and their ages are estimated to be older than 1Gyr. These are probably genuine old globular clusters in M82.

Description:
We present a photometric catalog of 45 massive star clusters in the nuclear starburst of M83 (NGC 5236), observed with the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2, in both broadband (F300W, F547M, and F814W) and narrowband (F656N and F487N) filters, in two separate visits one week apart during April and May 2000 .
2765. HST photometry of stars in HD 97950
ID:

Title:
HST photometry of stars in HD 97950
Short Name:
J/AJ/151/23
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We use photometry in the F220W, F250W, F330W, F435W filters from the High Resolution Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys and photometry in the F555W, F675W, and F814W filters from the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 aboard the Hubble Space Telescope to derive individual stellar reddenings and extinctions for stars in the HD97950 cluster in the giant HII region NGC 3603. The mean line of sight reddening for about a hundred main-sequence member stars inside the cluster is E(F435W-F555W)=1.33+/-0.12mag. After correcting for foreground reddening, the total to selective extinction ratio is R_F555W_=3.75+/-0.87 in the cluster. Within the standard deviation associated with E({lambda}-F555W)/E(F435W-F555W) in each filter, the cluster extinction curve at ultraviolet wavelengths tends to be grayer than the average Galactic extinction laws from Cardelli et al. and Fitzpatrick. It is closer to the extinction law derived by Calzetti et al. for starburst galaxies, where the 0.2175{mu}m bump is absent. This indicates an anomalous extinction in the HD97950 cluster, which may due to the clumpy dust distribution within the cluster, and the size of dust grains being larger than the average Galactic ISM.
2766. HST photometry of stars in N160A
ID:

Title:
HST photometry of stars in N160A
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Using high-resolution imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope, we study the Large Magellanic Cloud 2 region N160A and uncover several striking features of this complex massive star-forming site. The two compact high excitation 2 blobs (HEBs) A1 and A2 are for the first time resolved and their stellar content and morphology is revealed. A1, being of higher excitation, is powered by a single massive star whose strong wind has created a surrounding bubble. A2 harbors several exciting stars enshrouded by large quantities of dust. The whole N160A nebula is energized by three star clusters for which we obtain photometry and study their color-magnitude diagram. The 2 region is particularly dusty, with extinction values reaching an A_V_~2.5mag in the visible, and it is separated from the molecular cloud by an outstanding ionization front. A previously detected infrared young stellar object is also accurately located with respect to the 2 region (N160A).
2767. HST photometry of stars in NGC 2419

Title:
HST photometry of stars in NGC 2419
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present an analysis of optical and ultraviolet Hubble Space Telescope photometry for evolved stars in the core of the distant massive globular cluster NGC 2419. We characterize the horizontal branch (HB) population in detail including corrections for incompleteness on the long blue tail. The majority of the HB stars can be identified with two main groups (one slightly bluer than the instability strip, and the other at the extreme end of the HB). We present a method for removing (to first-order) lifetime effects from the distribution of HB stars to facilitate more accurate measurements of helium abundance for clusters with blue HBs and to clarify the distribution of stars reaching the zero-age HB.

HST photometry of two NGC 4214 clusters

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the data and methods that we have used to perform a detailed UV-optical study of the nearby dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 4214 using multifilter Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 and STIS photometry. We explain the process followed to obtain high-quality photometry and astrometry of the stellar and cluster populations of this galaxy. We describe the procedure used to transform magnitudes and colors into physical parameters using spectral energy distributions. The data show the existence of both young and old stellar populations that can be resolved at the distance of NGC 4214 (2.94Mpc), and we perform a general description of those populations.

Title:
HST photometry of 4 Virgo LSB galaxies
Short Name:

Date:

Publisher:

Description:
Utilizing the F814W and F300W filters, Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera-2 (WFPC2) images were taken of four low surface brightness galaxies in the direction of the Virgo Cluster - V7L3, V2L8, V1L4, and Malin 1. The high resolution of the WFPC2 combined with the extremely diffuse nature of the four galaxies makes them essentially transparent, allowing for the serendipitous discovery of 139 background galaxies visible through both the disks and nuclei of the foreground galaxies. Surface photometry was done on the newly discovered galaxies through the F814W (I-band) filter. The detected galaxies have both r1/4 and exponential-type profiles with radii (to the {mu}_F814W_=25.0mag/arcsec^2^ limit) less than 5.0". Their total magnitudes range from 18.9 through the survey cutoff at 25.0 in the F814W filter.
