The ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury
- J. Dalcanton, B. Williams, +24 authors T. Quinn
- Geography, Physics
- 1 December 2007
The ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury (ANGST) is a systematic survey to establish a legacy of uniform multi-color photometry of resolved stars for a volume-limited sample of nearby galaxies (D 14… Expand
The ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury. IX. Constraining Asymptotic Giant Branch Evolution with Old Metal-poor Galaxies
- L. Girardi, B. Williams, +10 authors E. Skillman
- Physics
- 23 September 2010
In an attempt to constrain evolutionary models of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase at the limit of low masses and low metallicities, we have examined the luminosity functions and number ratios… Expand
Stellar SEDs from 0.3 to 2.5 μm: Tracing the Stellar Locus and Searching for Color Outliers in the SDSS and 2MASS
- K. Covey, Z. Ivezic, +21 authors Penn State
- Physics
- 31 July 2007
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) are rich resources for studying stellar astrophysics and the structure and formation history of the Galaxy. As new surveys… Expand
The GHOSTS Survey. I. Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys Data
- D. Radburn-Smith, R. Jong, +15 authors D. Zucker
- Physics
- 3 August 2011
We present an overview of the GHOSTS survey, the largest study to date of the resolved stellar populations in the outskirts of disk galaxies. The sample consists of 14 disk galaxies within 17 Mpc,… Expand
Revised bolometric corrections and interstellar extinction coefficients for the ACS and WFPC2 photometric systems
- L. Girardi, J. Dalcanton, +9 authors for the Angstangrrr Collaboration
- Physics
- 3 April 2008
We present extensive tables of bolometric corrections and interstellar extinction coefficients for the WFPC2 and ACS (both WFC and HRC) photometric systems. They are derived from synthetic photometry… Expand
STAR CLUSTERS IN M31. V. INTERNAL DYNAMICAL TRENDS: SOME TROUBLESOME, SOME REASSURING
- J. Strader, N. Caldwell, A. Seth
- Physics
- 24 April 2011
We present internal velocity dispersions and precise radial velocities for 200 globular clusters (GCs) in M31 that are derived using new high-resolution spectra from MMT/Hectochelle. Of these, 163… Expand
THE ACS NEARBY GALAXY SURVEY TREASURY. VIII. THE GLOBAL STAR FORMATION HISTORIES OF 60 DWARF GALAXIES IN THE LOCAL VOLUME
- D. Weisz, J. Dalcanton, +21 authors Hubble Fellow
- Physics
- 5 January 2011
We present uniformly measured star formation histories (SFHs) of 60 nearby (D less than or similar to 4 Mpc) dwarf galaxies based on color-magnitude diagrams of resolved stellar populations from… Expand
THE PANCHROMATIC HUBBLE ANDROMEDA TREASURY
- J. Dalcanton, B. Williams, +30 authors K. Stanek
- Physics
- 30 March 2012
The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury is an ongoing Hubble Space Telescope Multi-Cycle Treasury program to image ~1/3 of M31's star-forming disk in six filters, spanning from the ultraviolet… Expand
The High-mass Stellar Initial Mass Function in M31 Clusters
- D. Weisz, L. Johnson, +16 authors E. Skillman
- Physics
- 23 February 2015
We have undertaken the largest systematic study of the high-mass stellar initial mass function (IMF) to date using the optical color?magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of 85 resolved, young (), intermediate… Expand
A supermassive black hole in an ultra-compact dwarf galaxy
- A. Seth, R. V. D. Bosch, +11 authors J. Walsh
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 16 September 2014
Ultra-compact dwarf galaxies are among the densest stellar systems in the Universe. These systems have masses of up to 2 × 108 solar masses, but half-light radii of just 3–50 parsecs. Dynamical mass… Expand
