Star-Formation Histories, Abundances, and Kinematics of Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Group
- E. Tolstoy, V. Hill, M. Tosi
- Physics
- 29 April 2009
Within the Local Universe galaxies can be studied in great detail star by star, and here we review the results of quantitative studies in nearby dwarf galaxies. The color-magnitude diagram synthesis…
Metal Abundances of Red Clump Stars in Open Clusters. I. NGC 6819
- A. Bragaglia, E. Carretta, S. Scuderi
- Physics
- 20 September 2000
We present an analysis of high-dispersion spectra (R ~ 40,000) of three red clump stars in the old open cluster NGC 6819. The spectra were obtained with SARG, the high-dispersion spectrograph of the…
Age determination of six intermediate-age small magellanic cloud star clusters with HST/ACS
We present a photometric analysis of the star clusters Lindsay 1, Kron 3, NGC 339, NGC 416, Lindsay 38, and NGC 419 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), observed with the Hubble Space Telescope…
Quantifying the uncertainties of chemical evolution studies II. Stellar yields
- D. Romano, A. Karakas, M. Tosi, F. Matteucci
- Physics
- 30 June 2010
Context. Galactic chemical evolution models are useful tools for interpreting the large body of high-quality observational data on the chemical composition of stars and gas in galaxies that have…
I Zw 18 Revisited with HST ACS and Cepheids: New Distance and Age
- A. Aloisi, G. Clementini, R. Marel
- Physics
- 16 July 2007
We present new V- and I-band HST ACS photometry of I Zw 18, the most metal-poor blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy in the nearby universe. It has been argued in the past that I Zw 18 is a very young…
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey
- G. Gilmore, S. Randich, T. Zwitter
- Physics
- 1 March 2012
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey has begun and will obtain high quality spectroscopy of some 100000 Milky Way stars, in the field and in open clusters, down to magnitude 19, systematically ...
THE STAR FORMATION HISTORY OF I Zw 18
- A. Aloisi, M. Tosi, L. G. D. D. A. D. Bologna, Oss. Astronomico di Bologna, U. Muenchen
- Physics, Geology
- 16 April 1999
The star formation history in I Zw 18 has been inferred from Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 archival data. This is done by comparing the derived V, B-V and V, V-I…
The Resolved Stellar Population of the Poststarburst Galaxy NGC 1569
- L. Greggio, M. Tosi, M. Sirianni
- Physics
- 30 March 1998
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) photometry of the resolved stellar population in the poststarburst galaxy NGC 1569. The color-magnitude diagram (CMD)…
Starbursts in the Local Universe: New Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys Observations of the Irregular Galaxy NGC 4449
- F. Annibali, A. Aloisi, M. Sirianni
- Physics
- 11 April 2008
We present photometry with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on the Hubble Space Telescope of stars in the Magellanic starburst galaxy NGC 4449. The galaxy has been imaged in the F435W (B), F555W…
Past and Present Star Formation in the SMC: NGC 346 and its Neighborhood*
- E. Sabbi, M. Sirianni, L. Angeretti
- Physics
- 2007
In the quest to understand how star formation occurs and propagates in the low-metallicity environment of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), we acquired deep F555W (~V) and F814W (~I) Hubble Space…
