Cluster formation versus star formation rates around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud
The stellar population and star clusters around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are studied to understand the correlation between star formation and cluster formation rates. We used the stellar data base of the OGLE II LMC survey and the star cluster catalogues. The observed distributions of stellar density in the colour−magnitude diagrams (CMDs) were compared with synthetic one...
متن کاملCluster formation versus star formation around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud
We studied the stellar population and star clusters around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in order to understand the correlation between star formation and cluster formation episodes. We used the stellar data base of the OGLE II LMC survey and the star cluster catalogues. The analysis of the colourmagnitude diagrams (CMDs) were used to estimate the ages of the stellar populatio...
متن کاملThe intermediate - age globular cluster NGC 1783 in the Large Magellanic Cloud
We present Hubble Space Telescope ACS deep photometry of the intermediate-age globular cluster NGC 1783 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. By using this photometric dataset, we have determined the degree of ellipticity of the cluster (ǫ=0.14±0.03) and the radial density profile. This profile is well reproduced by a standard King model with an extended core (rc=24.5”) and a low concentration (c=1.16...
متن کاملThe Star Formation History of the Large Magellanic Cloud
We present the first-ever global, spatially-resolved reconstruction of the star formation history (SFH) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), based on the application of our StarFISH analysis software to the multiband photometry of twenty million of its stars from the Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey. The general outlines of our results are consistent with previously published results: follo...
متن کاملThe Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC 2214
Johnson BV CCD observations have been made of the young Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC 2214 and a nearby field using the Anglo-Australian Telescope. It has been suggested in the literature that this elliptical cluster is actually two clusters in the process of merging. No evidence is found from profile fitting or the colour–magnitude diagrams to support this contention. Completeness factors...
