Evidence for environmentally dependent cluster disruption in M83. (2011)

Keywords : galaxies individual: M83 - galaxies: star clusters: general

Abstract:We study the stellar cluster population in two adjacent fields in the nearby, face-on spiral galaxy, M83, using multi-wavelength WFC3/HST imaging. After automatic detection procedures, the clusters are selected through visual inspection to be centrally concentrated, symmetric, and resolved on the images, which allows us to differentiate between clusters and likely unbound associations. We compare our sample with previous studies and show that the differences between the catalogues are largely due to the inclusion of large numbers of diffuse associations within previous catalogues as well as the inclusion of the central starburst region, where the completeness limit is significantly worse than in the surrounding regions.

Photometric and derived properties of stellar clusters in M83 derived from two pointings with HST/WFC3. For each cluster, its position, age, mass, extinction, size, and photometry is given. All objects that passed our visual selection criteria are included. However, in the published work, only a subsample of this catalogue was used. For details, see Bastian et al. (2011MNRAS.417L...6B) and Bastian et al. (2011, in press, arXiv:1109.6015)
