Super Star Clusters in SBS0335-052E (2008)
Thompson, Rodger I., Sauvage, Marc, Kennicutt, Robert C., Engelbracht, Charles, Vanzi, Leonardo, Schneider, Glenn
As one of the lowest metallicity star forming galaxies, with a nucleus of several super star clusters, SBS0335-052E is the subject of substantial current study. We present new insights on this galaxy...
The IMF and Star Formation History of the Stellar Clusters in the Vela D Cloud (2005)
Massi, Fabrizio, Testi, Leonardo, Vanzi, Leonardo
We present the results of a Near-Infrared deep photometric survey of a sample of six embedded star clusters in the Vela-D molecular cloud, all associated with luminous (~10^3 Lsun) IRAS sources. The...
Delayed Photoionization Feedback in a Super Star Cluster in SBS0335-052E (2005)
Thompson, Rodger I., Sauvage, Marc, Kennicutt, Robert C., Engelbracht, Charles, Vanzi, Leonardo
SBS0335-052 is a well studied Blue Compact Dwarf galaxy with one of the lowest metallicities of any known galaxy. It also contains 6 previously identified Super Star Clusters. We combine archival HST...
WFILAS: Wide Field Imager Lyman Alpha Search (2005)
Westra, Eduard, Jones, D. Heath, Lidman, Chris, Athreya, Ramana, Meisenheimer, Klaus, Wolf, Christian, ...
The Wide Field Imager Lyman-Alpha Search (WFILAS) is a search for Lya emitting galaxies at z~5.7. Deep images from the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on the ESO/MPI 2.2m telescope have been used to detect 7...
A fresh view on Henize 2-10 with VLT/NAOS-CONICA (2005)
Cabanac, Remi A., Vanzi, Leonardo, Sauvage, Marc
We present high-resolution observations of Henize 2-10 in Ks (2.2um), L' (3.8um), M' (4.8um) bands. These allow for the first time to track accurately the structures at the heart of the galaxy from...
Westra, Eduard, Jones, D. Heath, Lidman, Chris E., Athreya, Ramana M., Meisenheimer, Klaus, Wolf, Christian, ...
We report the spectroscopic confirmation of a compact \lya emitting galaxy at $z=5.721$. A FORS2 spectrum of the source shows a strong asymmetric line with a flux of 5$\times10^{-17}$ erg s$^{-1}$...
Dust and Super Star Clusters in NGC 5253 (2003)
Vanzi, Leonardo, Sauvage, Marc
We present new observations of the famous starburst galaxy NGC 5253 which owes its celebrity to possibly being the youngest and closest starburst galaxy known. Our observations in the infrared and...
Super Star Clusters in the Blue Dwarf Galaxy UM 462 (2003)
I present optical observations of the Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy UM 462. The images of this galaxy show several bright compact sources. A careful study of these sources has revealed their nature of...
Deep Near Infrared Photometry of New Galactic Globular Clusters (2000)
Ivanov, Valentin D., Borissova, Jordanka, Vanzi, Leonardo
We present a preliminary report on the first deep infrared photometry of 2MASS GC01 and 2MASS GC02 (GC01 and GC02 hereafter) - new Galactic globular cluster (GC) candidates, discovered by the 2MASS....
