Images of five fields in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 obtained with the {\it Hubble Space Telescope} in the F555W and F814W filters are presented. Photometry for the stars in these images was extracted using the…
We present a study of star forming regions and its demographics in the nearby dwarf irregular galaxy WLM using the Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) multi band observations in three filters F148W, N245M and N263M. We find that the UV…
We present the results of our study of starforming regions in the lenticular galaxy NGC 4324. During a complex analysis of multiwavelength observational data -- the narrow-band emission-line images obtained with the 2.5-m telescope at the…
The intermediate age star cluster W3 (age ~ 300-500 Myr) in NGC 7252 is the most luminous star cluster known to date with a dynamical mass estimate of 8 +/- 2 x 10^7 M_sun. With an effective radius of about 17.5 pc and a velocity dispersion…
We discuss three aspects of post-AGB (PAGB) stars in old populations. (1) HST photometry of the nucleus of the planetary nebula (PN) K 648 in the globular cluster (GC) M15 implies a mass of 0.60 Msun, in contrast to the mean masses of white…
We present illustrative models for the UV to millimeter emission of starburst galaxies which are treated as an ensemble of optically thick giant molecular clouds (GMCs) centrally illuminated by recently formed stars. The models follow the…
We present UBVRI and CT1T2 photometry for fifteen catalogued open clusters of relative high brightness and compact appearance. From these unprecedented photometric data sets, covering wavelengths from the blue up to the near-infrared, we…
We have obtained a Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet image and spectrum of the nearby Wolf-Rayet galaxy NGC 1741. The spatial morphology from the Faint Object Camera image is dominated by two main starburst centers, each being about 100…
We present a star cluster population study in the interacting galaxy system M51 based on HST ACS BVI mosaic images taken by the Hubble Heritage Team to commemorate the HST's 15th anniversary. We have found and classified star clusters in…
The stellar content of the nearby SB(s)m galaxy NGC 55 is investigated using images covering the visible and near-infrared wavelength regions. A well-defined plume, which stellar evolution models suggest contains stars with masses near the…
NGC7252, which is one of the nearest major-merger galaxy remnants, is an ideal laboratory to study the processes inherent to the transformation of disc galaxies to ellipticals as observed about ~1Gyr after the collision. We obtained…
We present HST photometry of the resolved stellar population in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 1705. The galaxy has been observed with both WFPC2 and NICMOS, and successful images have been obtained in the F555W, F814W, F110W and F160W…
We present HST optical images and UV spectra, as well as ground-based near-infrared images of the high surface brightness giant HII region NGC 2363 (NGC 2366-I) and its surroundings. The massive star content of the southern end of the dwarf…
We present spatially resolved imaging and integral field spectroscopy data for 450 cool giant stars within 1\,pc from Sgr\,A*. We use the prominent CO bandheads to derive effective temperatures of individual giants. Additionally we present…
High resolution spectra of stars in the ~200 Myr LMC globular cluster, NGC 1866, reveal rapidly rotating stars with variable H-alpha emission and absorption, and signatures of outflowing material. The variable H-alpha line can substanti…
We present far-ultraviolet (far-UV) images of the rich galaxy cluster ZwCl1358.1+6245, taken with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). When combined with archival HST observations, our data…
We report confirmation of a large, evolved, bipolar planetary nebula and its blue, white dwarf central star as a member of the ~500 Myr old Galactic open star cluster M37 (NGC 2099). This is only the third known example of a planetary…
The HST ACS Coma Cluster Treasury Survey is a deep two passband imaging survey of the nearest very rich cluster of galaxies, covering a range of galaxy density environments. The imaging is complemented by a recent wide field redshift survey…
