TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used far ultraviolet to far infrared images of the nearby galaxy NGC5194, from Spitzer, GALEX, Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based data, to investigate local and global star formation, and the impact of dust extinction in HII-emitting knots.

High-Mass, OB Star Formation in M51: Hubble Space Telescope Hα and Paα Imaging
Nick Scoville,M. Polletta,Shawn P. Ewald,Susan R. Stolovy,Rodger I. Thompson,Marcia J. Rieke +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the H? and Pa? emission-line images from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to study the high-mass stellar population in the central 3'4' of M51.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Mass, OB Star Formation in M51 : HST Halpha and Palpha Imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained Halpha and Palpha emission line images covering the central 3 - 4 arcmin of M51 using the WFPC2 and NICMOS cameras on HST to study the high-mass stellar population.
