Journal ArticleDOI
The Nature and Origin of Substructure in the Outskirts of M31 -- II. Detailed Star Formation Histories
Edouard J. Bernard,Annette M. N. Ferguson,Jenny C. Richardson,Jenny C. Richardson,Mike Irwin,Michael K. Barker,Sebastian L. Hidalgo,Sebastian L. Hidalgo,Antonio Aparicio,Antonio Aparicio,Scott Chapman,Scott Chapman,Rodrigo A. Ibata,Geraint F. Lewis,Alan W. McConnachie,Nial R. Tanvir +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived further constraints in the form of quantitative star formation histories (SFHs) for 14 inner halo fields which sample diverse substructures, and found the resultant behaviours can be broadly separated into two categories.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Star Formation History and Dust Content in the Far Outer Disc of M31
Edouard J. Bernard,Annette M. N. Ferguson,Michael K. Barker,Sebastian L. Hidalgo,Sebastian L. Hidalgo,Rodrigo A. Ibata,Mike Irwin,Geraint F. Lewis,Alan W. McConnachie,Matteo Monelli,Matteo Monelli,Scott Chapman +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of two fields located 26kpc (∼5 radial scalelengths) from the center of M31 along the south-west semimajor axis of the disc is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying the faint structure of galaxies: the late-type spiral NGC 2403
Michael K. Barker,Annette M. N. Ferguson,Mike Irwin,Nobuo Arimoto,Pascale Jablonka,Pascale Jablonka +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a wide-field analysis of the isolated late-type spiral NGC 2403 using data obtained with Suprime-Cam on the Subaru telescope is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resolving the stellar outskirts of m81: evidence for a faint, extended structural component*
TL;DR: In this article, a wide field census of resolved stellar populations in the northern half of M81, conducted with Suprime-Cam on the 8 m Subaru telescope and covering an area similar to 0.3 deg(2).
Journal ArticleDOI
The star formation history in the far outer disc of M33
Michael K. Barker,Annette M. N. Ferguson,Andrew A. Cole,Rodrigo A. Ibata,Mike Irwin,Geraint F. Lewis,Tammy A. Smecker-Hane,Nial R. Tanvir +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging to study the star formation history (SFH) of two fields at 9.1 and 11.6 kpc along M33's northern major axis.
