Hubble Space Telescope Observations of M32: The Color-Magnitude Diagram [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We present a V-I color-magnitude diagram for a region 1'-2' from the center of M32 based on Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 images. The broad color-luminosity distribution of red giants shows that the stellar population comprises stars with a wide range in ...

The Importance of Optical Wavelength Data on Atmospheric Retrievals of Exoplanet Transmission Spectra

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Exoplanet transmission spectra provide rich information about the chemical composition, clouds, and temperature structure of exoplanet atmospheres. Most exoplanet transmission spectra only span infrared wavelengths (≳1 μ m), which can preclude crucial ...

Hubble Space Telescope Photometry of Globular Clusters in M81

open access: yes, 2011
We perform aperture photometry and profile fitting on 419 globular cluster (GC) candidates with mV \leq 23 mag identified in Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys BVI imaging, and estimate the effective radii of the clusters.

Status Report on the Chicago-Carnegie Hubble Program (CCHP): Measurement of the Hubble Constant Using the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the latest results from the Chicago-Carnegie Hubble Program to measure the Hubble constant, using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The overall program aims to calibrate three independent methods: (1) tip of the red giant branch

M104: The Sombrero Galaxy Lithograph [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This lithograph is part of a series designed to bring the latest Hubble Space Telescope images into the classroom. Students make comparisons, conduct research, organize their materials, and present a report describing how a galaxy's orientation affects ...

Protostars, Dust Globules, and a Herbig-Haro Object in the LMC Superbubble N51D

open access: yes, 2005
Using Spitzer Space Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope observations of the superbubble N51D, we have identified three young stellar objects (YSOs) in dust globules, and made the first detection of a Herbig-Haro object outside the Galaxy.
