The Physical Nature of Rest-UV Galaxy Morphology During the Peak Epoch of Galaxy Formation [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J.656:1-26,2007, 2006
Motivated by the irregular and little-understood morphologies of z ~ 2 - 3 galaxies, we use non-parametric coefficents to quantify the morphologies of 216 galaxies which have been spectroscopically confirmed to lie at redshifts z = 1.8 - 3.4 in the GOODS-N field.

Stellar contents and star formation in the young open cluster Stock 8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present $UBVI_c$ CCD photometry of the young open cluster Stock 8 with the aim to study the basic properties and star formation scenario in this region. The radius of the cluster is found to be $\sim 6^{\prime}$ ($\sim 3.6$ pc) and the reddening within the cluster region varies from $E(B-V)=0.40$ to 0.60 mag. The cluster is located at a distance of $
