PublicationGlobular cluster systems of six shell galaxies
Context: .Shells in Elliptical Galaxies are faint, sharp-edged features, believed to provide evidence of a recent (˜ 0.5 - 2 × 109 years ago) merger event. We...

TalkGTC spectroscopic study of stellar clusters in M81
The nearby spiral galaxy M81 contains a population of 3 kinds of stellar clusters - super star clusters, globular clusters and fuzzy clusters. Over the past few...

PublicationH α morphologies of star clusters: a LEGUS study of H II region evolution time-scales and stochasticity in low-mass clusters
The morphology of H II regions around young star clusters provides insight into the time-scales and physical processes that clear a cluster's natal gas. We...
