We present the results on the star formation history and extinction in the disk of M82 over spatial scales of 10 (~180 pc). Multi-band photometric data covering from the far ultraviolet to the near infrared bands were fitted to a grid of synthetic spectral energy distributions. We obtained distribution functions of age and extinction for each of the 117 apertures analyzed, taking into account observational errors through Monte-Carlo simulations. These distribution functions were fitted with gaussian functions to obtain the mean ages and extinctions along with errors on them. The analyzed zones include the high surface brightness complexes defined by OConnell & Mangano (1978). We found that these complexes share the same star formation history and extinction as the field stellar populations in the disk. There is an indication that the stellar populations are marginally older at the outer disk (450 Myr at ~3 kpc) as compared to the inner disk (100 Myr at 0.5 kpc). For the nuclear regions (radius less than 500 pc), we obtained an age of less than 10 Myr. The results obtained in this work are consistent with the idea that the 0.5-3 kpc part of the disk of M82 formed around 90% of the stellar mass in a star-forming episode that started around 450 Myr ago lasting for about 350 Myr. We found that field stars are the major contributors to the flux over the spatial scales analyzed in this study, with stellar cluster contribution being 7% in the nucleus and 0.7% in the disk.
The Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) is an ongoing 3D spectroscopic survey of 600 nearby galaxies of all kinds. This pioneer survey is providing valuable clues on how galaxies form and evolve. Processed through spectral synthesis techni
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys observations of the stellar populations in two fields lying at 20 and 23 kpc from the centre of M31 along the south-west semi-major axis. These data enable the construction of colour-
Spectroscopic, photometric and dynamical data of the inner 3 kpc part of the starburst galaxy M82 are analyzed in order to investigate the star formation history of the stellar disk. The long-slit spectra along the major axis are dominated by Balmer
We reveal cosmic star-formation history obscured by dust using deep infrared observation with the AKARI. A continuous filter coverage in the mid-IR wavelength (2.4, 3.2, 4.1, 7, 9, 11, 15, 18, and 24um) by the AKARI satellite allows us to estimate re
We present a detailed study of the Magellanic irregular galaxy NGC 4449 based on both archival and new photometric data from the Legacy Extragalactic UV Survey, obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys and Wide Field Camer
