Star clusters in NGC 3256

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

In this paper we derive ages and masses for 276 clusters in the merger galaxy NGC 3256.

Description

This was achieved by taking accurate photometry in four wavebands from archival Hubble Space Telescope images. Photometric measurements are compared to synthetic stellar population (SSP) models to find the most probable age, mass and extinction.

The cluster population of NGC 3256 reveals an increase in the star formation rate (SFR) over the last 100Myr and the initial cluster mass function (ICMF) is best described by a power-law relation with slope alpha=1.85+/-0.12.
