Compact clusters in LMC catalogue of stars

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The LMC is an ideal environment for studying stellar MFs, because it contains a large population of compact clusters at different evolutionary stages.

Description

We aim to obtain constraints on the initial MFs (IMFs) of our sample clusters on the basis of their present-day MFs, combined with our understanding of their dynamical and photometric evolution. We use Hubble Space Telescope photometry for six rich, compact star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), with ages ranging from 0.01 to 1.0Gyr, to derive the clusters' stellar mass functions (MFs) at their half-mass radii.
