ICMF of super star clusters

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The initial cluster mass function (ICMF) is a fundamental property of star formation in galaxies.

Description

To gauge its universality, we measure and compare the ICMFs in irregular and spiral galaxies. Our sample of irregular galaxies is based on 13 nearby galaxies selected from a volume-limited sample from the fifth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), from which about 320 young (<=20Myr), massive (>~3x10^49M_{sun}_) clusters or associations were selected using an automated source extraction routine.

The extinctions, ages, and masses were determined by comparing their u'g'i'z' magnitudes to those generated from starburst models.
