WFPC2 Observations of Compact Star Cluster Nuclei in Low-Luminosity Spiral Galaxies
We have used the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope to obtain F450W and F814W (B- and I-band) observations of the compact star cluster nuclei of the nearby, late-type, low-luminosity spiral galaxies NGC 4395, NGC 4242, and ESO 359-029. In addition, we analyze archival WFPC2 …
