Evolutionary Processes in Nearby Clusters of Galaxies

邻近星系团的演化过程。罗斯正在进行一项观测计划，使用哈勃太空望远镜（HST），阿雷西博和钱德拉（即将发射）来研究附近星系团中的单个星暴和星暴后星系。 在Cerro Tololo和Kitt Peak的HST成像和地基光谱仪用于附近的五个富星系团，包括后发座星系团。 阿雷西博被用来研究飞马座I、后发座和室女座星系团中的星暴星系。 来自钱德拉的数据将用于研究一个有趣的双星系团。 通过将全球调查工作与对单个星系的详细研究相结合，罗斯博士正在确定附近星系团中工作的进化过程，并评估附近星系团中运行的过程与那些负责Butcher-Oemler效应的过程之间的联系。

Evolutionary processes in nearby clusters of galaxiesJames A RoseDr. Rose is conducting an observational program using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), Arecibo, and Chandra (to be launched) to study individual starburst and post starburst galaxies in nearby clusters of galaxies. The HST imaging and ground based spectroscopy with telescopes at Cerro Tololo and Kitt Peak is used for five nearby rich clusters, including the Coma cluster. Arecibo is used to study starburst galaxies in Pegasus I, Coma, and Virgo clusters. Data from Chandra will be used to study an interesting double cluster. By combining global survey work with detailed studies of individual galaxies, Dr. Rose is identifying the evolutionary processes at work in nearby clusters, and evaluating the connection between the processes operating in nearby clusters with those responsible for the Butcher-Oemler effect.
