Published purpose
This project will support the reduction, calibration, and analysis of imaging data of several nearby giant galaxies from the UVIT instrument aboard the AstroSat space telescope. These data will be analyzed to study the properties of the giant galaxies and their related satellite systems including dwarf galaxies and globular cluster systems. These galaxies are selected to cover a range of local galactic densities so that star formation rates and histories can be studied in the context of local galactic environments. The results will complement related ground-based observations to provide a truly unique and valuable science opportunity.
