General Description

• Our observations aim at resolving the nuclear star clusters in 5 nearby
  bulgeless galaxies, NGC247, NGC300, NGC5102, NGC 5206, and NGC7793. The
  observations will yield spatially resolved spectra of the nuclear clusters from
  which we will derive their stellar populations and kinematics. Modeling of these
  data will (1) strongly constrain the formation history of the nuclear clusters,
  and (2) will provide dynamical mass measurements of the clusters.
  
  The data will be complemented SINFONI and NACO data.
