Different techniques have been devised to separate multiple GC populations and perform dynamical analyses. ... Within this project, the PhD candidate will examine mock models of multiple GC populations around massive galaxies, devising `blinded' functional tests and comparing the possible sources of bias in different techniques....

We characterize the dust in NGC 628 and NGC 6946, two nearby spiral galaxies in the KINGFISH sample. With data from 3.6 ЮМm to 500 ЮМm, dust models are strongly constrained. ... The dust models successfully reproduce the observed global and resolved spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The overall dust/H mass ratio is estimated to be 0.0082 ТБ 0.0017 for NGC 628, and 0.0063 ТБ 0.0009 for NGC 6946, consistent with what is expected for galaxies of near-solar metallicity. ...

... Abstract: We present Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations for spiral galaxies modelled as a stellar disk and a two-phase clumpy dust distribution. ... As a general result, clumpy models are less opaque than the corresponding homogeneous models. ... 0.00 0.15 0.50 0.1 0.5 1.0 2.0 5.0 10.0 0.25 X . ... We have also produced several homogeneous models, to compare to the clumpy models. ... Homogeneous and clumpy models with the same tauV have the same dust mass. ...

Observation and modelling of main sequence star chromospheres. ... We compare our calculations to recent high res­ olution observations for selected stars in a narrow spectral range ((R­I) џ =0.875\Sigma0.05); we show that Hff line profiles behave as expected, with a tight correlation be­ tween the line width and equivalent width. ... We show that the hydrogen series dominate the radiative cooling in the spectral lines (form 40% to 90%) for Hff emission line stars. ...
