Hst Proposal Id #5794 Galaxies &Amp, Clusters

Scientific paper

This proposal aims to utilize the high resolution imaging capability of the HST's Wide Field/Planetary Camera {WFPC} to study the central regions of nearby elliptical galaxies. Specifically we propose to carry out a systematic search for faint stellar shells and globular clusters. Combining the results with wide-area, ground-based imaging, we hope to put better constraints on the role of mergers and interactions in the formation and evolution of elliptical galaxies.
