Super Star Clusters

The most intense episodes of star formation in the local universe result in the formation of "super star clusters." Super star clusters are the most massive and dense of all stellar clusters and are consistent with being young analogues of classical globular clusters. My research involves searching for and determining the physical properties of super star clusters in extragalactic systems.
