Investigating Diffuse Starlight in Anthill Galaxy with HST
Using archival HST WFC3 data taken in broadband filters F105W and F160W of the proto-cluster galaxy 4C 41.17 (also known as the Anthill Galaxy), we image the diffuse low-surface-brightness stellar continuum that traces a large stellar population in the circum-galactic medium (CGM). These observations provide color information on the various stellar populations, to investigate their relative ages in search for in-situ star formation in-between the proto-cluster galaxies at high redshift.
About Me
Hello and welcome! I’m Azia Robinson, an astrophysicist and educator driven by a fascination with the mechanics of the universe and a passion for uncovering its many mysteries.
My research focuses on massive star formation and galaxy evolution, with a particular emphasis on high redshift objects.
By leveraging multi-wavelength observational data, I aim to illuminate how high-mass stars are born, evolve, and influence the large-scale structure of the early universe.
On this site, you’ll find an overview of my academic background, detailed descriptions of my research projects, a comprehensive list of my publications, and more—all reflecting the spirit and dedication that drive my work.
I hope these pages convey the same sense of wonder and curiosity that inspires me every day.
Thank you for visiting! I invite you to explore my CV, learn about my scientific journey, and connect with me to discuss new ideas, teaching strategies, and more .
Let’s continue exploring the universe together!
Hello, there! I would love to hear from you.
