The ACS Survey of Globular Clusters has used Hubble Space Telescope's Wide-Field Channel to obtain uniform imaging of 65 of the nearest globular clusters to provide an extensive homogeneous data set for a broad range of scientific investigations. The survey goals required not only a uniform observing strategy, but also a uniform reduction strategy

The details of the early star formation history of isolated dwarf galaxies can shed light on the role of the cosmic re-ionization and supernova feedback in galaxy formation and evolution. In this paper, we present the project { Local Cosmology from Isolated Dwarfs (LCID), aimed at deriving detailed star formation histories for a sample of Local

We explore the size evolution of 831 very massive galaxies (Mstar≥1011 h70-2 Msun) since z˜ 2 using the combined capabilities of the large near infrared Palomar/DEEP-2 survey, and the superb resolution of the HST ACS camera. We split our sample according to their light concentration using the Sérsic index n. At a given stellar mass, both low (n 2.5

We analyse high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging of the nuclear starburst region of M 82, obtained as part of the Hubble Heritage mosaic made of this galaxy, in four filters (Johnson-Cousins equivalent B, V, and I broad bands, and an Hα narrow-band filter), as well as subsequently acquired U-band images. We find
