We present results on the star formation history of the Local Group dSph galaxy Leo I, obtained through the analysis of its deep HST color-magnitude diagram...
Leo I and Leo II are the two most remote dSph galaxies satellites of the Milky Way, situated at about 250 Kpc of it. They are objects of similar size and low...
The Star Formation History of Nearby Dwarf Galaxies: problems, methods and results
The synthetic color-magnitude diagram (CMD) methodology to study the star formation history (SFH) of nearby galaxies is briefly reviewed. Firstly the most...
The star formation history of the Fornax dSph galaxy using the new synthetic color-magnitude diagram code IAC-STAR
We present VLT-FORS1 color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) reaching the oldest main-sequence turnoffs for three fields at two galactocentric distances in the Fornax...
The star formation history of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy
We present the first results of a comprehensive HST study of the star-formation history of Fornax dSph, based on WFPC2 imaging of 7 Fornax fields. Our...
