Mathematical Morphology and Its Applications to Signal and Image Processing
This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology, ISMM 2013 held in Uppsala, Sweden, in May 2013. The 41 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 52 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on theory; trees and hierarchies; adaptive morphology; colour; manifolds and metrics; filtering; detectors and descriptors; and applications.
Mathematical Morphology and Its Applications to Signal and Image Processing
This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology, ISMM 2019, held in Saarbrücken, Germany, in July 2019. The 40 revised full papers presented together with one invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Theory, Discrete Topology and Tomography, Trees and Hierarchies, Multivariate Morphology, Computational Morphology, Machine Learning, Segmentation, Applications in Engineering, and Applications in (Bio)medical Imaging.
The Resolved Stellar Populations of M 32
We present the deepest optical CMD to date of M 32, obtained from HST ACS/HRC images. The dominant feature is the RC, whose CMD location suggests a mean age between 8 and 10 Gyr for [Fe/H] = -0.2 in M 32. We detect for the first time the RGB and AGB bumps in M 32 which constrain its mean age to be 5-10 Gyr old at 2' from the center. Bright AGB stars indicate the presence of intermediate-age populations. A detected blue component of stars may indicate for the first time the presence of a young stellar population of ~0.5 Gyr in our M 32 field. However, it is likely that the younger stars of this blue plume belong to M 31 rather than to M 32. The fainter stars populating the blue plume indicate the presence of stars not younger than 1 Gyr and/or blue straggler stars in M 32.
Mathematical Morphology and Its Applications to Signal and Image Processing
This book contains the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 12th International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology, ISMM 2015 held in Reykjavik, Iceland, in May 2015. The 62 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 72 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on evaluations and applications; hierarchies; color, multivalued and orientation fields; optimization, differential calculus and probabilities; topology and discrete geometry; and algorithms and implementation.
Origin and Evolution of the Elements: Volume 4, Carnegie Observatories Astrophysics Series
This Carnegie volume discusses the origin and evolution of elements in our galaxy and others.
Stellar Populations
IAU Symposium 262 presents reviews on the current understanding of the theories of stellar evolution, galaxy formation and galaxy evolution. It emphasises what we have learned in the past few years from massive surveys covering large portions of the sky (e.g. SDSS, HDF, UDF, GOODS, COSMOS). Several critical aspects of research on stellar populations deserve further effort in order to be brought in tune with other areas of astrophysical research. The next ten years will see the opening of major observatories that will increase the quality and quantity of astronomical data by orders of magnitude. The expected benefits from these instruments for the study of stellar populations are explored. This critical review of state of the art observational and theoretical work will appeal to all those working on stellar populations, from distant galaxies to local resolved galaxies and galactic star clusters.
The Formation of Galactic Bulges
Bulges lie at the center of spiral galaxies. Until recently, they were thought to host uniquely old stellar populations and thus provide a key for understanding galaxy formation. Recent observations from the ground and space have drastically changed our view on the nature of bulges and shown that they can also contain dust, gas, and star-forming regions. This timely volume presents review articles by a panel of international experts who gathered at a conference at the Space Telescope Science Institute, Baltimore, to address several fundamental questions: What is a bulge? When and how did bulges form? And, on what timescales? This volume provides a state-of-the-art picture of our new understanding of these fundamental building-blocks of galaxies, and a stimulating reference point for all those interested in galaxy formation.
