The Extragalactic Distance Database (EDD) was created as a repository for high quality, redshift-independent distances. A key component of EDD is the Color Magnitude Diagrams/Tip of the Red Giant Branch (CMDs/TRGB) catalog, which provides information on the stellar content of nearby galaxies observed with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Here we provide a decadal update to this catalog, which has now doubled in size to over 500 galaxies. We highlight the additions to our data reduction and analysis techniques, and provide examples of the science that has been made possible with this large data set. We find the TRGB to be a reliable measure for distance, and we aim to extend its distance coverage with HST to every galaxy within 10 Mpc. In the near-future, the combination of the James Webb Space Telescope and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will dramatically increase the number of targets within our grasp.

Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey with The Hubble Space Telescope. Stellar cluster catalogues and first insights into cluster formation and evolution in NGC 628
我们报告了大量的努力,这是生产全面的高层次的年轻星团(YSC)目录的一个显着的一部分星系观察与遗产银河系外紫外线调查(LEGUS)哈勃国库计划。我们提出的方法来提取集群的位置,验证其真正的性质,产生多波段测光(从NUV到NIR),并通过光谱能量分布拟合分析得出其物理性质。我们使用附近的螺旋星系NGC628作为一个测试案例,展示了LEGUS将对我们理解YSC的形成和演化及其宿主星系内的紧凑恒星协会产生的影响。我们分析了从紫外到近红外的簇光度函数,发现在亮端和所有波长处都有一个陡峭的变化,这表明发光簇的缺乏。NGC 628的质量函数与斜率为$\sim -2$的幂律分布和$10^5$ M $_\odot$的几倍截断一致。在它们形成之后,YSC和紧密协会遵循不同的进化路径。YSC存活时间更长,证实它们是潜在的结合系统。星系团在时间尺度上的消失与恒星形成区的等级组织相当,这表明它们是一个膨胀的系统。我们发现在NGC628的内部区域存在与质量无关的星系团分裂,而在星系的外部,几乎没有或根本没有分裂。我们观察到更快的破坏率低质量($\leq$ $10^4$ M $_\odot$)集群表明,一个质量依赖的组件是必要的,以充分描述在NGC628的YSC中断过程。

通过对最新的类星体表和旋转测度表的交叉识别,获得了2642个类星体的旋转测度。在扣除前景银河系的法拉第旋转后,我们得到了类星体的剩余旋转测度。我们仔细地排除了RRM的测量和系统不确定性的影响以及来自离群值的大RRM,并得到了RRM的实色散的红移演化的边缘证据,从$z=0$到$z\sim1$,RRM的实色散稳定地增加到10 rad m $^{-2}$,并在更高的红移值附近饱和。以星系、星系团或宇宙细丝形式存在的电离云可以产生不同色散宽度的RRM演化。然而,目前的数据集不能约束来自星系晕和宇宙网的贡献。未来的RM测量类星体的大样本与高精度的希望解开这些不同的贡献。
