Collection / M81 / M82 · Scope

Faint Structures

Resolved stellar populations and faint substructure around two contrasting nearby galaxies.

M81 · ANGST / GHOSTS

33 overlapping HST ACS/WFC fields.

Approximately 1.89 million raw sources are ingested, with astrometric duplicates removed using a 0.18 arcsec cKDTree match before density-map analysis.

M82 · ANGST

Six overlapping HST pointings.

Geometry-specific masks handle field overlaps. Substructure detection uses a localized median background, Poisson S/N mapping, and watershed segmentation.
