Reconstructing merger timelines using star cluster

Abstract

We present near infrared imaging and integral field spectroscopy of the centre of the dusty luminous infrared galaxy merger MCG+08-11-002, taken using the Near InfraRed Camera 2 (NIRC2) and the OH-Sup. We aim to reconstruct the merger timeline of this galaxy using the star cluster properties. The star clusters in this galaxy are found to be young and have a high star formation rate. The merger timeline is reconstructed by analyzing the star cluster ages and metallicities. This study provides new insights into the merger history of this galaxy and the role of star clusters in galaxy evolution.
