JWST Observations of Starbursts: Massive Star Clusters in the Central Starburst of M82

We present a near infrared (NIR) candidate star cluster catalog for the central kiloparsec of M82 based on new JWST NIRCam images. We identify star cluster candidates using the F250M filter, finding 1357 star cluster candidates with stellar masses >10^4 M_\odot. Compared to previous optical catalogs, nearly all (87%) of...
