The stellar halo of NGC 5128
Presenter: Marina Rejkuba (ESO)
Abstract: NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is the nearest easily observable giant elliptical galaxy and as such an ideal laboratory for studies of star formation history and halo assembly in giant ellipticals. I wll present the results of the reconstruction of the star formation history of the halo of Centaurus A based on deep HST and ground based imaging observations.
