Abstract

We observed the local starburst galaxies, NGC 1569 and NGC 1705 with the HST/ACS High Resolution Channel in the U, V, and I filters. The superb resolution of the images (0.018 arcsec pix−1) shows, for the first time, the real morphology of the Super Star Clusters. We derive the structural parameters and total luminosity and recalculate, with the new parameters, the virial mass of the clusters.
