Subaru Suprime-Cam Wide-field BVI Stellar Photometry of the M33 Galaxy
We have surveyed the complete extent of the disk of M33—a gas-rich low-mass dwarf spiral galaxy in the Local Group. The B-, V-, and I-passband (the Johnson–Cousins system) CCD images (typical seeing ∼0.″8) were obtained with the Subaru Telescope equipped with the Suprime-Cam mosaic camera. The wide-field (∼1.°0 × 1.°5) catalog of 803,095 (15 ≤ V ≤ 25) starlike objects, measured using the point-spread function and aperture photometry techniques, is presented. We determined the distance modulus of M33 using the tip of the red giant branch (ITRGB = 20.64 ± 0.02) as a reference point of (m − M)0 = 24.63 ± 0.02stat ± 0.06syst (843 kpc). We found young (≲100 Myr) stellar populations residing up to the deprojected radius of ∼10 kpc. The scale length of the young main-sequence (MS) star surface-number density in the range of radial distances from 7 to 9 kpc is 0.53 ± 0.03 kpc. The youngest MS stars (≲15 Myr) reside up to the radius of ∼8 kpc. This distribution of stellar populations may suggest an outside-in scenario of recent star formation in the disk of M33.
