Dust around Massive Stars Is Agnostic to Galactic Environment: New Insights from PHAT/BEAST
Resolving the environments of massive stars is crucial for understanding their formation mechanisms and their impact on galaxy evolution. An important open question is whether massive stars found in diffuse regions outside spiral arms formed in situ or ...

VERITAS Observations of M31 (the Andromeda Galaxy) [PDF]
Diffuse gamma rays are tracers of cosmic rays, providing information on their origin, interaction and diffusion through a galaxy. M 31 (the Andromeda Galaxy) is the closest spiral galaxy to the Milky Way (d = 780 kpc) and is very well studied at all wavelengths. Thus it is a prime target for the study of diffuse gamma-ray emission. The very-high-energy

The Role of Pressure in the Structure and Stability of GMCs in the Andromeda Galaxy
We revisit the role of pressure in the structure, stability, and confinement of Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in light of recently published observations and analysis of the GMCs in the Andromeda galaxy (M31). That analysis showed that, in the absence of

Local Analogs of Primordial Galaxies: In Search of Intermediate-mass Black Holes with JWST NIRSpec
Local low-metallicity galaxies with signatures of possible accretion activity are ideal laboratories in which to search for the lowest-mass black holes and study their impact on the host galaxy.
