The THESEUS Space Mission and the Infrared Telescope Calibration Unit
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Transient High‐Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is an ESA M7 mission concept currently in Phase A, designed to exploit gamma‐ray bursts to probe the early Universe while advancing multi‐messenger and time‐domain astrophysics. To achieve its ambitious goals, THESEUS will combine wide‐band x‐ray and gamma‐ray monitors with an

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

Modeling the Ages and Chemical Abundances of Elliptical Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalSpectroscopic studies of elliptical galaxies show that their stellar population ages, mean metallicity, and α enhancement traced by [Mg/Fe] all increase with galaxy stellar mass or velocity dispersion.

Quantifying the Impact of Relativistic Precession on Tidal Disruption Event Light Curves
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The tidal field of a black hole can turn a star into a gas stream whose orbit can precess, especially if the a black hole is rapidly spinning. In this work, we investigate the impact of precession on the light curves of tidal disruption events (TDE).

The Astrophysical JournalSpatial patterns of stellar elemental abundances encode rich information about a galaxy’s formation history. We analyze the radial, vertical, and azimuthal variations of metals in stars, both today and at formation, in the FIRE-2 cosmological simulations

, 2008 We present recent results on the evolution of the colour-magnitude relation and of the star formation activity in galaxy clusters since z~0.8. Results are based on the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) - an ESO large programme aimed at the study of ...

Chemo-dynamical Evolution of Galaxies
, 2023 Stars are fossils that retain the history of their host galaxies. Elements heavier than helium are created inside stars and are ejected when they die. From the spatial distribution of elements in galaxies, it is therefore possible to constrain the physical processes during galaxy formation and evolution.

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The goal of this study is to confirm the feasibility of the use of digitized low dispersive MtWilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \alpha $$ survey astronomical photographic plates for modern astrophysical research. The detection of highly redshifted objects, such as early galaxies and quasars, is fundamental to understanding the universe's ...
