Evidence for Large-scale, Rapid Gas Inflows in z ∼ 2 Star-forming Disks
We report high-quality H α /CO imaging spectroscopy of nine massive (log median stellar mass = 10.65 M _⊙ ) disk galaxies on the star-forming main sequence (henceforth SFGs), near the peak of cosmic galaxy evolution ( z ∼ 1.1–2.5), taken with the ESO ...

Exploring Dark Photon Production and Kinetic Mixing Constraints in Heavy‐Ion Collisions
ABSTRACT Vector U‐bosons, often referred to as “dark photons,” are potential candidates for mediating dark matter interactions. In this study, we outline a procedure to derive theoretical constraints on the upper bound of the kinetic mixing parameter ϵ2MU$$ {\upvarepsilon}^2\left({M}_U\right) $$ using dilepton data from heavy‐ion from SIS to RHIC ...

The Hubble sequence: just a vestige of merger events? [PDF]
Abr: We investigate whether the Hubble sequence can be reproduced by the relics of merger events. We verify that, at zmed=0.65, the abundant population of anomalous starbursts is mainly linked to the local spirals.

The Strength of Bisymmetric Modes in SDSS-IV/MaNGA Barred Galaxy Kinematics
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-IV/Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) Survey data provide an unprecedented opportunity to study the internal motions of galaxies and, in particular, represent the largest sample of barred galaxy ...

Stochastic Quantum Mechanics in Curved Spaces: Application to Schwarzschild Black Holes
ABSTRACT In this work, we start from the hypothesis that the universe lives in a Gravitational Wave Background (GWB). From this hypothesis, it follows that space–time is not locally flat because we have to take into account the fluctuations of the GWB in space–time. This implies that sufficiently small particles will feel these oscillations, preventing

Closing the Gap between Observed Low-mass Galaxy H i Kinematics and Cold Dark Matter Predictions
Testing the standard cosmological model (ΛCDM) at small scales is challenging. Galaxies that inhabit low-mass dark matter halos provide an ideal test bed for dark matter models by linking observational properties of galaxies at small scales (low mass ...

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4
ABSTRACT We combine infrared (IR) observations collected by the James Webb Space Telescope with optical deep images by the Hubble Space Telescope taken ~20 years earlier to compute proper‐motion membership for the globular cluster (GC) M4 (NGC 6121) along its entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS).

Revisiting Variable Stars Near Globular Clusters South of −29° Declination
ABSTRACT We review an often‐cited but seldom‐accessed catalogue by Fourcade and Laborde (1966) of 785 variable stars near 47 southern Galactic globular clusters, and recover the locations of 85 stars that were not incorporated into subsequent variable star catalogues and hence have become “lost” to the literature.

Exploration of Halo Substructures in Integrals-of-motion Space with Gaia Data Release 3
Using kinematic data from the Gaia Data Release 3 catalog, along with metallicity estimates robustly derived from Gaia BP/RP spectra, we have explored the Galactic stellar halo in search of both known and potentially new substructures.

White Dwarf Stars in the Big Data Era
ABSTRACT White dwarf stars are the most common endpoint of stellar evolution. Therefore, these old, numerous and compact objects provide valuable information on the late stages of stellar evolution, the physics of dense plasma and the structure and evolution of our Galaxy.
