JWST Photometry of Globular Cluster Populations in MACS0417.5−1154

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Deep JWST imaging of the massive galaxy cluster MACS0417.5−1154, at redshift z = 0.443, reveals a huge population of globular clusters (GCs) and ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs) primarily distributed around its single central giant brightest cluster galaxy ...

HEAD IN THE STARS, FEET ON THE GROUND: Scale and Astronomy Initiatives in Southern Africa

open access: yesCultural Anthropology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 571-596, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This article explores the evolution of radio astronomy in South Africa and Madagascar, focusing on how “scale” functions as both a way of understanding the world and marking differences in existence. In outer space research, the ground is crucial but often overlooked.

The Structure of Galaxies I: Surface Photometry Techniques [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2012
AbstractThis project uses the 2MASS all-sky image database to study the structure of galaxies over a range of luminosities, sizes and morphological types. This first paper in this series will outline the techniques, reliability and data products to our surface photometry program.

Surface Photometry of Spiral Galaxy NGC 5005 and Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4278

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2018
Two galaxies have been chosen, spiral galaxy NGC 5005 and elliptical galaxy NGC 4278 to study their photometric properties by using surface photometric techniques with griz-Filters. Observations are obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Reassessing the Relationship Between Meteor Radio Afterglows and Optical Persistent Trains

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Meteor radio afterglows (MRAs) and optical persistent trains (PTs) are two types of long‐lived phenomena which are occasionally observed following the occurrence of a meteor. Both phenomena are thought to be produced by intrinsic emission mechanisms; PTs have been associated with chemiluminescent reactions between meteoric metals and ...

Speculator:emulating stellar population synthesis for fast and accurate galaxy spectra and photometry

open access: yes, 2019
We present \textsc{speculator} -- a fast, accurate, and flexible framework for emulating stellar population synthesis (SPS) models for predicting galaxy spectra and photometry. For emulating spectra, we use principal component analysis to construct a set
