Potential Nitrogen Enrichment via Direct-collapse Wolf–Rayet Stars in a z = 4.7 Star-forming Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present analyses of a nitrogen-enriched star-forming galaxy, ID60001, at z = 4.6928 based on James Webb Space Telescope/NIRSpec Multi-Object Spectroscopy and NIRCam photometry. From rest-frame optical emission lines we derive the nitrogen-to-oxygen (N/

Investigating Enols Chemistry in the Interstellar Medium: Rotational Spectroscopy and Interstellar Search of (E)-1-Propenol

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Enols represent highly reactive intermediates toward the synthesis of complex organic molecules in the interstellar medium (ISM) and serve as key tracers of nonequilibrium chemistry driven by Galactic cosmic rays.

The Interstellar Heritage of Comets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Comets have similar compositions to interstellar medium ices, suggesting at least some of their molecules may be inherited from an earlier stage of evolution.

Dust-evacuated Zones near Massive Stars: Consequences of Dust Dynamics on Star-forming Regions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stars form within dense cores composed of both gas and dust within molecular clouds. However, despite the crucial role that dust plays in the star formation process, its dynamics is frequently overlooked, with the common assumption being a constant ...

Aperture and Resolution Effects on Ultraviolet Star-forming Properties: Insights from Local Galaxies and Implications for High-redshift Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present an analysis of the effects of spectral resolution and aperture scale on derived galaxy properties using far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of local star-forming galaxies from the International Ultraviolet Explorer ( R ∼ 250, field of view (FOV ...

Discovery of MgS and NaS in the Interstellar Medium and Tentative Detection of CaO

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the first detection of the metal-bearing molecules sodium sulfide and magnesium sulfide and the tentative detection of calcium monoxide in the interstellar medium toward the Galactic center molecular cloud G+0.693-0.027.

A First Taste of MEAD (Measuring Extinction and Abundances of Dust). I. Diffuse Milky Way Interstellar Dust Extinction Features in JWST Infrared Spectra

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the initial results of the Measuring Extinction and Abundances of Dust project, with a focus on the dust extinction features observed in our JWST near- and mid-infrared spectra of nine diffuse Milky Way sightlines (1.2 ≤ A ( V ) ≤ 2.5).
