Discovery of Metal-poor and Distant Pre–Main Sequence Candidates in WLM with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present the discovery of 12 metal-poor and ​​​distant pre–main sequence (PMS) candidates in the dwarf irregular galaxy Wolf–Lundmark–Melotte ∼968 kpc away, at a present-day metallicity of [Fe/H] ∼ –0.9.

Measuring Resolved Star Formation Histories from High-precision Color–Magnitude Diagrams with StarFormationHistories.jl

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Understanding how and when galaxies formed stars over the history of the Universe is fundamental to the study of galaxy evolution. The star formation histories (SFHs) of galaxies in the local Universe can be measured with high precision using deep ...

Mock Observations: Morphological Analysis of Galaxies in TNG100 Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
In this study, we investigate the morphology of galaxies in the TNG100 simulation by applying mock observation techniques and compare the results with the observational data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

The inclination of the dwarf irregular galaxy Holmberg II

open access: yes, 2014
We provide constraints on the inclination angle of the H\,{\sc i} disk of the dwarf irregular galaxy Holmberg II (Ho II) from stability analysis of the outer gaseous disk. We point out that a mean inclination angle of 27 degrees and thus a flat circular velocity of ~60 km/s, is required to have a level of gravitational stability similar to that found ...

Emergence of the Galaxy Morphology–Star Formation Activity–Clustercentric Radius Relations in Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate when and how the relations of galaxy morphology and star-forming activity with clustercentric radius become evident in galaxy clusters. We identify 162 galaxy clusters with total mass ${{M}}_{\mathrm{tot}}^{\mathrm{cl}}\gt 5\times {10}^{13}

COSMIC-L: A Photometric Catalog of Observed Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The Magellanic Clouds are two nearby dwarf irregular galaxies, the study of which can help us in understanding galaxy and stellar evolution. In particular, the Large Magellanic Cloud, the larger one, contains approximately 30 billion stars at various ...

Probing the Relationship Between Early Star Formation and CO in the Dwarf Irregular Galaxy WLM with JWST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Wolf–Lundmark–Melotte (WLM) is a Local Group dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxy with a metallicity 13% of solar. At 1 Mpc, the relative isolation of WLM provides a unique opportunity to investigate the internal mechanisms of star formation at low ...
