Determining Total Infrared Luminosities from Submillimeter Measurements of High-redshift Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Determining total infrared luminosities for very high-redshift galaxies is important to estimate the rate of star formation in heavily dust-embedded environments.

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—VI. The Lowest‐Mass Objects in M 4 and the Galactic Bulge

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 9, November 2025.
ABSTRACT We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of M 4—the closest globular cluster—that probe the lower Main Sequence down to the hydrogen‐burning limit. The unveiled stellar sequence reaches much fainter luminosities than previously possible, revealing a few extremely red objects that are consistent with brown dwarfs as cool as Teff∼1000K$

Pairing statistics for infrared-luminous galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1993
A knowledge of the pairing fraction of IR-selected galaxies is important in understanding the role of interactions in star formation and nuclear activity. It is clear that interactions are extremely common among the most IR-luminous systems, but results have been inconsistent for less luminous systems; this may result from using peculiar morphology as ...

Nuclear Spectral Energy Distributions of Luminous Infrared Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present nuclear (100–150 pc) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for a sample of 23 nearby luminous infrared galaxies hosting a total of 28 nuclei. We gather aperture photometry from high-resolution X-ray to submillimeter data for each nuclear region

Vision at high latitudes: High sensitivity without specific boreal adaptations in photoreception in reindeer (Rangifer tarandus L.)

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 2573-2587, October 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The light climate at high latitudes, in particular the extended twilight of winter and the reduced diel variation in light level in midsummer and midwinter, potentially constrains visual function and the synchronisation of temporal organisation in polar species. In this

GALAXY-WIDE SHOCKS IN LATE-MERGER STAGE LUMINOUS INFRARED GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We present an integral field spectroscopic study of two nearby Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs) that exhibit evidence of widespread shock excitation induced by ongoing merger activity, IC 1623 and NGC 3256. We show the importance of carefully separating excitation due to shocks vs.

Characterizing the Molecular Gas in Infrared Bright Galaxies with CARMA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the CO(1–0) maps of 28 infrared-bright galaxies from the Great Observatories All-Sky Luminous Infrared Galaxy Survey (GOALS) taken with the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter Astronomy (CARMA).

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 ...

Infrared magnitude–redshift relations for luminous radio galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002
Infrared magnitude-redshift relations for the 3CR and 6C samples of radio galaxies are presented for a wide range of plausible cosmological models, including those with non-zero cosmological constant OmegaLambda. Variations in the galaxy formation redshift, metallicity and star formation history are also considered.

A JWST MIRI LRS Survey of 37 Massive Star-forming Galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei at Cosmic Noon: Overview and First Results

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a large spectroscopic survey with JWST’s Mid-Infrared Instrument Low Resolution Spectrometer (LRS) targeting 37 infrared-bright galaxies between z  = 0.65–2.46 with infrared luminosities $\mathrm{log}{L}_{{\rm{IR}}}/{L}_{\odot }\gt 11.5$ and $\
