GOALS-JWST: Hidden Star Formation and Extended PAH Emission in the Luminous Infrared Galaxy VV 114

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) images of the luminous infrared (IR) galaxy VV 114 are presented. This redshift ∼0.020 merger has a western component (VV 114W) rich in optical star clusters and an eastern component (VV ...

Review of asteroid, meteor, and meteorite‐type links

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 928-973, April 2025.
Abstract With the goal to determine the origin of our meteorites in the asteroid belt, video and photographic observations of meteors have now tracked 75 meteorite falls. Six years ago, there were just hints that different meteorite types arrived on different orbits, but now, the number of orbits (N) is high enough for distinct patterns to emerge.

A Pair of Leading Spiral Arms in a Luminous Infrared Galaxy? [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2008
Leading spiral arms are a rare phenomenon. We present here one of the very few convincing candidates of spiral arms opening counter-intuitively in the same direction as the galaxy disk is rotating. This detection in a luminous IR galaxy (LIRG) IRAS 18293-3134 is based on near infrared (NIR) adaptive optics imaging with the Very Large Telescope and long-

Resolved CO(1–0) Emission and Gas Properties in Luminous Dusty Star-forming Galaxies at z = 2–4

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the results of a survey of CO(1−0) emission in 14 infrared luminous dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) at 2 < z < 4 with the NSF’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array.

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 2, February 2025.
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).

GOALS-JWST: Mid-infrared Molecular Gas Excitation Probes the Local Conditions of Nuclear Star Clusters and the Active Galactic Nucleus in the LIRG VV 114

The Astrophysical Journal
The enormous increase in mid-IR sensitivity and spatial and spectral resolution provided by the JWST spectrographs enables, for the first time, detailed extragalactic studies of molecular vibrational bands. This opens an entirely new window for the study

Accretion Onto Weakly Magnetized Neutron Stars: Polarization Theory and Its Application to X‐Ray Burster GX 13+1

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Observations show that the x‐ray emission of the accreting weakly magnetized neutron stars (WMNSs) is polarized. In this article, we summarize the analytical models for the polarized emission of various components of the WMNSs. We introduce a missing theoretical model, where we assume the emission comes from the spreading layer, the extension ...

Clusters, Clumps, Dust, and Gas (CCDG) in NGC 1614: Benchmarking Cluster Demographics in Extreme Systems

The Astronomical Journal
Observations of young star clusters in a variety of galaxies have been used to constrain basic properties related to star formation, such as the fraction of stars found in clusters (Γ) and the shape of the cluster mass function (CMF).

NICMOS Imaging of Infrared-Luminous Galaxies

The Astronomical Journal, 2000
We present near-infrared images obtained with the HST NICMOS camera for a sample of 9 luminous (LIGs: L_IR (8-1000 microns) >~ 10^11 L_sun) and 15 ultra-luminous (ULIGS: L_IR >~ 10^12 L_sun) infrared galaxies.
