Luminous Infrared Galaxies in a Merging Sequence: ISO Observations [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
We report mid-infrared images of several luminous infrared galaxies (LIGs) taken with ISOCAM on the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). These LIGs were chosen to represent different phases of a merger sequence of galaxy-galaxy interaction with special emphasis on early/intermediate stages of merging.

JWST imaging of the closest globular clusters—I. Possible infrared excess among white dwarfs in NGC 6397

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 6-7, July-August 2024.
Abstract We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of the globular cluster NGC 6397 and use them to extend to infrared wavelengths the characterization of the cluster's entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS). The data allows us to probe fundamental astrophysical WD properties and to search for evidence in their colors for (or against ...

Not So Fast: A New Catalog of Meteor Persistent Trains

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 129, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract This paper presents the results of a nearly 2‐year long campaign to detect and analyze meteor persistent trains (PTs)—self‐emitting phenomena which can linger up to an hour after their parent meteor. The modern understanding of PTs has been primarily developed from the Leonid storms at the turn of the century; our goal was to assess the ...

The Arp 240 Galaxy Merger: A Detailed Look at the Molecular Kennicutt–Schmidt Star Formation Law on Subkiloparsec Scales

The Astrophysical Journal
The molecular Kennicutt–Schmidt Law has been key for understanding star formation (SF) in galaxies across all redshifts. However, recent subkiloparsec observations of nearby galaxies reveal deviations from the nearly unity slope ( N ) obtained with disk ...

The HST Large Programme on NGC 6752 ‐ V. Differences in luminosity and mass function among stellar populations

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 5, June 2024.
Abstract We exploit the astro‐photometric dataset of the multi‐epoch infrared parallel field of a Hubble Space Telescope Large Programme aimed at studying the faintest stars of the globular cluster NGC 6752 to determine the luminosity and mass functions of the multiple stellar populations of this cluster. Thanks to the measurement of proper motions and

Unveiling the Distant Universe: Characterizing z ≥ 9 Galaxies in the First Epoch of COSMOS-Web

The Astrophysical Journal
We report the identification of 15 galaxy candidates at z ≥ 9 using the initial COSMOS-Web JWST observations over 77 arcmin ^2 through four Near Infrared Camera filters (F115W, F150W, F277W, and F444W) with an overlap with the Mid-Infrared Imager (F770W)

The subarcsecond infrared structures at the centers of infrared-luminous galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal, 1990
This paper presents 1.6-2.2-micron imaging observations of the centers of nine galaxies with high 60-100-micron luminosities. Eight of the nine galaxies contain central 2.2-micron sources that are larger than the point spread function, which typically had a size (FWHM) of 1.0 arcsec. The typical physical size of the 2.2-micron sources is about 0.5 kpc.

Heavy Elements and Electromagnetic Transients from Neutron Star Mergers

Annalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.
Astro‐(physics) has made major leaps forward through the combined information provided by both gravitational waves and electromagnetic emission from the first detected neutron star merger event. This review provides an up‐to‐date overview of today's understanding of neutron star mergers and their electromagnetic emission and it discusses possible ...

HerS-3: An Exceptional Einstein Cross Reveals a Massive Dark Matter Halo

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a study of HerS-3, a dusty star-forming galaxy at z _spec  = 3.0607, which is gravitationally amplified into an Einstein cross with a fifth image of the background galaxy seen at the center of the cross.
