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

Hubble Ultra Deep Field-JD2: Mid-Infrared Evidence for a z ~ 2 Luminous Infrared Galaxy [PDF]
The Hubble Ultra Deep Field source JD2 presented in Mobasher et al. is an unusual galaxy that is very faint at all wavelengths shortward of 1.1 μm. Photometric redshift fits to data between 0.4 and 8 μm yield a significant probability that it is an ...

Unveiling the Distant Universe: Characterizing z ≥ 9 Galaxies in the First Epoch of COSMOS-Web
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 essential signature of a massive starburst in a distant galaxy
Observations of carbon monoxide (CO) emission in high redshift (z>2) galaxies indicate the presence of large amounts of molecular gas. Many of these galaxies contain an active galactic nucleus (AGN) powered by accretion of gas onto a supermassive black ...

Adaptive optics imaging and optical spectroscopy of a multiple merger in a luminous infrared galaxy [PDF]
We present near-infrared (NIR) adaptive optics imaging obtained with VLT/NACO and optical spectroscopy from the Southern African Large Telescope of a luminous IR galaxy (LIRG) IRAS 19115-2124.

On the Very Bright Dropouts Selected Using the James Webb Space Telescope NIRCam Instrument
The selection of candidate high-redshift galaxies using the dropout technique targeting the Lyman-break signature sometimes yields very bright objects that are too luminous to be easily explained if they are indeed at the expected redshifts.

Luminosities of Barred and Unbarred S0 Galaxies
Lenticular galaxies with M_B < -21.5 are almost exclusively unbarred, whereas both barred and unbarred objects occur at fainter luminosity levels. This effect is observed both for objects classified in blue light, and for those that were classified in ...

A multiwavelength approach to the SFR estimation in galaxies at intermediate redshifts [PDF]
We use a sample of 7 starburst galaxies at intermediate redshifts (z ~ 0.4 and z ~ 0.8) with observations ranging from the observed ultraviolet to 1.4 GHz, to compare the star formation rate (SFR) estimators which are used in the different wavelength ...

Quantification of the Age Dependence of Mid-infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
We combine James Webb Space Telescope images of the nearby galaxy NGC 5194 in the hydrogen recombination line Pa α (1.8756 μ m) from the Cycle 1 program JWST-FEAST with 21 μ m dust continuum images from the Cycle 2 Treasury program JWGT to quantify the ...
