The influence of the cluster environment on the star formation efficiency of 12 Virgo spiral galaxies [PDF]
The influence of the environment on gas surface density and star formation efficiency of cluster spiral galaxies is investigated. We extend previous work on radial profiles by a pixel-to pixel analysis looking for asymmetries due to environmental ...

Morphology and Density Structure of Post-CME Current Sheets [PDF]
Context. Eruption of a coronal mass ejection (CME) drags and “opens” the coronal magnetic field, presumably leading to the formation of a large-scale current sheet and field relaxation by magnetic reconnection. Aims.

In-orbit Performance of the Near-infrared Spectrograph NIRSpec on the James Webb Space Telescope [PDF]
The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) is one of the four focal plane instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope. In this paper, we summarize the in-orbit performance of NIRSpec, as derived from data collected during its commissioning campaign and ...

Ram pressure stripping of the multiphase ISM and star formation in the Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4330 [PDF]
It has been shown that the Virgo spiral galaxy NGC 4330 shows signs of ongoing ram pressure stripping in multiple wavelengths: at the leading edge of the interaction, the Halpha and dust extinction curve sharply out of the disk; on the trailing side, a ...

STELLA—Potential European contributions to a NASA-led interstellar probe
The discovery of a myriad of exoplanets in the past decades has revolutionized the understanding of our place in the Universe. How different are exoplants and do some of them harbor life, just like Earth? To do so, their parent stars must drive a stellar
