Early Results from GLASS-JWST. XI. Stellar Masses and Mass-to-light Ratio of z > 7 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We exploit James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRCam observations from the GLASS-JWST-Early Release Science program to investigate galaxy stellar masses at z > 7.

Microlensing and the Stellar Mass Function [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996
Traditional approaches to measuring the stellar mass function (MF) are fundamentally limited because objects are detected based on their luminosity, not their mass. These methods are thereby restricted to luminous and relatively nearby stellar populations. Gravitational microlensing promises to revolutionize our understanding of the MF.

The Independency of Stellar Mass Loss Rates on stellar X-ray Luminosity and Activity Level based on Solar X-ray flux and Solar Wind Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Stellar mass loss rates are an important input ingredient for stellar evolution models since they determine stellar evolution parameters such as stellar spin-down and increase in stellar luminosity through the lifetime of a star. Due to the lack of direct observations of stellar winds from Sun-like stars stellar X-ray luminosity and stellar level of ...

HSC-XXL : Baryon budget of the 136 XXL Groups and Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We present our determination of the baryon budget for an X-ray-selected XXL sample of 136 galaxy groups and clusters spanning nearly two orders of magnitude in mass ($M_{500}\sim 10^{13}-10^{15}M_\odot$) and the redshift range $0< z < 1$. Our joint analysis is based on the combination of HSC-SSP weak-lensing mass measurements, XXL X-ray gas mass ...

What Is the Role of Stellar Radiative Feedback in Setting the Stellar Mass Spectrum? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2020
Abstract In spite of decades of theoretical efforts, the physical origin of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is still debated. Particularly crucial is the question of what sets the peak of the distribution. To investigate this issue, we perform high-resolution numerical simulations with radiative feedback exploring, in particular,

Stellar atmospheres, atmospheric extension and fundamental parameters: weighing stars using the stellar mass index [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One of the great challenges in understanding stars is measuring their masses. The best methods for measuring stellar masses include binary interaction, asteroseismology and stellar evolution models, but these methods are not ideal for red giant and supergiant stars.

Weak Lensing Reveals a Tight Connection Between Dark Matter Halo Mass and the Distribution of Stellar Mass in Massive Galaxies

open access: yes, 2018
Using deep images from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey and taking advantage of its unprecedented weak lensing capabilities, we reveal a remarkably tight connection between the stellar mass distribution of massive central galaxies and their host dark ...

Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA): Stellar-to-dynamical Mass Relation. I. Constraining the Precision of Stellar Mass Estimates

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In this empirical work, we aim to quantify the systematic uncertainties in stellar-mass ( M _⋆ ) estimates made from spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting through stellar population synthesis (SPS) for galaxies in the local Universe by using the ...
