A 7 Day Multiwavelength Flare Campaign on AU Mic. I. High-time-resolution Light Curves and the Thermal Empirical Neupert Effect
Notsu, Yuta; Kowalski, Adam F.; Tristan, Isaiah I. +13 more
We present light curves and flares from a 7 day, multiwavelength observational campaign of AU Mic, a young and active dM1e star with exoplanets and a debris disk. We report on 73 unique flares between the X-ray to optical data. We use high-time-resolution near-UV (NUV) photometry and soft X-ray (SXR) data from the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission to stu…
Multiple Stellar Populations in Metal-poor Globular Clusters with JWST: A NIRCam View of M92
Vesperini, Enrico; Lagioia, Edoardo P.; Marino, Anna F. +10 more
Recent work on metal-intermediate globular clusters (GCs) with [Fe/H] = -1.5 and -0.75 has illustrated the theoretical behavior of multiple populations in photometric diagrams obtained with the JWST. These results are confirmed by observations of multiple populations among the M dwarfs of 47 Tucanae. Here we explore multiple populations in metal-p…
Panchromatic HST/WFC3 Imaging Studies of Young, Rapidly Evolving Planetary Nebulae. II. NGC 7027
Montez, Rodolfo; Balick, Bruce; Kastner, Joel H. +2 more
The iconic planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7027 is bright, nearby (D ~ 1 kpc), highly ionized, intricately structured, and well observed. This nebula is hence an ideal case study for understanding PN shaping and evolution processes. Accordingly, we have conducted a comprehensive imaging survey of NGC 7027 comprised of 12 HST Wide Field Camera 3 images i…
Hot Subdwarf Stars Identified in LAMOST DR8 with Single-lined and Composite Spectra
Németh, Péter; Zhao, Jingkun; Hu, Ke +6 more
A total of 222 hot subdwarf stars were identified with LAMOST DR8 spectra, among which 131 stars show composite spectra and have been decomposed, while 91 stars present single-lined spectra. Atmospheric parameters of all sample stars were obtained by fitting hydrogen (H) and helium (He) line profiles with synthetic spectra. Two long-period composi…
Digging into the Galactic Bulge: Stellar Population and Structure of the Poorly Studied Cluster NGC 6316
Cadelano, Mario; Pallanca, Cristina; Ferraro, Francesco R. +2 more
High-resolution Hubble Space Telescope optical observations have been used to analyze the stellar population and the structure of the poorly investigated bulge globular cluster NGC 6316. We constructed the first high-resolution reddening map in the cluster direction, which allowed us to correct the evolutionary sequences in the color-magnitude dia…
ODIN: Where Do Lyα Blobs Live? Contextualizing Blob Environments within Large-scale Structure
Dey, Arjun; Gronwall, Caryl; Jeong, Woong-Seob +16 more
While many Lyα blobs (LABs) are found in and around several well-known protoclusters at high redshift, how they trace the underlying large-scale structure is still poorly understood. In this work, we utilize 5352 Lyα emitters (LAEs) and 129 LABs at z = 3.1 identified over a ~9.5 deg2 area in early data from the ongoing One-hundred-deg
Production of 44Ti and Iron-group Nuclei in the Ejecta of 3D Neutrino-driven Supernovae
Sieverding, Andre; Kresse, Daniel; Janka, Hans-Thomas
The radioactive isotopes 44Ti and 56Ni are important products of explosive nucleosynthesis, which play a key role in supernova (SN) diagnostics and have been detected in several nearby young SN remnants. However, most SN models based on nonrotating single stars predict yields of 44Ti that are much lower than the va…
The Relationship between Age, Metallicity, and Abundances for Disk Stars in a Simulated Milky Way
Ness, Melissa K.; Hawkins, Keith; Wetzel, Andrew +4 more
Observations of the Milky Way's low-α disk show that several element abundances correlate with age at fixed metallicity, with unique slopes and small scatters around the age-[X/Fe] relations. In this study, we turn to simulations to explore the age-[X/Fe] relations for the elements C, N, O, Mg, Si, S, and Ca that are traced in a FIRE-2 cosmologica…
oMEGACat. I. MUSE Spectroscopy of 300,000 Stars within the Half-light Radius of ω Centauri
Dreizler, S.; Milone, A. P.; Latour, M. +17 more
Omega Centauri (ω Cen) is the most massive globular cluster of the Milky Way and has been the focus of many studies that reveal the complexity of its stellar populations and kinematics. However, most previous studies have used photometric and spectroscopic data sets with limited spatial or magnitude coverage, while we aim to investigate it having …
Substructures in Compact Disks of the Taurus Star-forming Region
Zhang, Ke; Bergin, Edwin A.; Long, Feng +5 more
Observations of substructure in protoplanetary disks have largely been limited to the brightest and largest disks, excluding the abundant population of compact disks, which are likely sites of planet formation. Here, we reanalyze ~0.″1, 1.33 mm Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) continuum observations of 12 compact protoplanetary …
