Alignment of dense molecular core morphology and velocity gradients with ambient magnetic fields
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad2283 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.525..364P

Di Francesco, J.; Caselli, P.; Pineda, J. E. +15 more

Studies of dense core morphologies and their orientations with respect to gas flows and the local magnetic field have been limited to only a small sample of cores with spectroscopic data. Leveraging the Green Bank Ammonia Survey alongside existing sub-millimeter continuum observations and Planck dust polarization, we produce a cross-matched catalo…

Milky Way globular clusters on cosmological timescales. III. Interaction rates
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202346553 Bibcode: 2023A&A...678A..69I

Aims: We carry out the self-consistent dynamic evolution of the orbital structure of Milky Way globular clusters. This allows us to estimate possible and probable close passages and even collisions of the clusters with each other.
Methods: We reproduced the orbits of 147 globular clusters in 10 Gyr lookback time using our own high-order …

Chrono-chemodynamical analysis of the globular cluster NGC 6355: Looking for the fundamental bricks of the Bulge
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202245286 Bibcode: 2023A&A...671A..45S

Valentini, M.; Chiappini, C.; Bica, E. +7 more

The information on Galactic assembly time is imprinted on the chemodynamics of globular clusters. This makes them important probes that help us to understand the formation and evolution of the Milky Way. Discerning between in-situ and ex-situ origin of these objects is difficult when we study the Galactic bulge, which is the most complex and mixed…

Discovery of two promising isolated neutron star candidates in the SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202346375 Bibcode: 2023A&A...674A.155K

Haberl, F.; Buckley, D. A. H.; Pires, A. M. +2 more

We report the discovery of the isolated neutron star (INS) candidates eRASSU J065715.3+260428 and eRASSU J131716.9−402647 from the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) eROSITA All-Sky Survey. Selected for their soft X-ray emission and absence of catalogued counterparts, both objects were recently targeted with the La…

The discovery of three hot Jupiters, NGTS-23b, 24b, and 25b, and updated parameters for HATS-54b from the Next Generation Transit Survey
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stac3192 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.518.4845J

de Mooij, Ernst J. W.; Jackman, James A. G.; Wheatley, Peter J. +35 more

We report the discovery of three new hot Jupiters with the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) as well as updated parameters for HATS-54b, which was independently discovered by NGTS. NGTS-23b, NGTS-24b, and NGTS-25b have orbital periods of 4.076, 3.468, and 2.823 d and orbit G-, F-, and K-type stars, respectively. NGTS-24 and HATS-54 appear clos…

Obscuring Environment and X-Ray Variability of Compact Symmetric Objects Unveiled with XMM-Newton and NuSTAR
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/acbb6c Bibcode: 2023ApJ...948...81S

Ostorero, Luisa; Guainazzi, Matteo; Stawarz, Łukasz +3 more

Compact symmetric objects (CSOs) show radio features such as jets, lobes, and hot spots, which are contained within their host galaxies, and likely represent a recent radio activity. A subpopulation of CSOs with high intrinsic X-ray column densities has been inferred from shallow, soft X-ray band exposures, and observed to cluster in the linear ra…

Radio detections of two unusual cataclysmic variables in the VLA Sky Survey
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad038 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.519.5922R

Heinke, C. O.; Sivakoff, G. R.; Hughes, A. K. +1 more

We report two new radio detections of cataclysmic variables (CVs), and place them in context with radio and X-ray detections of other CVs. We detected QS Vir, a low accretion-rate CV; V2400 Oph, a discless intermediate polar; and recovered the polar AM Her in the Very Large Array Sky Survey 2-4 GHz radio images. The radio luminosities of these sys…

Different higher order kinematics between star-forming and quiescent galaxies based on the SAMI, MAGPI, and LEGA-C surveys
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stac3536 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.525.2765D

Bell, Eric F.; Übler, Hannah; D'Eugenio, Francesco +38 more

We present the first statistical study of spatially integrated non-Gaussian stellar kinematics spanning 7 Gyr in cosmic time. We use deep, rest-frame optical spectroscopy of massive galaxies (stellar mass $M_\star \gt 10^{10.5} \, \mathrm{M_\odot }$) at redshifts z = 0.05, 0.3, and 0.8 from the SAMI, MAGPI, and LEGA-C surveys, to measure the exces…

M92 (NGC 6341) Is a Metal-complex Globular Cluster with an Atypical Primordial Population
DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/acd05a Bibcode: 2023ApJ...948L..16L

Lee, Jae-Woo

We present a multiple stellar population study of the metal-poor globular cluster (GC) M92 (NGC 6341), which is long known for the substantial metallicity dispersion, using our own photometric system. We find two groups with slightly different mean metallicities, the metal-poor (MP) stars with [Fe/H] hk = -2.412 ± 0.03 and the metal-ri…

Barger, A. J.; Cowie, L. L.

We use JWST NIRCam observations of the massive lensing cluster field A2744 to develop a red galaxy selection of f F444W > 1 µJy and f F444W/f F150W > 3.5 that picks out all nine >4.5σ Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array 1.1 or 1.2 mm sources and 17 of the 19 >5σ SCUBA-2 850 µm sourc…
