The Stability of Low Surface Brightness Disks Based on Multi-Wavelength Modeling
John M. MacLachlan, Lynn D. Matthews, Kenneth Wood +1
To investigate the structure and composition of the dusty interstellar medium (ISM) of low surface brightness (LSB) disk galaxies, we have used multiwavelength photometry to constr…
2-D and 3-D Radiation Transfer Models of High-Mass Star Formation
Barbara A. Whitney, Thomas P. Robitaille, Remy Indebetouw +3
2-D and 3-D radiation transfer models of forming stars generally produce bluer 1-10 micron colors than 1-D models of the same evolutionary state and envelope mass. Therefore, 1-D m…
Modelling the Interstellar Medium of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies: Constraining Internal Extinction, Disk Color Gradients, and Intrinsic Rotation Curve Shapes
L. D. Matthews, Kenneth Wood
We use a combination of three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer techniques and multi-wavelength (BRHK,H alpha) imaging data to investigate the nature of the interstellar m…
JWST MIRI and NIRCam observations of NGC 891 and its circumgalactic medium
Jérémy Chastenet, Ilse De Looze, Monica Relaño +37
We present new JWST observations of the nearby, prototypical edge-on, spiral galaxy NGC 891. The northern half of the disk was observed with NIRCam in its F150W and F277W filters.…
Resonant Scattering of Emission Lines in Coronal Loops: Effects on Image Morphology and Line Ratios
Kenneth Wood, John Raymond
We have investigated the effects of resonant scattering of emission lines on the image morphology and intensity from coronal loop structures. It has previously been shown that line…
Radiation hydrodynamic simulations of massive star formation via gravitationally trapped HII regions - Spherically symmetric ionised accretion flows
Kristin Lund, Kenneth Wood, Diego Falceta-Gonçalves +5
This paper investigates the gravitational trapping of HII regions predicted by steady-state analysis using radiation hydrodynamical simulations. We present idealised spherically sy…
