What We Have Learned from NICER About Neutron Star Radii
M. C. Miller
The cores of neutron stars have a combination of density, temperature, and neutron-proton asymmetry that cannot be replicated in laboratories or understood using first-principles q…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: Dust Processing in the M82 Superwind
Serena A. Cronin, Alberto D. Bolatto, Helena M. Richie +39
We present JWST MIRI and NIRCam imaging of the inner ~5 kpc of the M82 superwind at 0.05-0.375'' (~0.9-6.5 pc) resolution. Targeted filters probe emission from polycyclic aromatic…
Nowhere Left to Hide: Uncovering All of the Massive Young Embedded Star Clusters in the Antennae with JWST
Rupali Chandar, Miranda Caputo, Paul Goudfrooij +15
The Antennae galaxies merger produces the brightest infrared emission of any galaxy within ~20 Mpc, mostly from intense star formation taking place in supergiant molecular cloud co…
Can tidal disruption event models reliably measure black hole masses?
C. R. Angus, A. J. Smith, D. Magill +15
Tidal disruption event (TDE) light curves are increasingly used to infer the masses of quiescent supermassive black holes (), offering a powerful probe of low-mass bla…
AT2024wpp: An Extremely Luminous Fast Ultraviolet Transient Powered by Accretion onto a Black Hole
Daniel A. Perley, Anna Y. Q. Ho, Zoë McGrath +69
We present the discovery of AT 2024wpp ("Whippet"), a fast and luminous 18cow-like transient. At a redshift of z=0.0868, revealed by Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectroscopy of its fain…
High-energy Emission from Turbulent Electron-ion Coronae of Accreting Black Holes
Daniel Groselj, Alexander Philippov, Andrei M. Beloborodov +1
We develop a model of particle energization and emission from strongly turbulent black-hole coronae. Our local model is based on a set of 2D radiative particle-in-cell simulations…
