Uncovering the origin of complex velocity distributions in edge-on disc galaxies

Sophie Townson, Marie Martig, Robert J. J. Grand +3

Stellar line-of-sight velocity distributions are a powerful tool for studying galaxy kinematics and formation history, with multiple-peaked LOSVDs often indicating the presence of…

The GECKOS survey: Assembly history of the lenticular galaxy NGC 3957

Yuchen Ding, Marie Martig, Ling Zhu +24

We analyse the assembly history of the edge-on lenticular galaxy NGC 3957 using deep integral-field spectroscopic MUSE data from the GECKOS survey. By applying a dust-corrected Mul…

Detection of C Combination Bands in the Near-IR Spectrum of Tc 1

Morgan M. Giese, Vincent J. Esposito, Simon Van Schuylenbergh +26

We report the detection of a set of new near-infrared emission features between 3.5 and 5.2 m in JWST/NIRSpec observations of Tc 1, the planetary nebula known for displaying the…

Milky Way's warped disc traced by AGB stars

Tanya Kushwahaa, Mikako Matsuura, Jason A. S. Hunt +3

While the presence of the Galactic warp has long been established from observations of \HI\, gas, the \textit{Gaia} measurements of over 1 billion stars with parallaxes have enable…

GASTON-GP: Source catalogue and millimetre variability of massive protostellar objects

Ji-Xuan Zhou, Nicolas Peretto, A. J. Rigby +56

The processes governing protostellar mass growth remain debated, although episodic accretion is now understood as a key feature of protostellar evolution across all masses. Luminos…

Detection of CO ice in the planetary nebula NGC 6302

Charmi Bhatt, Simon W. Cao, Jan Cami +20

Using JWST/MIRI observations, we report the detection of CO ice in the dusty torus of the planetary nebula NGC 6302, an environment generally considered hostile to fragile mole…

WISDOM Project - XXVII. Giant molecular clouds of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1387: similarities with spiral galaxy clouds

Fu-Heng Liang, Martin Bureau, Lijie Liu +10

Molecular gas is crucial to understanding star formation and galaxy evolution, but the giant molecular clouds (GMCs) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) have rarely been studied. Here, w…

MAJORS II: HCO+& HCN Abundances in W40

René Plume, David J. Eden, Malcolm J. Currie +34

We present observations of HCN and HCO J = in the central region of the W40 massive star forming region. The observations were taken as part of a p…

Stirring Things Up: Bar-induced substructures in the stellar halo of a cosmological Milky Way analogue

Thomas Tomlinson, Francesca Fragkoudi, Andreia Carrillo +8

The stellar halo of the Milky Way contains the remnants of past accretion events, which could be detectable as substructures in the classical integrals of motion space, such as ene…

The influence of magnetic fields in Cloud-Cloud Collisions

Theotokis Georgatos, Anthony P. Whitworth

Cloud-cloud collisions are expected to trigger star formation by compressing gas into dense, gravitationally unstable regions. However, the role of magnetic fields in this process…

The contribution of stars, dust, neutral gas and supermassive black holes in galaxies to the cosmic baryon inventory

Jordan C. J. D'Silva, Simon P. Driver, Aaron S. G. Robotham +5

We compute the cosmic stellar, dust and neutral gas mass history at using ProSpect spectral energy distribution modelling of galaxies in the Gal…
