PHANGS-JWST First Results: Massive Young Star Clusters and New Insights from JWST Observations of NGC 1365
Bradley C. Whitmore, Rupali Chandar, M. Jimena Rodríguez +28
A primary new capability of JWST is the ability to penetrate the dust in star forming galaxies to identify and study the properties of young star clusters that remain embedded in d…
A Panchromatic Study of Massive Stars in the Extremely Metal-Poor Local Group Dwarf Galaxy Leo A
Maude Gull, Daniel R. Weisz, Peter Senchyna +17
We characterize massive stars (M>8 M_sun) in the nearby (D~0.8 Mpc) extremely metal-poor (Z~5% Z_sun) galaxy Leo A using Hubble Space Telescope ultra-violet (UV), optical, and near…
NIRCam Performance on JWST In Flight
Marcia J. Rieke, Douglas M. Kelly, Karl Misselt +7
The Near Infrared Camera for the James Webb Space Telescope is delivering the imagery that astronomers have hoped for ever since JWST was proposed back in the 1990s. In the Commiss…
Polyakov's confinement mechanism for generalized Maxwell theory
Matthew Heydeman, Christian B. Jepsen, Ziming Ji +1
We study fractional-derivative Maxwell theory, as appears in effective descriptions of, for example, large QED, graphene, and some types of surface defects. We argue th…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: Stellar Feedback-Driven Excitation and Dissociation of Molecular Gas in the Starburst Ring of NGC 1365?
Daizhong Liu, Eva Schinnerer, Yixian Cao +36
We compare embedded young massive star clusters (YMCs) to (sub-)millimeter line observations tracing the excitation and dissociation of molecular gas in the starburst ring of NGC 1…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: Rapid Evolution of Star Formation in the Central Molecular Gas Ring of NGC1365
Eva Schinnerer, Eric Emsellem, Jonathan D. Henshaw +36
Large-scale bars can fuel galaxy centers with molecular gas, often leading to the development of dense ring-like structures where intense star formation occurs, forming a very diff…
