The orbital kinematics of eta Carinae over three periastra with a possible detection of the elusive secondary's motion
Emily Strawn, Noel D. Richardson, Anthony F. J. Moffat +14
The binary eta Carinae is the closest example of a very massive star, which may have formed through a merger during its Great Eruption in the mid-nineteenth century. We aimed to co…
Broad emission lines in optical spectra of hot dust-obscured galaxies can contribute significantly to JWST/NIRCam photometry
Jed McKinney, Luke Finnerty, Caitlin Casey +13
Selecting the first galaxies at z>7-10 from JWST surveys is complicated by z<6 contaminants with degenerate photometry. For example, strong optical nebular emission lines at z<6 ma…
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…
PHANGS-JWST First Results: A Global and Moderately Resolved View of Mid-Infrared and CO Line Emission from Galaxies at the Start of the JWST Era
Adam K. Leroy, Alberto D. Bolatto, Karin Sandstrom +41
We explore the relationship between mid-infrared (mid-IR) and CO rotational line emission from massive star-forming galaxies, which is one of the tightest scalings in the local uni…
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…
