Protostars at Subsolar Metallicity: First Detection of Large Solid-state Complex Organic Molecules in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Marta Sewiło, Will R. M. Rocha, Martijn van Gelder +11
We present the results of James Webb Space Telescope observations of the protostar ST6 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Medium Resolution Spectrograph of the Mid-Infrar…
The Lyman alpha Sky as Observed by New Horizons
G. R. Gladstone, J. M. Shull, W. R. Pryor +22
During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of…
A deep search for large complex organic species toward IRAS16293-2422 B at 3 mm with ALMA
P. Nazari, J. S. Y. Cheung, J. Ferrer Asensio +14
Complex organic molecules (COMs) have been detected ubiquitously in protostellar systems. However, at shorter wavelengths (~0.8mm) it is more difficult to detect larger molecules t…
Interstellar Conditions Deduced from Interstellar Neutral Helium Observed by IBEX and Global Heliosphere Modeling
P. Swaczyna, M. Bzowski, J. Heerikhuisen +8
In situ observations of interstellar neutral (ISN) helium atoms by the IBEX-Lo instrument onboard the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission are used to determine the veloci…
An Ice Age JWST inventory of dense molecular cloud ices
M. K. McClure, W. R. M. Rocha, K. M. Pontoppidan +39
Icy grain mantles are the main reservoir of the volatile elements that link chemical processes in dark, interstellar clouds with the formation of planets and composition of their a…
Anomalous Flux in the Cosmic Optical Background Detected With New Horizons Observations
Tod R. Lauer, Marc Postman, John R. Spencer +27
We used New Horizons LORRI images to measure the optical-band () sky brightness within a high galactic-latitude field selected to have reduced diffu…
New Horizons Observations of the Cosmic Optical Background
Tod R. Lauer, Marc Postman, Harold A. Weaver +26
We used existing data from the New Horizons LORRI camera to measure the optical-band () sky brightness within seven high galactic latitude fields. T…
Ionized Gas in the NGC 5253 Supernebula:High Spatial and Spectral Resolution Observations with the JVLA and TEXES
Sara C. Beck, John Lacy, Jean Turner +4
The youngest, closest and most compact embedded massive star cluster known excites the supernebula in the nearby dwarf galaxy NGC 5253. It is a crucial target and test case for stu…
ALMA and ROSINA detections of phosphorus-bearing molecules: the interstellar thread between star-forming regions and comets
V. M. Rivilla, M. N. Drozdovskaya, K. Altwegg +11
To understand how Phosphorus-bearing molecules are formed in star-forming regions, we have analysed ALMA observations of PN and PO towards the massive star-forming region AFGL 5142…
The Runaways and Isolated O-Type Star Spectroscopic Survey of the SMC (RIOTS4)
J. B. Lamb, M. S. Oey, D. M. Segura-Cox +4
We present the Runaways and Isolated O-Type Star Spectroscopic Survey of the SMC (RIOTS4), a spatially complete survey of uniformly selected field OB stars that covers the entire s…
Charting the Interstellar Magnetic Field causing the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) Ribbon of Energetic Neutral Atoms
P. C. Frisch, A. Berdyugin, V. Piirola +10
The interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) near the heliosphere is a basic part of the solar neighborhood that can only be studied using polarized starlight. Results of an ongoing surv…
Ionized Gas Kinematics at High Resolution V: [NeII], Multiple Clusters, High Efficiency Star Formation and Blue Flows in He 2-10
Sara C. Beck, Jean L. Turner, John Lacy +1
We measured the m [NeII] line in the dwarf starburst galaxy He 2-10 with the high-resolution spectrometer TeXeS on the NASA IRTF. The data cube has diffraction-limited spati…
Evidence for an interstellar dust filament in the outer heliosheath
P. C. Frisch, B-G Andersson, A. Berdyugin +8
A recently discovered filament of polarized starlight that traces a coherent magnetic field is shown to have several properties that are consistent with an origin in the outer heli…
Correcting the record on the analysis of IBEX and STEREO data regarding variations in the neutral interstellar wind
P. C. Frisch, M. Bzowski, C. Drews +6
The journey of the Sun through space carries the solar system through a dynamic interstellar environment that is presently characterized by Mach 1 motion between the heliosphere an…
Connecting the interstellar magnetic field at the heliosphere to the Loop I superbubble
P. C. Frisch, A. Berdyugin, H. O. Funsten +6
The local interstellar magnetic field affects both the heliosphere and the surrounding cluster of interstellar clouds (CLIC). Measurements of linearly polarized starlight provide t…
Ionized Gas Kinematics at High Resolution IV: Star Formation and a Rotating Core in the Medusa (NGC 4194)
Sara C. Beck, John Lacy, Jean Turner +2
NGC 4194 is a post-merger starburst known as The Medusa for its striking tidal features. We present here a detailed study of the structure and kinematics of ionized gas in the cent…
Direct Measurement of Interstellar Extinction Toward Young Stars Using Atomic Hydrogen Lyman- Absorption
Matthew McJunkin, Kevin France, P. C. Schneider +5
