Semiresolved Stellar Populations as Distance Indicators

Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Patricia Iglesias Navarro, Francesco La Barbera +13

Galaxy distances are central to our understanding of the Universe. Despite the success of existing approaches, independent and complementary methods remain valuable for testing sys…

Hector Galaxy Survey: Linking the low- and high-mass ends of the initial mass function in star-forming galaxies

Diego Salvador, Andrew Hopkins, Matt Owers +30

The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is a fundamental ingredient in galaxy evolution, linking observed integrated light to galaxy properties. Constraining the full IMF shape bey…

Limited imprint of high-mass IMF variations on sodium abundances in main-sequence galaxies

Ziyi Guo, Donatella Romano, Zhiqiang Yan +10

Growing evidence suggests that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) varies systematically across galaxies, deviating from the canonical Milky Way form. Such variations would mod…

FASTAR -- II. Semi-resolved evolutionary stellar population models

Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Alexandre Vazdekis, Luis Peralta de Arriba +12

Standard evolutionary synthesis models rely on the assumption of a fully sampled stellar initial mass function (IMF). Under this assumption, the age, chemical composition, and IMF…

FASTAR -- I. Continuous and differentiable evolutionary stellar population models

Ignacio Martín-Navarro, Alexandre Vazdekis, Luis Peralta de Arriba +11

The development of evolutionary stellar population models is central to interpreting observations of galaxies in terms of astrophysical quantities. Stellar population models must t…

Constraining the Galactic bar and spiral pattern speeds with the Hyades tidal stream

Zi-yi Zhou, Long Wang, Tereza Jerabkova +1

We present a suite of direct -body simulations of the Hyades open cluster and its tidal stream in a Milky Way potential that includes a rotating bar and spiral arms. Using the h…
