Exploring the synergies of with MUSE spectroscopy in PHANGS H II regions
Eric Habjan, Kathryn Kreckel, Christopher Faesi +16
Spatially resolved maps of gas-phase metallicity provide key constraints on the chemical enrichment and mixing processes that drive galaxy evolution, but measurements based only on…
Toward Unbiased Abundance Measurements in Inhomogeneous Regions
Eric Habjan, Christopher Faesi, Kathryn Kreckel +10
Probing the chemical content of the interstellar medium (ISM) in nearby galaxies provides key insight into their chemical evolution and informs our interpretation of galaxies at hi…
A steep mass transition for bar-driven ISM structuring revealed by PHANGS-JWST
Eric Emsellem, Jessica Sutter, Ryan Chown +26
Galactic bars play a critical role in the secular evolution of their hosts by reorganising the ISM. We use a sample of 57 star-forming disc galaxies observed with JWST at 3 and 7.7…
Multi-Thermal CME Detection with ALMANAC
Thomas Williams, Christopher B. Prior, David MacTaggart +1
Reliable identification of low-coronal CME origins remains a key limitation in space weather forecasting with coronagraphs not directly resolving low-coronal signatures. We present…
