Star Cluster Populations in 38 Spiral Galaxies: Evidence for Near-Universal Mass and Age Distributions from PHANGS
Rupali Chandar, Matthew R. Floyd, David A. Thilker +23
We present the largest study to date of star cluster mass and age distributions in nearby galaxies. The analysis is based on a uniformly selected catalog of over 15,000 (36,000) hu…
Quantifying the decline in CO(2-1) intensity around PHANGS-HST star clusters: Constraints on molecular gas dispersal, stellar feedback, and cluster formation efficiency
Hao He, Adam K. Leroy, Erik Rosolowsky +37
We combine the largest survey of star clusters in nearby galaxies to-date, PHANGS-HST, with maps of molecular gas maps from PHANGS-ALMA to constrain the efficiency of cluster forma…
pop-cosmos: Disentangling galaxy properties from observables using data-driven approaches
Benedict Van den Bussche, Sinan Deger, Hiranya V. Peiris +6
The physical processes that shape a galaxy's spectrum are strongly degenerate in observations, obscuring which processes act independently. Leveraging the pop-cosmos generative gal…
pop-cosmos: Galaxy size evolution across structural and star-formation classifications in COSMOS-Web
Madalina N. Tudorache, Hiranya V. Peiris, Stephen Thorp +7
Galaxy sizes are correlated with stellar mass and redshift, as characterised by size scaling relations. The inferred forms of these scaling relations are sensitive to how galaxies…
Thermostats, Not Engines: A New Picture of Halo Gas Regulation
Hiranya V. Peiris, Andrew Pontzen, Madalina N. Tudorache +5
We propose that black hole feedback regulates gas in massive halos by establishing an entropy ceiling; the resulting buoyant gas migrates to the virial radius with no additional en…
StAD: Stein Amortized Divergence for Fast Likelihoods with Diffusion and Flow
Gurjeet Jagwani, Stephen Thorp, Sinan Deger +1
Diffusion and flow-based models are ubiquitously used for generative modelling and density estimation. They admit a deterministic probability flow ordinary differential equation (P…
