JWST Observations of Starbursts: PAHs Closely Trace the Cool Phase of M82's Galactic Wind
Sebastian Lopez, Colton Ring, Adam K. Leroy +30
Stellar feedback drives multiphase gas outflows from starburst galaxies, but the interpretation of dust emission in these winds remains uncertain. To investigate this, we analyze n…
First detection of ices in intermediate-mass young stellar objects beyond the Milky Way

Investigating the metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rate relation of red supergiants
K. Antoniadis, E. Zapartas, A. Z. Bonanos +8
Red supergiants (RSGs) are cool and evolved massive stars exhibiting enhanced mass loss compared to their main sequence phase, affecting their evolution and fate. However, the theo…
