Dust stripping in cluster galaxies: a PRIMA perspective
Alessandro Boselli, Marc Sauvage, Laure Ciesla
The evolution of galaxies in rich environments such as clusters and groups can be significantly perturbed during their interaction with nearby companions (tidal interactions) or wi…
The Far-Infrared Enhanced Survey Spectrometer (FIRESS) for PRIMA: Science Drivers
Klaus M. Pontoppidan, Alberto Bolatto, J D Smith +25
We present the science drivers for the Far-Infrared Enhanced Survey Spectrometer (FIRESS), one of two science instrument on the PRobe Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA). FIR…
PRIMA: PRIMAger, a far-infrared hyperspectral and polarimetric instrument
Laure Ciesla, Charles Darren Dowell, Marc Sauvage +27
The PRobe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) is an infrared observatory for the next decade, currently in Phase A, with a 1.8m telescope actively cooled to 4.5K. On boar…
The PRIMA promise of deciphering interstellar dust evolution with observations of the nearby Universe
Frédéric Galliano, Maarten Baes, Léo Belloir +25
This paper develops a few science cases, using the PRIMA far-IR probe, aimed at achieving several breakthroughs in our understanding of the dust properties and their evolution. We…
Simulation of the Far-Infrared Polarimetry Approach Envisioned for the PRIMA Mission
C. Darren Dowell, Brandon S. Hensley, Marc Sauvage
Interest in the study of magnetic fields and the properties of interstellar dust, explored through increasingly capable far-IR/submillimeter polarimetry, along with maturing detect…
B-BOP, the SPICA Imaging Polarimeter
Vincent Revéret, Marc Sauvage, Obaïd Adami +28
We present the B-BOP instrument, a polarimetric camera on board the future ESA-JAXA SPICA far-infrared space observatory. B-BOP will allow the study of the magnetic field in variou…
Euclid space mission: a cosmological challenge for the next 15 years
R. Scaramella, Y. Mellier, J. Amiaux +33
Euclid is the next ESA mission devoted to cosmology. It aims at observing most of the extragalactic sky, studying both gravitational lensing and clustering over 15,000 square…
Star-formation rates from young-star counts and the structure of the ISM across the NGC346/N66 complex in the SMC
S. Hony, D. A. Gouliermis, F. Galliano +21
The rate at which interstellar gas is converted into stars, and its dependence on environment, is one of the pillars on which our understanding of the visible Universe is build. We…
ALMA observations of cool dust in a low-metallicity starburst, SBS0335-052
L. K. Hunt, L. Testi, V. Casasola +9
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Cycle 0 Band 7 observations of an extremely metal-poor dwarf starburst galaxy in the Local Universe, SBS0335-052 (12+…
Physical conditions in the gas phases of the giant HII region LMC-N11 unveiled by Herschel - I. Diffuse [CII] and [OIII] emission in LMC-N11B
V. Lebouteiller, D. Cormier, S. C. Madden +10
(Abridged) The Magellanic Clouds provide a nearby laboratory for metal-poor dwarf galaxies. The low dust abundance enhances the penetration of UV photons into the interstellar medi…
Integral field spectroscopy in the near infrared of NGC 3125-A and SBS 0335-052
