Lensing in the Blue IV: The First Weak Gravitational Lensing Maps from the Stratosphere

Sayan Saha, Maya Amit, Jacqueline E. McCleary +42

The Super-Pressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope (SuperBIT) completed its science flight in April 2023, obtaining imaging data for 30 galaxy clusters. In this work, we present th…

Multi-epoch Detection of an Ultra-fast Inflow in ESP 39607: Evidence for an Accretion Cascade

Alessandro Peca, Michael J. Koss, Roberto Serafinelli +10

We present simultaneous XRISM, XMM-Newton, and NuSTAR observations of ESP 39607, a Seyfert 2 galaxy at . XRISM/Resolve reveals two absorption features near 4.7 and 4.9 k…

AGN-DB: A Unified Multi-Wavelength Database of Active Galactic Nuclei

Alessandro Peca, Nico Cappelluti, C. Megan Urry +29

We present the Active Galactic Nuclei Database (AGN-DB), a comprehensive, multi-wavelength catalog compiled from more than 100 publicly available AGN catalogs and samples released…

Multi-sensor fusion for fine-guidance and milliarcsecond-level attitude estimation of balloon-borne telescope

Philippe Voyer, Maya Amit, Steven J. Benton +44

Balloon-borne telescopes rely on fine-guidance systems to achieve milliarcsecond image stability despite residual disturbances from the balloon environment. In these systems, the F…

Lensing-Reconstructed Dark Matter-Intracluster Medium Coherence as a Probe of Cluster Dynamical State: Application to HSTFF, RELICS, and CLASH Clusters

Giulia Cerini, Sayan Saha, Jacqueline McCleary +13

We present the first application of Fourier-space coherence analysis between the lensing-reconstructed projected mass distribution and the X-ray-emitting intracluster medium to a s…

Revisiting Galaxy Cluster Scaling Relations through Dark Matter-Gas Coherence: Scatter Dependence on Dynamical State

Giulia Cerini, Elena Bellomi, Nico Cappelluti +4

Galaxy clusters, the most massive, dark-matter-dominated, and most recently assembled structures in the Universe, are key tools for probing cosmology. However, uncertainties in sca…

NuSTAR Detection of an Absorption Feature in ESP 39607: Evidence for an Ultra-Fast Inflow?

Alessandro Peca, Michael J. Koss, Roberto Serafinelli +4

We report the serendipitous discovery of an absorption feature at 4.8 keV in the NuSTAR spectra of ESP 39607, a Seyfert 2 galaxy at , observed in May 2023 and August 202…

Tracing High-z Galaxies in X-rays with JWST and Chandra

A. Kaminsky, N. Cappelluti, G. Hasinger +14

We leverage JWST data from the COSMOS-Web Survey in order to provide updated measurements on the auto-power spectrum of the now resolved Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB) and its co…

Evidence of X-ray emission from the Warm Hot Intergalactic Medium

Giulia Cerini, Nico Cappelluti, Massimiliano Galeazzi +1

The Universe has evolved from an initial diffuse, uniform gas to a complex structure that includes both voids and high-density galaxy clusters connected by gaseous filaments, known…

New metrics to probe the dynamical state of galaxy clusters

Giulia Cerini, Nico Cappelluti, Priyamvada Natarajan

We present new diagnostic metrics to probe the dynamical state of galaxy clusters. These novel metrics rely on the computation of the power spectra of the matter and gas distributi…
