Willman 1 Revisited: The Kinematics, Chemistry, and Orbital Properties of a Potentially-Disrupting Dwarf Galaxy
Camille Chiu, Marla Geha, William Cerny +4
The ultra-faint Milky Way satellite Willman 1 (W1; ; pc) was the first stellar over-density found via resolved stars in the Sloan Digital Sky Surv…
Constraints on asteroid-mass primordial black holes in dwarf galaxies using Hubble Space Telescope photometry
Nicolas Esser, Carrie Filion, Sven De Rijcke +4
Primordial black holes (PBHs) in the asteroid-mass range remain a viable and until now unconstrained dark matter (DM) candidate. If such PBHs exist, they could be captured by stars…
Understanding Stellar Mass-Metallicity and Size Relations in Simulated Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies
Minsung Go, Myoungwon Jeon, Yumi Choi +7
Reproducing the physical characteristics of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) in cosmological simulations is challenging, particularly with respect to stellar metallicity and galax…
The JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science Program VII. Stress Testing the NIRCam Exposure Time Calculator
A. Savino, M. Gennaro, A. E. Dolphin +19
We empirically assess estimates from v3.0 of the JWST NIRCam Exposure Time Calculator (ETC) using observations of resolved stars in Local Group targets taken as part of the Resolve…
The Low-Mass Stellar Initial Mass Function in Nearby Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxies
Carrie Filion, Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Hannah Richstein +3
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) describes the distribution of stellar masses that form in a given star formation event. The long main-sequence lifetimes of low-mass stars m…
Deep Hubble Space Telescope Photometry of LMC and Milky Way Ultra-Faint Dwarfs: A careful look into the magnitude-size relation
Hannah Richstein, Nitya Kallivayalil, Joshua D. Simon +16
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry of ten targets from Treasury Program GO-14734, including six confirmed ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs), three UFD candidat…
