Mature but Still Growing: JWST Detection of the Earliest Intracluster Light at z ~ 2

Hyungjin Joo, M. James Jee, Kyle Finner +6

We present a JWST analysis of intracluster light (ICL) in XLSSC 122 at z = 1.98, currently the most distant known strong lensing galaxy cluster with an evolved member population. U…

An Active Galaxy Cluster Merger at Cosmic Noon Revealed by JWST Weak Lensing and Multiwavelength Probes

Zachary P. Scofield, Kyle Finner, Hyungjin Joo +8

The galaxy cluster XLSSC~122 is a rare system at , hosting surprisingly evolved member galaxies when the Universe was only one-third of its present age. Leveraging deep J…

How Dust Models Shape High-z Galaxy Morphology: Insights from the NewCluster Simulation

Gyeong-Hwan Byun, J. K. Jang, Zachary P. Scofield +10

Dust plays a pivotal role in shaping the observed morphology of galaxies. While traditional cosmological simulations often assume a fixed dust-to-gas (DTG) or dust-to-metal (DTM) m…

A High-Caliber View of the Bullet Cluster Through JWST Strong and Weak Lensing Analyses

Sangjun Cha, Boseong Young Cho, Hyungjin Joo +5

The Bullet Cluster (1E 0657-56) is a key astrophysical laboratory for studying dark matter, galaxy cluster mergers, and shock propagation in extreme environments. Using new JWST im…
