Dust production in the harsh environment of Sgr A* - MIRI/JWST observation of the O-rich asymptotic giant branch star IRS~3
F. Peißker, M. García Marín, A. Eckart +18
Studies of the interstellar medium (ISM) have frequently revealed signatures of the dust produced in the envelopes of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, demonstrating a connectio…
MICONIC: The spatial relationship between star formation and the AGN in Centaurus A revealed by JWST/MIRI
O. C. Jones, M. L. Jones, D. Dicken +21
Centaurus A (Cen A), the nearest active radio galaxy, hosts a warped dust disc formed in a gas-rich merger. We present JWST/MIRI imaging in three filters, F560W, F770W, and F1130W,…
Constraining the Physical Properties of Quadruply Lensed Quasars using Optical-to-X-Ray Data
Kriti Kamal Gupta, Dominique Sluse, Maarten Baes +5
Gravitational lensing of luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN; or quasars) can be used as a natural telescope to zoom in on their inner structures. With more and more lensed AGN be…
VST-SMASH: VST Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy II. Exploring dwarf galaxies in the vicinity of NGC 5068 and of the two galaxies NGC 5084 and NGC 5087 at the edges of the Virgo Supercluster
C. Tortora, R. Ragusa, L. K. Hunt +9
We present a study of dwarf galaxy candidates in the deepest optical imaging yet obtained of the field surrounding the nearby galaxies NGC 5068 and NGC 5084/NGC 5087, the latter tw…
TODDLERS 2.0: Stellar feedback and observables across diverse IMFs, binary populations, and cloud environments
Anand Utsav Kapoor, Andrea Gebek, Maarten Baes +4
Modeling the feedback-driven evolution of star-forming regions and their multi-wavelength emission is essential for interpreting galaxy observations across cosmic time. TODDLERS co…
Survival of very small carbonaceous dust grains in the inner-CGM of NGC 891 from JWST/MIRI MRS
Jérémy Chastenet, Ilse De Looze, Karl D. Gordon +26
We present new spectroscopic observations of the inner circumgalactic medium (CGM) of NGC 891 taken with the Mid-Infrared Imager/Medium Resolution Spectroscopy instrument onboard J…
