How can we finally see the first light? Status and perspective in the search for Population III stars
Alessandra Venditti, Daniel Schaerer, Erik Zackrisson +28
Finding the first (Population III or Pop III) stars is one of the fundamental quests of astronomy, aiming to deliver the missing link in how stars form at early cosmic times. Yet t…
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…
Synergy between Roman and PRIMA imaging capabilities for large extragalactic surveys
Médéric Boquien, Laure Ciesla, Roman Amestoy +3
The Roman Space Telescope will be instrumental for characterizing the physical properties of galaxies and understanding their evolution across time. However, a complete view of gal…
Understanding the Evolution of Black Hole Accretion and Dust out to z=4 with a Deep Imaging Extragalactic Survey with PRIMA
Andreas L. Faisst, Chian-Chou Chen, Laure Ciesla +1
The cosmic evolution of obscured star formation, dust properties and production mechanisms, and the prevalence of dust-obscured AGN out to high redshifts are currently some of the…
