Shockingly Effective: Cluster Winds as Engines of Feedback in Starburst Galaxy VV 114

Justin A. Kader, Vivian U, Jeffrey A. Rich +29

We present high-resolution Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) and MUSE IFU spectroscopy of VV 114, a local infrared-luminous merger undergoing a vigorous starburst and showing evidence…

A Spectroscopically Calibrated Prescription for Extracting PAH Flux from JWST MIRI Imaging

Grant P. Donnelly, Thomas S. -Y. Lai, Lee Armus +24

We introduce a prescription for estimating the flux of the 7.7 micron and 11.3 micron\ polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) features from broadband JWST/MIRI images. Probing PAH f…

The Arp 240 Galaxy Merger: A Detailed Look at the Molecular Kennicutt-Schmidt Star Formation Law on Sub-kpc Scales

Alejandro Saravia, Eduardo Rodas-Quito, Loreto Barcos-Muñoz +25

The molecular Kennicutt-Schmidt (mK-S) Law has been key for understanding star formation (SF) in galaxies across all redshifts. However, recent sub-kpc observations of nearby galax…
