DIGging into HII regions: the role of ionizing photon leakage and spectral hardening in coupling HII regions and diffuse ionized gas
Dalya Baron, Kathryn Kreckel, Gwen C. Rudie +15
The optical emission-line ratios of star-forming galaxies are broadly understood in the framework of photoionization, yet some systematic trends remain unexplained. Using 50--100 p…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: The motion of dust - PAH kinematics of M82 and NGC 253 with JWST/MIRI spectroscopy
Fergus R. Donnan, Karin Sandstrom, Alberto D. Bolatto +27
We present an analysis of dust kinematics in the local starburst galaxies M82 (NGC 3034) and NGC 253 using Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) features observed with JWST/MIRI sp…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: A Young Bubble in NGC 253's Central Starburst
Kaitlyn E. Sheriff, Elisabeth A. C. Mills, Xinyu Mai +31
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of a young bubble in the nuclear starburst of NGC 253 using new JWST MIRI-MRS observations together with archival ALMA (100, 350, 690 GHz) an…
Using GALEX UV Excess to Search for Metal-poor Halo Stars
Chase L. Smith, Maxwell Moe, Megan Frank +10
Metal-poor solar-type stars display a significant reduction in metal-line blanketing at short wavelengths, leading to an excess of near-ultraviolet (NUV) flux compared to their met…
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…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: Molecular Hydrogen Excitation and Disequilibrium in M82
Sara E. Duval, J. D. T. Smith, Alberto D. Bolatto +24
Emission from the pure rotational transitions of H traces warm molecular gas, providing insight into its temperature distribution and local heating conditions. We have extended…
Determining star formation histories and age-metallicity relations with convolutional neural networks
Enrique Galceran, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Artemi Camps-Fariña +8
We aim to develop a state-of-the-art tool to infer detailed star formation histories (SFHs) and age-metallicity relations from realistic observational data, while mitigating classi…
JWST Observations of Starbursts: Dust Processing in the M82 Superwind
Serena A. Cronin, Alberto D. Bolatto, Helena M. Richie +39
We present JWST MIRI and NIRCam imaging of the inner ~5 kpc of the M82 superwind at 0.05-0.375'' (~0.9-6.5 pc) resolution. Targeted filters probe emission from polycyclic aromatic…
Nowhere Left to Hide: Uncovering All of the Massive Young Embedded Star Clusters in the Antennae with JWST
Rupali Chandar, Miranda Caputo, Paul Goudfrooij +15
The Antennae galaxies merger produces the brightest infrared emission of any galaxy within ~20 Mpc, mostly from intense star formation taking place in supergiant molecular cloud co…
Uncovering the multi-scale structure of dust distribution in nearby galaxies
E. Tanchon, M. Boquien, J. Chastenet +18
High-resolution JWST-MIRI images now allow us to resolve in great detail the multi-scale nature of the emission in nearby star-forming galaxies, from compact star-forming regions t…
Localized Deviations from the CO-PAH Relation in PHANGS-JWST Galaxies: Faint PAH Emission or Elevated CO Emissivity?
Jaeyeon Kim, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +25
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission is widely used to trace the distribution of molecular gas in the interstellar medium, exhibiting a tight correlation with CO(2-1) emi…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons destruction in star-forming regions across 42 nearby galaxies
Oleg V. Egorov, Adam K. Leroy, Karin Sandstrom +30
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread in the interstellar medium (ISM) of Solar metallicity galaxies, where they play a critical role in ISM heating, cooling, and…
Characterization of Two Cool Galaxy Outflow Candidates Using Mid-Infrared Emission from Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Jessica Sutter, Karin Sandstrom, Ryan Chown +22
We characterize two candidate cool galactic outflows in two relatively low mass, highly inclined Virgo cluster galaxies: NGC4424 and NGC4694. Previous analyses of observations usin…
The Metallicity Dependence of PAH Emission in Galaxies II: Insights from JWST/NIRCam Imaging of the Smallest Dust Grains in M101
Cory M. Whitcomb, J. -D. T. Smith, Elizabeth Tarantino +11
We explore the physical origins of the observed deficit of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) at sub-solar metallicity using JWST/NIRCam imaging of the nearby galaxy M101, cov…
Linking stellar populations to HII regions across nearby galaxies. II. Infrared Reprocessed and UV Direct Radiation Pressure in HII Regions
Debosmita Pathak, Adam Leroy, Todd Thompson +27
Radiation pressure is a key mechanism by which stellar feedback disrupts molecular clouds and drives HII region expansion. This includes direct radiation pressure exerted by UV pho…
