Mapping gas accretion and stellar kinematics to sub-kiloparsec scales in NGC 4696 with JWST/NIRSpec
Mathieu Marquis, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo, Olivia Pereira +35
We present JWST/NIRSpec IFU spectroscopy of the central pc () of NGC 4696, the BCG in the Centaurus cluster. Leveraging the (…
JWST reveals how black holes are fed: kiloparsec-scale multiphase filaments feed sub-kiloparsec circumnuclear disks
Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo, Hyunseop Choi, Minghao Guo +35
The Centaurus cluster is one of the most important archetypes of radio-mode AGN feedback, with its central galaxy, NGC 4696, launching powerful jets that inflate X-ray cavities and…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: A Low Surface Brightness Science Case
Mireia Montes, Ignacio Trujillo, David MartÃnez Delgado +27
The Extragalactic Low Surface Brightness (LSB, mag/arcsec) Universe represents a crucial, yet largely unseen, frontier in modern astrophysics. This faint realm…
The dependence of the intracluster light fraction on galaxy cluster properties
Louisa Canepa, Sarah Brough, Mireia Montes +1
We use machine learning to measure the intracluster light (ICL) fractions of 177 galaxy groups and clusters identified from Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program imaging to ex…
Insights into environmental quenching at : an enhancement of faint, low-mass passive galaxies in clusters
Harry Gully, Nina Hatch, Syeda Lammim Ahad +11
Understanding the processes that transform star-forming galaxies into quiescent ones is key to unraveling the role of environment in galaxy evolution. We present measurements of th…
Intra-Cluster Light as a Dynamical Clock for Galaxy Clusters: Insights from the MAGNETICUM, IllustrisTNG, Hydrangea and Horizon-AGN Simulations
Lucas C. Kimmig, Sarah Brough, Klaus Dolag +19
As the most massive nodes of the cosmic web, galaxy clusters represent the best probes of structure formation. Over time, they grow by accreting and disrupting satellite galaxies,…
