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 Compact Nuclear Starbursts Masquerading as AGNs in Metal-Poor Dwarfs: Where Are the Accreting Intermediate-Mass Black Holes?

William Matzko, Shobita Satyapal, Jeffrey D. Mckaig +19

We present JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy of the low-mass, metal-poor galaxy SDSS~J160135.95+311353.7 (J1601), selected for its extreme mid-infrared colors and compact nuclear emission,…

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…

Strong LensIng and Cluster Evolution (SLICE) with JWST: Early Results, Lens Models, and High-Redshift Detections

Catherine Cerny, Guillaume Mahler, Keren Sharon +24

We leverage JWST's superb resolution to derive strong lensing mass maps of 14 clusters, spanning a redshift range of and a mass range of $M_{500}\sim2-12 \times…
