EPOCHS XI: The Structure and Morphology of Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization to z ~ 12.5

Lewi Westcott, Christopher J. Conselice, Thomas Harvey +29

We present a structural analysis of 521 galaxy candidates at 6.5 < z < 12.5, with in the F444W filter, taken from the EPOCHS v1 sample, consisting of uniformly reduced…

Galaxy Mergers in the Epoch of Reionization II: Major Merger-Triggered Star Formation and AGN Activities at 4.5-8.5

Qiao Duan, Qiong Li, Christopher J. Conselice +29

Galaxy mergers are a key driver of galaxy formation and evolution, including the triggering of AGN and star formation to a still unknown degree. We thus investigate the impact of g…

Galaxy Mergers in the Epoch of Reionization I: A JWST Study of Pair Fractions, Merger Rates, and Stellar Mass Accretion Rates at

Qiao Duan, Christopher J. Conselice, Qiong Li +30

We present a full analysis of galaxy major merger pair fractions, merger rates, and mass accretion rates, thus uncovering the role of mergers in galaxy formation at the earliest pr…

A high-resolution view of the source-plane magnification near cluster caustics in wave dark matter models

Jose M. Diego, Alfred Amruth, Jose M. Palencia +10

We present the highest resolution images to date of caustics formed by wave dark matter (DM) fluctuations near the critical curves of cluster gravitational lenses. We describe t…

Dark Matter distinguished by skewed microlensing in the "Dragon Arc"

Tom Broadhurst, Sung Kei Li, Amruth Alfred +18

Microlensed stars recently discovered by JWST & HST follow closely the winding critical curve of A370 along all sections of the ``Dragon Arc" traversed by the critical curve. These…

Imaging dark matter at the smallest scales with lensed stars

J. M. Diego, Sung Kei Li, Alfred Amruth +19

Observations of caustic-crossing galaxies at redshift show a wealth of transient events. Most of them are believed to be microlensing events of highly magnified stars. Ea…

Flashlights: Transients among Gravitationally-Lensed Star Clusters in the Dragon Arc. I. Stellar Microlensing vs Stellar Outbursts

Sung Kei Li, Jose M. Diego, Patrick L. Kelly +8

We report the discovery of transients among star clusters in a distant galaxy that is gravitationally lensed by a foreground galaxy cluster, and explore whether these transients co…

Identification of 40 gravitationally magnified stars in a galaxy at redshift of 0.725

Yoshinobu Fudamoto, Fengwu Sun, Jose M. Diego +44

Strong gravitational magnifications enable to detect faint background sources, resolve their internal structures, and even identify individual stars in distant galaxies. Highly mag…
