Probing the IMF in the Early Universe -- Direct measurements in the Boötes I UFD with JWST/NIRCam
Keyi Ding, Mario Gennaro, Roberto J. Avila +20
The dependence of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) on star-formation environment, particularly at low metallicities and high redshifts, remains poorly constrained. Ultra-fai…
The JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science Program. IX. The RR Lyrae Population in WLM with HST and JWST
Catherine M. Slaughter, Evan D. Skillman, Alessandro Savino +16
RR Lyrae stars are a common, dependable Population II distance indicator, and provide an independent tracer of early star formation. Here, we utilize archival HST/ACS and JWST/NIRC…
A Chemodynamical Census of the Milky Way's Ultra-Faint Compact Satellites. I. A First Population-Level Look at the Internal Kinematics and Metallicities of 19 Extremely-Low-Mass Halo Stellar Systems
William Cerny, Ting S. Li, Andrew B. Pace +13
Deep, wide-area photometric surveys have uncovered a population of compact ( 1-15 pc), extremely-low-mass ( 20-4000 ) stellar systems in th…
Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor Star Candidates in the Milky Way from J-PLUS and S-PLUS
Jihye Hong, Timothy C. Beers, Yang Huang +4
Recent large-scale multi-band photometric surveys now enable elemental-abundance estimates for millions of stars with accuracies approaching those of low- to medium-resolution spec…
No Observational Evidence for Dark Matter Nor a Large Metallicity Spread in the Extreme Milky Way Satellite Ursa Major III / UNIONS 1
William Cerny, Daisy Bissonette, Alexander P. Ji +9
The extremely-low-luminosity, compact Milky Way satellite Ursa Major III / UNIONS 1 (UMaIII/U1; ; pc) was found to have a substantial velocity d…
Wide binaries in an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy: discovery, population modeling, and a nail in the coffin of primordial black hole dark matter
Cheyanne Shariat, Kareem El-Badry, Mario Gennaro +24
We report the discovery and characterization of a wide binary population in the ultrafaint dwarf galaxy Boötes I using deep JWST/NIRCam imaging. Our sample consists of 52 candidat…
