Resolved Stellar Mass Estimation of Nearby Late-type Galaxies for the SPHEREx Era: Dependence on Stellar Population Synthesis Models

Jeong Hwan Lee, Minjin Kim, Taehyun Kim +7

The upcoming all-sky infrared spectrophotometric SPHEREx mission is set to provide spatially resolved stellar mass maps of nearby galaxies, offering more detailed insights than int…

Accuracy of Stellar Mass-to-light Ratios of Nearby Galaxies in the Near-Infrared

Taehyun Kim, Minjin Kim, Luis C. Ho +12

Future satellite missions are expected to perform all-sky surveys, thus providing the entire sky near-infrared spectral data and consequently opening a new window to investigate th…

Bar Properties as a Function of Wavelength: A Local Baseline with S4G for High-Redshift Studies

Karín Menéndez-Delmestre, Thiago S. Gonçalves, Kartik Sheth +10

The redshift evolution of bars is an important signpost of the dynamic maturity of disk galaxies. To characterize the intrinsic evolution safe from band-shifting effects, it is nec…

A JWST investigation into the bar fraction at redshifts 1 < z < 3

Zoe A. Le Conte, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Leonardo Ferreira +7

The presence of a stellar bar in a disc galaxy indicates that the galaxy hosts in its main part a dynamically settled disc and that bar-driven processes are taking place in shaping…

A new method for age-dating the formation of bars in disc galaxies: The TIMER view on NGC1433's old bar and the inside-out growth of its nuclear disc

Camila de Sá-Freitas, Francesca Fragkoudi, Dimitri A. Gadotti +16

The epoch in which galactic discs settle is a major benchmark to test models of galaxy formation and evolution but is as yet largely unknown. Once discs settle and become self-grav…

A Mid-infrared Flare in the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 3786: A Changing-look Event Triggered by an Obscured Tidal Disruption Event?

Suyeon Son, Minjin Kim, Luis C. Ho +2

We report an exceptional mid-infrared flare in the Seyfert 1.8 NGC 3786. In the multi-epoch data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, the nuclear mid-infrared brightness o…
