Life 2.0: A Scalable Distributed Space-Telescope Array for Biosignature Spectroscopy
Jian Ge, Zhangqi Dang, Ziru Zhang +15
Answering the question "Are we alone?" requires atmospheric spectroscopy of nearby terrestrial planets. For an Earth--Sun analog, even the strongest transmission signals are expect…
XRISM Resolves the Circum-nuclear Environment of NGC 4945
Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Yoshihiro Ueda +31
Compton-thick Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) represent one of the most elusive phases of massive black hole growth, yet are expected to contribute substantially to the Cosmic X-ray B…
JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. IV. Detailed Imaging of the Protoplanetary Disk around TW Hya
Yu-Chia Lin, Jarron Leisenring, Schuyler G. Wolff +14
As the nearest protoplanetary disk to Earth ( pc), TW Hya is one of the most studied protoplanetary disks and a critical benchmark for testing planet formation theories.…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). II. A Catalog of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote, Lauren A. MacArthur +51
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep, high resolution imaging campaign that used the 1 deg MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to carr…
Satellite quenching by radio jets of central galaxies in galaxy groups
Yijun Wang, Tao Wang, Dingyi Zhao +9
Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is now recognized as a key component of galaxy formation models. It plays a central role in regulating the growth and quenching of galaxi…
A millimeter Survey for Disks around Herbig Be Stars
David J. Wilner, Joshua Bennett Lovell, Sean M. Andrews +3
We present a survey of 24 Herbig Be stars (young stellar objects M) within 3 kpc at 1.3~millimeters using the Submillimeter Array at about resolution to identi…
