Emission Line Diagnostics for IMBHs in Dwarf Galaxies: Accounting for BH Seeding and ULX Excitation

Chris T. Richardson, Jordan Wels, Kristen Garofali +13

Dwarf AGN serve as the ideal systems for identifying intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) down to the most elusive regimes (). However, the ubiquitousl…

An Empirical Framework Characterizing the Metallicity and Star-Formation History Dependence of X-ray Binary Population Formation and Emission in Galaxies

Bret D. Lehmer, Erik B. Monson, Rafael T. Eufrasio +12

We present a new empirical framework modeling the metallicity and star-formation history (SFH) dependence of X-ray luminous ( ergs s) point-source population lu…

Modeling the High-Energy Ionizing Output from Simple Stellar and X-ray Binary Populations

Kristen Garofali, Antara R. Basu-Zych, Benjamin D. Johnson +9

We present a methodology for modeling the joint ionizing impact due to a "simple X-ray population" (SXP) and its corresponding simple stellar population (SSP), where "simple" refer…

Lightning: An X-ray to Submillimeter Galaxy SED-Fitting Code With Physically-Motivated Stellar, Dust, and AGN Models

Keith Doore, Erik B. Monson, Rafael T. Eufrasio +3

We present an updated version of Lightning, a galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting code that can model X-ray to submillimeter observations. The models in Lightning inc…

The Impact of Inclination-dependent Attenuation on Ultraviolet Star Formation Rate Tracers

Keith Doore, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Bret D. Lehmer +3

We examine and quantify how hybrid (e.g., UV+IR) star formation rate (SFR) estimators and the - relation depend on inclination for disk-dominated galaxies using spe…

Elevated Hot Gas and High-Mass X-ray Binary Emission in Low Metallicity Galaxies: Implications for Nebular Ionization and Intergalactic Medium Heating in the Early Universe

Bret D. Lehmer, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Antara Basu-Zych +4

High-energy emission associated with star formation has been proposed as a significant source of interstellar medium (ISM) ionization in low-metallicity starbursts and an important…

On the Impact of Inclination-Dependent Attenuation on Derived Star Formation Histories: Results from Disk Galaxies in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey Fields

Keith Doore, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Bret D. Lehmer +4

We develop and implement an inclination-dependent attenuation prescription for spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting and study its impact on derived star-formation histories.…

The Metallicity Dependence of the High-Mass X-ray Binary Luminosity Function

Bret D. Lehmer, Rafael T. Eufrasio, Antara Basu-Zych +7

We present detailed constraints on the metallicity dependence of the high mass X-ray binary (HMXB) X-ray luminosity function (XLF). We analyze ~5 Ms of Chandra data for 55 actively…

A Deep XMM-Newton Survey of M33: Point Source Catalog, Source Detection and Characterization of Overlapping Fields

Benjamin F. Williams, Brian Wold, Frank Haberl +9

We have obtained a deep 8-field XMM-Newton mosaic of M33 covering the galaxy out to the D isophote and beyond to a limiting 0.2--4.5 keV unabsorbed flux of 510$^{-16…
