The SPHEREx Instrument: Calibration, testing and performance measurements of the NIR 2 spectroscopic surveyor from the laboratory to in-orbit commissioning
Phil M. Korngut, James J. Bock, Samuel Condon +90
The SPHEREx near-infrared space telescope is an all-sky spectroscopic survey mission launched on March 12th, 2025 UTC. In addition to providing the community with a spectral databa…
The GECKOS Survey: Extraplanar ionised gas in star-forming galaxies from eDIG to galaxy-scale winds
R. Elliott, D. B. Fisher, B. Mazzilli Ciraulo +19
We map the extraplanar gas, with 50-200 pc resolution, in nine star-forming galaxies using Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) observations from the GECKOS VLT Large Pro…
The GECKOS Survey: Resolved, multiphase observations of mass-loading and gas density in the galactic wind of NGC 4666
Barbara Mazzilli Ciraulo, D. B. Fisher, R. Elliott +24
We present a multiphase, resolved study of the galactic wind extending from the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 4666. For this we use VLT/MUSE observations from the GECKOS program and…
The GECKOS Survey: Identifying kinematic sub-structures in edge-on galaxies
A. Fraser-McKelvie, J. van de Sande, D. A. Gadotti +30
The vertical evolution of galactic discs is governed by the sub-structures within them. We examine the diversity of kinematic sub-structure present in the first 12 galaxies observe…
