Tracing the earliest stages of star and cluster formation in 19 nearby galaxies with PHANGS-JWST and HST: compact 3.3 m PAH emitters and their relation to the optical census of star clusters
M. Jimena RodrÃguez, Janice C. Lee, Remy Indebetouw +25
The earliest stages of star and cluster formation are hidden within dense cocoons of gas and dust, limiting their detection at optical wavelengths. With the unprecedented infrared…
The Clearing Timescale for Infrared-selected Star Clusters in M83 with HST
Suyash Deshmukh, Sean T. Linden, Daniela Calzetti +6
We present an analysis of Hubble Space Telescope (HST) data from WFC3/UVIS, WFC3/IR and ACS, investigating the young stellar cluster (YSC) population in the face-on spiral galaxy M…
Feedback in Emerging extragAlactic Star clusTers, FEAST: JWST spots PAH destruction in NGC 628 during the emerging phase of star formation
Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Daniela Calzetti +21
We investigate the emergence phase of young star clusters in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 628. We use JWST NIRCam and MIRI observations to create spatially resolved maps of the Pa$…
Feedback in Emerging Extragalactic Star Clusters (JWST--FEAST): Calibration of Star Formation Rates in the Mid-Infrared with NGC 628
Daniela Calzetti, Angela Adamo, Sean T. Linden +19
New JWST near-infrared imaging of the nearby galaxy NGC 628 from the Cycle 1 program JWST-FEAST is combined with archival JWST mid-infrared imaging to calibrate the 21 m emissi…
Feedback in emerging extragalactic star clusters, FEAST: The relation between 3.3 m PAH emission and Star Formation Rate traced by ionized gas in NGC 628
Benjamin Gregg, Daniela Calzetti, Angela Adamo +23
We present maps of ionized gas (traced by Pa and Br) and 3.3 m Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) emission in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 628, derived from new JWST…
The Timescales of Star Cluster Emergence: The Case of NGC 4449
Timothy McQuaid, Daniela Calzetti, Sean T. Linden +7
We survey the young star cluster population in the dwarf galaxy NGC4449 with the goal of investigating how stellar feedback may depend on the clusters' properties. Using Ultraviole…
