Detection of CO ice in the planetary nebula NGC 6302
Charmi Bhatt, Simon W. Cao, Jan Cami +20
Using JWST/MIRI observations, we report the detection of CO ice in the dusty torus of the planetary nebula NGC 6302, an environment generally considered hostile to fragile mole…
Globules and pillars in Cygnus X IV. Velocity-resolved [OI] 63 mu map of a peculiar proplyd-like object
N. Schneider, S. Dannhauer, E. Keilmann +14
We investigated an isolated, globule-shaped object (0.37x0.11 pc), located near the centre of the Cygnus OB2 cluster and named proplyd #7 in optical observations. The source can be…
The Local Distance Network: a community consensus report on the measurement of the Hubble constant at 1% precision
H0DN Collaboration, Stefano Casertano, Gagandeep Anand +35
The direct, empirical determination of the local value of the Hubble constant (H0) has markedly advanced thanks to improved instrumentation, measurement techniques, and distance es…
Unlocking AGN Variability with Custom ZTF Photometry for High-Fidelity Light Curves and Robust Selection
P. Arévalo, P. Sánchez-Sáez, B. Sotomayor +3
(Abridged)We explore the potential of optical variability selection methods to identify AGN, including those challenging to detect with conventional techniques. Using the unprecede…
