The Y Dwarf Population with HST: unlocking the secrets of our coolest neighbours -- III. Near-Infrared Photometry
Clémence Fontanive, Luigi R. Bedin, Mark W. Phillips +4
Y dwarfs represent the coldest class of brown dwarfs, with effective temperatures below 500K, and provide unique analogues to cold giant exoplanets. We present a large compilation…
JWST imaging of omega Centauri: II. Evidence for a split white dwarf cooling sequence in the near-infrared
M. Scalco, M. Salaris, L. R. Bedin +11
We present a detailed analysis of the white dwarf cooling sequence (WD CS) in omega Centauri based on combined Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and JWST observations. Our analysis conf…
JWST imaging of omega Centauri -- I. Luminosity and mass functions of its main sequence populations
M. Scalco, R. Gerasimov, L. R. Bedin +10
This paper presents the first study of the most massive globular cluster (GC) in the Milky Way, omega Centauri, employing recently acquired JWST deep images. By combining these dat…
JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters -- VI. The Lowest-Mass Objects in M 4 and the Galactic Bulge
L. R. Bedin, R. Gerasimov, A. Calamida +8
We present `James Webb Space Telescope' observations of M4 -- the closest globular cluster -- that probe the lower Main Sequence down to the hydrogen-burning limit. The unveiled st…
James Webb Space Telescope observations of the white dwarf cooling sequence of 47 Tucanae
M. Salaris, M. Scalco, L. R. Bedin +1
We present a study of the white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae (47 Tuc or NGC 104) using deep infrared observations with the James Webb Space Telesc…
JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters -- V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4
L. R. Bedin, M. Libralato, M. Salaris +9
We combine infrared (IR) observations collected by the James Webb Space Telescope with optical deep images by the Hubble Space Telescope taken approximately 20 years earlier to com…
