First Co-spatial Comparison of Stellar, Neutral-, and Ionized-gas Metallicities in a metal-rich galaxy: M83

Svea Hernandez, Alessandra Aloisi, Bethan L. James +14

We carry out a comparative analysis of the metallicities from the stellar, neutral-gas, and ionized-gas components in the metal-rich spiral galaxy M83. We analyze spectroscopic obs…

Improving Helium Abundance Determinations with Leo P as a Case Study

Erik Aver, Danielle A. Berg, Keith A. Olive +3

Currently, the primordial helium abundance is best estimated through spectroscopic observations of H II regions in metal-poor galaxies. However these determinations are limited by…

Mapping the Escape Fraction of Ionizing Photons Using Resolved Stars: A Much Higher Escape Fraction for NGC 4214

Yumi Choi, Julianne J. Dalcanton, Benjamin F. Williams +6

We demonstrate a new method for measuring the escape fraction of ionizing photons using Hubble Space Telescope imaging of resolved stars in NGC 4214, a local analog of high-redshif…

PHAT XX. AGB stars and other cool giants in M31 star clusters

Leo Girardi, Martha L. Boyer, L. Clifton Johnson +20

The presence of AGB stars in clusters provides key constraints for stellar models, as has been demonstrated with historical data from the Magellanic Clouds. In this work, we look f…

A Demonstration of Extremely Low Latency -ray, X-Ray & UV Follow-Up of a Millisecond Radio Transient

Aaron Tohuvavohu, Casey J. Law, Jamie A. Kennea +18

We report results of a novel high-energy follow-up observation of a potential Fast Radio Burst. The radio burst was detected by VLA/realfast and followed-up by the Neil Gehrels Swi…

CHAOS V: Recombination Line Carbon Abundances in M101

Evan D. Skillman, Danielle A. Berg, Richard W. Pogge +3

The CHAOS project is building a large database of LBT H II region spectra in nearby spiral galaxies to use direct abundances to better determine the dispersion in metallicity as a…
