Kinematics of Distant Milky Way Halo RR Lyrae Stars out to 160 kpc

Yuting Feng, Puragra Guhathakurta, Eric W. Peng +4

We present a kinematical study of the outer halo (r_GC approximately 60 to 160 kpc) of the Milky Way based on spectroscopy of 55 RR Lyrae stars obtained with the ESI instrument on…

JWST Observations of the Double Nucleus in NGC 4486B: Possible Evidence for a Recent Binary SMBH Merger and Recoil

Behzad Tahmasebzadeh, Monica Valluri, Shashank Dattathri +19

A recent study of the compact elliptical galaxy NGC 4486B using JWST-NIRSpec IFU kinematics confirmed a supermassive black hole (SMBH) of mass (~8% of…

AVID: Formation and evolution of a coalesced major merger of late-type dwarf galaxies (VCC 479) on the outskirts of the Virgo cluster

Weibin Sun, Hong-Xin Zhang, Rory Smith +24

Dwarf-dwarf galaxy mergers are among the least explored aspects of dwarf galaxy pre-processing as they fall into clusters. We present the first case study of a coalesced late-type…

Mapping the Spatial Distribution of Fast Radio Bursts within their Host Galaxies

Alexa C. Gordon, Wen-fai Fong, Adam T. Deller +23

We present deep optical and near-infrared observations of the host galaxies of 34 fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Commensal Real-time ASKAP Fast Transient (CRAFT) survey o…

A JWST View of the Overmassive Black Hole in NGC 4486B

Behzad Tahmasebzadeh, Matthew A. Taylor, Monica Valluri +19

We present a new stellar dynamical measurement of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the compact elliptical galaxy NGC 4486B, based on integral field spectroscopy with JWST/NIRS…
