The Lower Limit of Dynamical Black Hole Masses Detectable in Virgo Compact Stellar Systems Using the JWST/NIRSpec IFU

Behzad Tahmasebzadeh, Andrew Lapeer, Eugene Vasiliev +3

Due to observational challenges, the mass function of black holes (BH) at lower masses is poorly constrained in the local universe. Understanding the occupation fraction of BHs in…

Stellar bars form dark matter counterparts in TNG50

Neil Ash, Monica Valluri, Yingtian Chen +1

Dark matter (DM) bars that shadow stellar bars have been previously shown to form in idealized simulations of isolated disk galaxies. Here, we show that DM bars commonly occur in b…

Velocity-Resolved Reverberation Mapping of NGC 3227

Misty C. Bentz, Madison Markham, Sara Rosborough +4

We describe the results of a new reverberation mapping program focused on the nearby Seyfert galaxy NGC 3227. Photometric and spectroscopic monitoring were carried out from 2022 De…

Deprojection and stellar dynamical modelling of boxy/peanut bars in edge-on discs

Shashank Dattathri, Monica Valluri, Eugene Vasiliev +2

We present a new method to infer the 3D dimensional luminosity distributions of edge-on barred galaxies with boxy-peanut/X (BP/X) shaped structures from their 2D surface brightness…

Figure Rotation of IllustrisTNG Halos

Neil Ash, Monica Valluri

We use the TNG50 and TNG50 dark matter (DM)-only simulations from the IllustrisTNG simulation suite to conduct an updated survey of halo figure rotation in the presence of baryons.…

The DESI Experiment Part II: Instrument Design

DESI Collaboration, Amir Aghamousa, Jessica Aguilar +290

DESI (Dark Energy Spectropic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations and the growth of structure through redshift…
