The Spatial Evolution of Star Clusters in NGC 628 with JWST

Anne S. M. Buckner, Ana Duarte-Cabral, Angela Adamo +23

We examine the spatial distribution of star clusters in NGC 628 using the statistical tool INDICATE to quantify clustering tendencies. Our sample, based on HST and JWST observation…

PHANGS-JWST: the largest extragalactic molecular cloud catalog traced by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission

Z. Bazzi, D. Colombo, F. Bigiel +25

High-resolution JWST images of nearby spiral galaxies reveal polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission structures that trace molecular gas, including CO-dark regions. We ident…

A multiscale evolutionary study of molecular gas in STARFORGE. I. Synthetic observations of SEDIGISM-like molecular clouds

K. R. Neralwar, D. Colombo, S. Offner +6

Molecular clouds are active sites of star formation in galaxies, and their formation and evolution are largely affected by stellar feedback. This includes outflows and winds from n…

FEAST: JWST/NIRCam view of the Resolved Stellar Populations of the Interacting Dwarf Galaxies NGC~4485/NGC~4490

Giacomo Bortolini, Matteo Correnti, Angela Adamo +23

We present new JWST/NIRCam observations of the interacting dwarf galaxy system NGC 4485/NGC 4490 (a.k.a. Arp 269), obtained as part of the Cycle 1 Feedback in Emerging extrAgalacti…

The near infrared SED of young star clusters in the FEAST galaxies: Missing ingredients at 1-5 m

Alex Pedrini, Angela Adamo, Arjan Bik +23

We present a combined HST and JWST 0.2 - to - 5 m analysis of the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of emerging young star clusters (eYSCs) in four nearby galaxies from the F…

Quantification of The Age Dependence of Mid-Infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators

Daniela Calzetti, Robert C. Kennicutt, Angela Adamo +33

We combine James Webb Space Telescope images of the nearby galaxy NGC 5194 in the hydrogen recombination line Pa-alpha (lambda=1.8756 micron) from the Cycle 1 program JWST-FEAST wi…

FEAST: probing the stellar population of the starburst dwarf galaxy NGC4449 with JWST/NIRCam

Matteo Correnti, Giacomo Bortolini, Flavia Dell'Agli +22

We present new JWST/NIRCam observations of the starburst irregular galaxy NGC 4449, obtained in Cycle 1 as part of the Feedback in Emerging extrAgalactic Star clusTers (FEAST) prog…

Insights into the structure and kinematics of a Milky Way-like galaxy

Eva Durán-Camacho, Ana Duarte-Cabral

Understanding how the large-scale kinematics of the MW shape the formation and evolution of the interstellar medium remains challenging from an observational perspective, and numer…

FEAST: JWST uncovers the emerging timescales of young star clusters in M83

Alice Knutas, Angela Adamo, Alex Pedrini +23

We present JWST NIRCam observations of the emerging young star clusters (eYSCs) detected in the nearby spiral galaxy M83. The NIRcam mosaic encompasses the nuclear starburst, the b…

An Investigation of Disk Thickness in M51 from H-alpha, Pa-alpha, and Mid-Infrared Power Spectra

Bruce G. Elmegreen, Daniela Calzetti, Angela Adamo +27

Power spectra (PS) of high-resolution images of M51 (NGC 5194) taken with the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope have been examined for evidence of disk thic…

Cloud populations versus galactic environment in NGC4689, NGC628, NGC1566, and NGC4321

H. Faustino Vieira, A. Duarte-Cabral, M. W. L. Smith +3

The study of molecular clouds in galaxies beyond the Local Group is limited by the need to efficiently sample diverse galactic environments across galactic discs, typically resulti…

The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: First results from the Corona Australis molecular cloud and evidence of variable dust emissivity indices in the Coronet region

Kate Pattle, David Bresnahan, Derek Ward-Thompson +47

We present 450m and 850m James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) observations of the Corona Australis (CrA) molecular cloud taken as part of the JCMT Gould Belt Legacy Survey (G…
