EWOCS VII : Unveiling the faint diffuse X-ray emission in Westerlund 1
Albacete-Colombo J. F., Andersen M., De Becker M. +16
Westerlund 1 (Wd 1) is the closest supermassive star cluster to the Sun, with over 100,000 stars of all spectral types down to brown dwarfs. This population strongly heats the surr…
EWOCS-IV: 1Ms ACIS Chandra observation of the supergiant B[e] star Wd1-9
K. Anastasopoulou, M. G. Guarcello, J. J. Drake +21
Supergiant B[e] (sgB[e]) stars are exceptionally rare objects, with only a handful of confirmed examples in the Milky Way. The evolutionary pathways leading to the sgB[e] phase rem…
Micro-Mirror-Devices (MMDs): A New Family of MOEMS for the Habitable World Observatory
M. Robberto, M. Gennaro, S. Kassin +5
We present a new program aimed at developing a new generation of micromirror devices specifically tailored for astronomical applications, multi-slit spectroscopy in particular. We…
EWOCS-III: JWST observations of the supermassive star cluster Westerlund 1
M. G. Guarcello, V. Almendros-Abad, J. B. Lovell +29
The typically large distances, extinction, and crowding of Galactic supermassive star clusters have so far hampered the identification of their very low mass members, required to e…
