The JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science Program IV: The Star Formation History of the Local Group Galaxy WLM
Kristen. B. W. McQuinn, Max J. B. Newman, Alessandro Savino +23
We present the first star formation history (SFH) and age-metallicity relation (AMR) derived from resolved stellar populations imaged with the JWST NIRCam instrument. The target is…
Stellar Metallicities and Gradients in the Isolated, Quenched Low-Mass Galaxy Tucana
Sal Wanying Fu, Daniel R. Weisz, Else Starkenburg +10
We measure the metallicities of 374 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the isolated, quenched dwarf galaxy Tucana using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) narrow-band (F395N) Calcium H & K…
The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of M31 Satellite Galaxies. III. Calibrating the Horizontal Branch as an Age Indicator for Nearby Galaxies
Connor Jennings, Alessandro Savino, Daniel Weisz +14
We present a new method for measuring the mean age of old/intermediate stellar populations in resolved, metal-poor () galaxies using only th…
The updated BaSTI stellar evolution models and isochrones.IV. alpha-depleted calculations
Adriano Pietrinferni, Maurizio Salaris, Santi Cassisi +4
This is the fourth paper of our new release of the BaSTI (a Bag of Stellar Tracks and Isochrones) stellar model and isochrone library. Following the updated solar-scaled, alpha-enh…
Testing the near-far connection with FIRE simulations: inferring the stellar mass function of the proto-Local Group at z > 6 using the fossil record of present-day galaxies
Pratik J. Gandhi, Andrew Wetzel, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +6
The shape of the low-mass (faint) end of the galaxy stellar mass function (SMF) or ultraviolet luminosity function (UVLF) at z > 6 is an open question for understanding which galax…
NANCY: Next-generation All-sky Near-infrared Community surveY
Jiwon Jesse Han, Arjun Dey, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +206
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is capable of delivering an unprecedented all-sky, high-spatial resolution, multi-epoch infrared map to the astronomical community. This oppor…
Metallicity Distribution Functions of 13 Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidates from Hubble Space Telescope Narrowband Imaging
Sal Wanying Fu, Daniel R. Weisz, Else Starkenburg +10
We present uniformly measured stellar metallicities for 463 stars in 13 Milky Way (MW) ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs; to ) using narrowband CaHK (F395N) imagi…
SN 2023ixf in Messier 101: Photo-ionization of Dense, Close-in Circumstellar Material in a Nearby Type II Supernova
W. V. Jacobson-Galan, L. Dessart, R. Margutti +65
We present UV/optical observations and models of supernova (SN) 2023ixf, a type II SN located in Messier 101 at 6.9 Mpc. Early-time ("flash") spectroscopy of SN 2023ixf, obtained p…
The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of M31 Satellite Galaxies II. The Star Formation Histories of Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies
A. Savino, D. R. Weisz, E. D. Skillman +34
We present the lifetime star formation histories (SFHs) for six ultra-faint dwarf (UFD; , ) satellite galaxies of M31 based on…
On the Reionization-Era Globular Cluster in Low-Mass Galaxy Eridanus II
Daniel R. Weisz, Alessandro Savino, Andrew E. Dolphin
Using color-magnitude diagrams from deep archival Hubble Space Telescope imaging, we self-consistently measure the star formation history of Eridanus II (Eri II), the lowest-mass g…
The PAndAS View of the Andromeda Satellite System. IV Global properties
Amandine Doliva-Dolinsky, Nicolas F. Martin, Zhen Yuan +8
We build a statistical framework to infer the global properties of the satellite system of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) from the properties of individual dwarf galaxies located in th…
The JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science Program III: Photometric Star-Galaxy Separations for NIRCam
Jack T. Warfield, Hannah Richstein, Nitya Kallivayalil +15
We present criteria for separately classifying stars and unresolved background galaxies in photometric catalogs generated with the point spread function (PSF) fitting photometry so…
The JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science Program II. Survey Overview
Daniel R. Weisz, Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Alessandro Savino +39
We present the JWST Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science (ERS) science program. We obtained 27.5 hours of NIRCam and NIRISS imaging of three targets in the Local Grou…
