The extended stellar halo' of the Ursa Minor dwarf galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

Stellar candidates in the Ursa Minor (UMi) dwarf galaxy have been found using a new Bayesian algorithm applied to Gaia EDR3 data. Five of these targets are located in the extreme outskirts of UMi, from similar to 5 to 12 elliptical half-light radii (r h), ...

How much metal did the first stars provide to the ultra-faint dwarfs?

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Mahsa Sanati, Fabien Nicolas Jeanquartier

Numerical simulations of dwarf galaxies have so far failed to reproduce the observed metallicity-luminosity relation, down to the regime of ultra-faint dwarfs (UFDs). We address this issue by exploring how the first generations of metal-free stars (Pop III ...

Euclid: Searching for pair-instability supernovae with the Deep Survey

Yi Wang, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Giovanni Longo

Pair-instability supernovae are theorized supernovae that have not yet been observationally confirmed. They are predicted to exist in low-metallicity environments. Because overall metallicity becomes lower at higher redshifts, deep near-infrared transient ...

Although true metal-free "Population III" stars have so far escaped discovery, their nature, and that of their supernovae, is revealed in the chemical products left behind in the next generations of stars. Here we report the detection of an ultra-metal-poo ...

Multiple Stellar Populations in Globular Clusters

Carmela Lardo

Globular clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star variations in specific elements (e.g., He, C, N, O, Na, Al) that bear the hallmark of high-temperature H-burning. These abundance variations can be observed spectroscopically and also photometrically, with the a ...

(Re-)inventing the relativistic wheel: gravity, cosets, and spinning objects

Alexander Monin, Francesco Riva, Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

Space-time symmetries are a crucial ingredient of any theoretical model in physics. Unlike internal symmetries, which may or may not be gauged and/or spontaneously broken, space-time symmetries do not admit any ambiguity: they are gauged by gravity, and an ...
