Euclid: A complete Einstein ring in NGC 6505

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Javier Alejandro Acevedo Barroso

We report the discovery of a complete Einstein ring around the elliptical galaxy NGC 6505, at z = 0.042. This is the first strong gravitational lens discovered in Euclid and the first in an NGC object from any survey. The combination of the low redshift of ...

The MBH-M∗ Relation up to z ∼ 2 through Decomposition of COSMOS-Web NIRCam Images

Michaela Hirschmann

Our knowledge of relations between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies at z greater than or similar to 1 is still limited, even though being actively sought out to z similar to 6. Here, we use the high resolution and sensitivity of JWST to mea ...

Euclid preparation: LIV. Sensitivity to neutrino parameters

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Context. The Euclid mission of the European Space Agency will deliver weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering surveys that can be used to constrain the standard cosmological model and extensions thereof. Aims. We present forecasts from the combina ...

Euclid preparation: LXVII. Deep learning true galaxy morphologies for weak lensing shear bias calibration

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

To date, galaxy image simulations for weak lensing surveys usually approximate the light profiles of all galaxies as a single or double Sérsic profile, neglecting the influence of galaxy substructures and morphologies deviating from such a simplified param ...

Optimal reconstruction of baryon acoustic oscillations for DESI 2024

Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) provide a robust standard ruler to measure the expansion history of the Universe through galaxy clustering. Density-field reconstruction is now a widely adopted procedure for increasing the precision and accuracy of the B ...

CAPERS-LRD-z9: A Gas-enshrouded Little Red Dot Hosting a Broad-line Active Galactic Nucleus at z = 9.288

Michaela Hirschmann

We present CAPERS-LRD-z9, a little red dot (LRD) that we confirm to be a z = 9.288 broad-line active galactic nucleus (BLAGN). First identified as a high-redshift LRD candidate from PRIMER NIRCam photometry, follow-up NIRSpec/PRISM spectroscopy of CAPERS-L ...

Euclid preparation: XLIX. Selecting active galactic nuclei using observed colours

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

The Euclid space mission will cover over 14 000 deg2 with two optical and near-infrared spectro-photometric instruments, and is expected to detect around ten million active galactic nuclei (AGN). This unique data set will make a considerable impact on our ...

CLASSY. VIII. Exploring the Source of Ionization with UV Interstellar Medium Diagnostics in Local High-z Analogs

Adèle Marie Françoise Plat

In the current JWST era, rest-frame UV spectra play a crucial role in enhancing our understanding of the interstellar medium (ISM) and stellar properties of the first galaxies in the epoch of reionization (z > 6). Here, we compare well-known and reliable o ...

The H I covering fraction of Lyman Limit Systems in FIRE haloes

Atomic hydrogen (H i) serves a crucial role in connecting galactic-scale properties such as star formation with the large-scale structure of the Universe. While recent numerical simulations have successfully matched the observed covering fraction of H i ne ...

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry

Richard Irving Anderson, Mauricio Cruz Reyes

Context. Gravitational waves from black-hole (BH) merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected based on most stellar evolution models-And also higher than known ...

Euclid preparation XXII. Selection of quiescent galaxies from mock photometry using machine learning

Maurizio Martinelli, Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Austin Chandler Peel

The Euclid Space Telescope will provide deep imaging at optical and near-infrared wavelengths, along with slitless near-infrared spectroscopy, across similar to 15 000deg(2) of the sky. Euclid is expected to detect similar to 12 billion astronomical source ...

Spectral Templates Optimal for Selecting Galaxies at z > 8 with the JWST

Michaela Hirschmann

The selection of high-redshift galaxies often involves spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting to photometric data, an expectation for contamination levels, and measurement of sample completeness-all vetted through comparison to spectroscopic redshift m ...

An Atlas of Color-selected Quiescent Galaxies at z > 3 in Public JWST Fields

Michaela Hirschmann, Minju Lee

We present the results of a systematic search for candidate quiescent galaxies in the distant universe in 11 JWST fields with publicly available observations collected during the first 3 months of operations and covering an effective sky area of similar to ...

COSMOS-Web: An Overview of the JWST Cosmic Origins Survey

Michaela Hirschmann

We present the survey design, implementation, and outlook for COSMOS-Web, a 255 hr treasury program conducted by the James Webb Space Telescope in its first cycle of observations. COSMOS-Web is a contiguous 0.54 deg² NIRCam imaging survey in four filters ( ...

Dynamics of stellar disc tilting from satellite mergers

The Milky Way's stellar disc can tilt in response to torques that result from infalling satellite galaxies and their associated tidal debris. In this work, we explore the dynamics of disc tilting by running N-body simulations of mergers in an isolated, iso ...

Constraining quasar structure using high-frequency microlensing variations and continuum reverberation

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Georgios Vernardos, Eric Gérard Guy Paic

Gravitational microlensing is a powerful tool for probing the inner structure of strongly lensed quasars and for constraining parameters of the stellar mass function of lens galaxies. This is achieved by analysing microlensing light curves between the mult ...
