Distinct origins of environmentally quenched galaxies in the core and outer virialised regions of massive clusters at 0.8 &lt; z &lt; 1.5

Yannick Michael Bahé

High-redshift (

z

∼ 1) galaxy clusters are the domain where environmental quenching mechanisms are expected to emerge as important factors in the evolution of the quiescent galaxy population. Uncovering these initially subtle effects requires exploring mu ...

BEACON: JWST NIRCam Pure-parallel Imaging Survey. I. Survey Design and Initial Results

Yannick Michael Bahé

We introduce the Bias-free Extragalactic Analysis for Cosmic Origins with NIRCam (BEACON) survey, a JWST Cycle 2 program allocated up to 600 pure-parallel hours of observations. BEACON explores high-latitude areas of the sky with JWST/NIRCam over ∼100 inde ...

Evolution of the UV slope of galaxies at cosmic morning (z > 4): The properties of extremely blue galaxies

Michaela Hirschmann

We present an analysis of the UV continuum slope, β, using a sample of 726 galaxies with z > 4, selected from a mixture of JWST ERS, GTO, and GO observational programs. We considered only spectroscopic data obtained with the low-resolution (R ∼ 30−300) PRI ...

Euclid preparation: LXX. Forecasting detection limits for intracluster light in the Euclid Wide Survey

Georges Meylan

The intracluster light (ICL) permeating galaxy clusters is a tracer of the cluster assembly history and potentially a tracer of their dark matter structure. In this work, we explore the capability of the Euclid Wide Survey to detect ICL using HE-band mock ...

Mass of Cepheid V350 Sgr Incorporating Interferometry and the Companion Mass

Richard Irving Anderson, Giordano Viviani

The system V350 Sgr has a classical Cepheid for the primary. Interferometry is presented for the system, and the full orbit is determined. The mass of the companion has been determined from an International Ultraviolet Explorer spectrum and comparison with ...

The VELOCE modulation zoo II. Humps and splitting patterns in spectral lines of classical Cepheids

Richard Irving Anderson, Giordano Viviani, Henryka Ewa Netzel

Context. Line splitting in spectral lines is observed in various types of stars due to phenomena such as shocks, spectroscopic binaries, magnetic fields, spots, and nonradial modes. In pulsating stars, line splitting is often attributed to pulsation-induce ...

Euclid: Early Release Observations – Unveiling the morphology of two Milky Way globular clusters out to their periphery

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

As part of the Euclid Early Release Observations (ERO) programme, we analysed deep, wide-field imaging from the VIS and NISP instruments of two Milky Way globular clusters (GCs), namely NGC 6254 (M10) and NGC 6397, to look for observational evidence of the ...

Beyond MACS: physical properties of extremely X-ray luminous clusters at z > 0.5

Benjamin Emmanuel Nicolas Beauchesne

We present a sample of over 100 highly X-ray luminous galaxy clusters (L-X,L-0.1-2.4keV similar to 10(45 )erg s(-1)) at z similar to 0.5-0.9, discovered by the extended Massive Cluster Survey (eMACS) in ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) data. Follow-up observati ...

Euclid II. The VIS instrument

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

This paper presents the specification, design, and development of the Visible Camera (VIS) on the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission. VIS is a large optical-band imager with a field of view of 0.54 deg2 sampled at 000 . 1 with an array of 609 Megapixel ...

DESI 2024 III: baryon acoustic oscillations from galaxies and quasars

Jiaxi Yu, Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez, Antoine Philippe Jacques Rocher, Rafaela Gsponer

We present the DESI 2024 galaxy and quasar baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) measurements using over 5.7 million unique galaxy and quasar redshifts in the range 0.1 < z < 2.1. Divided by tracer type, we utilize 300,017 galaxies from the magnitude-limited ...

Rubies: Jwst/nirspec Confirmation of an Infrared-luminous, Broad-line Little Red Dot with an Ionized Outflow

Michaela Hirschmann

The JWST discovery of "little red dots" (LRDs) is reshaping our picture of the early Universe, yet the physical mechanisms driving their compact size and UV-optical colors remain elusive. Here, we report an unusually bright LRD (zspec = 3.1) observed as pa ...

The phase-space distribution of the M 81 satellite system

Oliver Müller, Nick Heesters

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and is independent of the internal baryonic processes of galaxies. Comoving pla ...

Dwarf galaxies as a probe of a primordially magnetized Universe

Yves Revaz, Salim Bennouna, Mahsa Sanati

Aims. The true nature of primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) and their role in the formation of galaxies remains elusive. To shed light on these unknowns, we investigated their impact by varying two sets of properties: (i) accounting for the effect of PMFs o ...

Advancements in Spectroscopic Surveys and Simulation Techniques in Physical Cosmology

Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez

The discovery of the Cosmic Microwave Background marked a pivotal moment in Physical Cosmology, propelling the field into an era of unprecedented precision in describing the Universe. Over the past two decades, rapid advancements in spectroscopic surveys h ...

Crimson Behemoth: A massive clumpy structure hosting a dusty AGN at z =4.91

Michaela Hirschmann

The current paradigm for the co-evolution of galaxies and their supermassive black holes postulates that dust-obscured active galactic nuclei (AGNs) represent a transitional phase towards a more luminous and unobscured state. However, our understanding of ...

Milky Way could invalidate the hypothesis of exotic matter and favor a gravitomagnetic solution to explain dark matter

Stéphane Jean Pierre Le Corre

We demonstrate a very general mathematical and physical expression of the rotation speed at the end of the galaxy (far from the vast majority of the galaxy’s baryonic mass) obtained from General Relativity without non-baryonic matter. We show the excellent ...
