The Convergence of Heavy and Light Seeds to Overmassive Black Holes at Cosmic Dawn

Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | First 5 Authors: Haojie Hu, Kohei Inayoshi, Zoltan Haiman, Luis C. Ho, Ken Ohsuga | Summary: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at redshifts of $zgtrsim 4-7$, many of which host accreting massive black holes (BHs) with BH-to-galaxy mass ($M_{rm BH}/M_{star}$) ratios exceeding […]

Medium-band Astrophysics with the Grism of NIRCam In Frontier fields (MAGNIF): Spectroscopic Census of H$α$ Luminosity Functions and Cosmic Star Formation at $zsim 4.5$ and 6.3

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Shuqi Fu, Fengwu Sun, Linhua Jiang, Xiaojing Lin, Jose M. Diego | Summary: We measure H$alpha$ luminosity functions (LFs) at redshifts $z sim 4.5$ and 6.3 using the JWST MAGNIF (Medium-band Astrophysics with the Grism of NIRCam In Frontier fields) survey. MAGNIF obtained NIRCam grism spectra with […]

The Optical and Infrared Are Connected

Kavli Affiliate: David Spergel | Summary:Galaxies are often modelled as composites of separable components with distinct spectral signatures, implying that different wavelength ranges are only weakly correlated. They are not. We present a data-driven model which exploits subtle correlations between physical processes to accurately predict infrared (IR) WISE photometry from a neural summary of optical […]

Trial by FIRE: Probing the dark matter density profile of dwarf galaxies with GraphNPE

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | Summary:The Dark Matter (DM) distribution in dwarf galaxies provides crucial insights into both structure formation and the particle nature of DM. GraphNPE (Graph Neural Posterior Estimator), first introduced in Nguyen et al. (2023), is a novel simulation-based inference framework that combines graph neural networks and normalizing flows to infer the […]

The Dust Polarisation and Magnetic Field Structure in the Centre of NGC253 with ALMA

Kavli Affiliate: Rodriguez Enrique Lopez | Summary:Magnetic fields have an impact on galaxy evolution at multiple scales. They are particularly important for starburst galaxies, where they play a crucial role in shaping the interstellar medium (ISM), influencing star formation processes and interacting with galactic outflows. The primary aim of this study is to obtain a […]

Photometric-Metallicity and Distance Estimates for $sim$70,000 RR Lyrae Stars from the Zwicky Transient Facility

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | Summary:Utilizing Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) data and existing RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) catalogs, this study achieves the first calibration of the $P – φ_31 – R_21 – text[Fe/H]$ and $P-φ_31-A_2-A_1-text[Fe/H]$ relations in the ZTF photometric system for RRab and RRc stars. We also re-calibrate the period-absolute magnitude-metallicity (PMZ) and period-Wesenheit-metallicity […]
