  • Measuring the Intracluster Light Fraction with Machine Learning
    The intracluster light (ICL) is an important tracer of a galaxy cluster's history and past interactions. However, only small samples have been studied to date due to its very low surface brightness and the heavy manual involvement required for the majority of measurement algorithms. Upcoming large imaging surveys such as the Vera C. Rubin

  • Mapping dusty galaxy growth at z > 5 with FRESCO: detection of Hα in submm galaxy HDF850.1 and the surrounding overdense structures
    We report the detection of a 13 $\sigma$ H $\alpha$ emission line from HDF850.1 at $z=5.188\pm 0.001$ using the FRESCO (First Reionization Era Spectroscopically Complete Observations) NIRCam F444W grism observations. Detection of H $\alpha$ in HDF850.1 is noteworthy, given its high far-infrared (IR) luminosity, substantial dust obscuration, and the

  • Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS): Exploring the nature of ultra-diffuse galaxies in the Hydra-I cluster: II. Stellar kinematics and dynamical masses
    Context. This paper focuses on a class of galaxies characterised by an extremely low surface brightness: ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). We used new integral-field (IF) spectroscopic data, obtained with the ESO Large Programme Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS). It provides the first homogeneous IF spectroscopic survey performed by MUSE at

  • LensWatch. II. Improved Photometry and Time-delay Constraints on the Strongly Lensed Type Ia Supernova 2022qmx ("SN Zwicky") with Hubble Space Telescope Template Observations
    Strongly lensed supernovae (SNe) are a rare class of transient that can offer tight cosmological constraints that are complementary to methods from other astronomical events. We present a follow-up study of one recently discovered strongly lensed SN, the quadruply imaged type Ia SN 2022qmx (aka "SN Zwicky"), at z = 0.3544. We measure updated

  • Irradiation origin and stability of CO on trans-Neptunian objects: Laboratory constraints and observational evidence from JWST/DiSCo-TNOs
    Context. The James Webb Space Telescope large program DiSCo-TNOs has recently shown that CO 2 ice is ubiquitous on 54 mediumsize trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs). TNO surfaces are found to define three main spectral and thus compositional groups that are likely linked to their position before planetary migration. CO ice is observed on the spectral

  • Intervening nuclear obscuration changing the X-ray look of the z ≈ 6 quasi-stellar object CFHQS J164121+375520
    X-ray observations of the optically selected z = 6.025 quasi-stellar object (QSO) CFHQS J164121+375520 (hereafter J1641) revealed that its flux dropped by a factor of ≳7 between 2018, when it was a bright and soft X-ray source, and 2021. Such a strong variability amplitude has not been observed before among z > 6 QSOs, and the underlying physical
