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

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 ( ...

A Highly Magnified Gravitationally Lensed Red QSO at z = 2.5 with a Significant Flux Ratio Anomaly

Hung-Hsu Chan

We present the discovery of a gravitationally lensed dust-reddened QSO at z = 2.517, identified in a survey for QSOs by infrared selection. Hubble Space Telescope imaging reveals a quadruply lensed system in a cusp configuration, with a maximum image separ ...

Next-generation brain observatories

Mackenzie Mathis, Shreya Saxena

We propose centralized brain observatories for large-scale recordings of neural activity in mice and non-human primates coupled with cloud-based data analysis and sharing. Such observatories will advance reproducible systems neuroscience and democratize ac ...

The e-MERGE Survey (e-MERLIN Galaxy Evolution Survey): overview and survey description

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cole Stewart Simpson, Mark Thomas Sargent

We present an overview and description of the e-MERGE Survey (e-MERLIN Galaxy Evolution Survey) Data Release 1 (DR1), a large program of high-resolution 1.5-GHz radio observations of the GOODS-N field comprising similar to 140 h of observations with enhanc ...

A complete census of Herschel-detected infrared sources within the HST Frontier Fields

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Johan Richard

We present a complete census of all Herschel-detected sources within the six massive lensing clusters of the HST Frontier Fields (HFF). We provide a robust legacy catalogue of 263 sources with Herschel fluxes, primarily based on imaging from the Herschel L ...

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies

Thomas Günther Bretz

We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for gamma-ray signals from dark matter annihilation in dwarf satellite galaxies. We combine 158 hours of Segue 1 ob ...

Interaction between the Lower Hybrid wave and density fluctuations in the scrape-off layer

Joan Decker

In the present paper, the perturbation of the launched power spectrum of the Lower Hybrid wave at the separatrix by electron density fluctuations in the scrape-off layer is investigated. Considering a slab geometry with magnetic field lines parallel to the ...

SALSA: a tool to estimate the stray light contamination for low-Earth orbit observatories

Thibault Adrien Kuntzer

Stray light contamination reduces considerably the precision of photometric of faint stars for low altitude space-borne observatories. When measuring faint objects, the necessity of coping with stray light contamination arises in order to avoid systematic ...

Potential of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing telescope for the search for dark matter

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy

Large observatory for x-ray timing (LOFT) is a concept of a next-generation x-ray telescope considered in the context of the "Cosmic Vision" program of the European Space Agency. The Large Area Detector on board of LOFT will be a collimator-type telescope ...

The first Frontier Fields cluster: 4.5 mu m excess in a z similar to 8 galaxy candidate in Abell 2744

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Johan Richard

Aims. We present in this letter the first analysis of a: 8 galaxy candidate found in the Hubble and Spitzer imaging data of Abell 2744 as part of the Hubble Frontier Fields legacy program. Methods. We applied the most commonly used methods to select except ...

HerMES: a deficit in the surface brightness of the cosmic infrared background due to galaxy cluster gravitational lensing

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huu Tuan Nguyen, Johan Richard

We have observed four massive galaxy clusters with the SPIRE instrument on the Herschel Space Observatory and measure a deficit of surface brightness within their central region after removing detected sources. We simulate the effects of instrumental sensi ...

The simultaneous low state spectral energy distribution of 1ES 2344+514 from radio to very high energies

Thomas Günther Bretz

Context. BL Lacertae objects are variable at all energy bands on time scales down to minutes. To construct and interpret their spectral energy distribution (SED), simultaneous broad-band observations are mandatory. Up to now, the number of objects studied ...

Searching for dark matter in X-rays: how to check the dark matter origin of a spectral feature

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy

A signal from decaying dark matter (DM) can be unambiguously distinguished from spectral features of astrophysical or instrumental origin by studying its spatial distribution. We demonstrate this approach by examining the recent claim of Loewenstein and Ku ...

Long-Term Monitoring Of Bright Blazars With A Dedicated Cherenkov Telescope

Mathieu Ribordy, Werner Lustermann, Thomas Günther Bretz

Flaring activity of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in VHE gamma-ray astronomy is observed on timescales from minutes to years and can be explained either by the interaction of relativistic jets with the surrounding material or by imprints of the central engi ...
