23. Constraining the mass and redshift evolution of the hydrostatic mass bias using the gas mass fraction in galaxy clusters

Raphaël Wicker (Institut d'Astropysique Spatiale)

28/06/2023 13:50

The gas mass fraction in galaxy clusters is a convenient probe to use in cosmological studies, as it can help derive constraints on a collection of cosmological parameters.
It is however subject to various effects from the baryonic physics inside galaxy clusters, which may bias the obtained cosmological constraints.
Among different aspects of the baryonic physics, in this presentation I...

31. Probing the Ionized Gas Thermodynamics in unWISE Galaxies with the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich Effect

Aleksandra Kusiak (Columbia University)

The Sunyaev-Zel’dovich Effect—the Doppler boost of low-energy Cosmic Microwave Background photons scattering off free electrons—is an excellent probe of ionized gas residing in distant galaxies. Its two constituents are the kinematic SZ effect (kSZ), where electrons have a non-zero line-of-sight (LOS) velocity and which probes the electron line-of-sight momentum, and the thermal SZ effect...

24. An ALMA+ACA+ACT view on the z=2 galaxy cluster, XLSSC 122

Joshiwa van Marrewijk (European Southern Observatory (ESO))

In recent years there have been an increasing amount of studies on the overdensities of galaxies in the distant Universe, even beyond a redshift of z>4. However, how these so-called protoclusters evolve from a structure stretching several hundreds of Mpc to a bonafide galaxy cluster and how these distant clusters of galaxies differ from local ones are still open questions in modern...

56. Characterizing new low-z clusters with the CEREAL sample

Laurel White (MIT)

28/06/2023 14:50

In the coming years, we will use the latest generation of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) detectors to discover galaxy clusters at lower masses---and therefore higher redshifts---than ever before. These high-z, low-mass clusters are the progenitors of low-z, high-mass clusters, and follow-up X-ray observations will reveal insight into the origin and evolution of clusters. However, our understanding of...

29. Detection of forming intracluster gas in a galaxy protocluster at z~2.16

Luca Di Mascolo (Università degli Studi di Trieste)

28/06/2023 15:10

Until now, direct observations of the intracluster medium (ICM) have been limited only to mature clusters in the latter three-quarters of the history of the Universe, and we have been lacking a direct view of the hot, thermalised cluster atmosphere beyond z~2, the epoch when the first massive clusters formed. Probing the thermal evolution of cosmic structures through z~2 — the epoch when...

26. A HST dark galaxy merger at z~1 revealed by ALMA

Ivanna Langan (ESO (Garching))

28/06/2023 15:30

Galaxy mergers are known to be one of the major paths through which galaxies evolve across cosmic time, therefore it is absolutely necessary to study such systems at different redshifts to further our understanding of galaxy evolution. Significant progress has been made in the last decades thanks to HST, although a remaining challenge is the presence of obscuring dust, which can make one or...

62. Stellar and dust emission profiles of IMEGIN galaxies

Angelos Nersesian (Gent University)

28/06/2023 16:30

I will present a morphological analysis of a set of spiral galaxies from the NIKA2 Guaranteed Time Large Program, IMEGIN, by fitting simultaneously a single Sérsic model on broadband images, from UV to millimeter (mm) wavelengths, using the multiband modelling code GALFITM. With the recently acquired NIKA2 1.2- and 2-mm observations, it is possible to extend such a morphological analysis to...

39. Binary nature of supernovae type Ic revealed by molecular gas observations of nearby galaxies

Michał Michałowski (Adam Mickiewicz University)

28/06/2023 16:50

Supernova (SN) explosions are important for galaxy evolution because they enrich the interstellar medium with heavy elements and provide feedback which can halt further star formation. These effects depend on what stellar progenitors explode as a given SN type. Type Ic SNe (without hydrogen or helium lines in their spectra) can either be a binary system of ~10 solar mass stars or a very...

10. ICED: IAS/CEA Evolution of Dust in Nearby Galaxies

Lara Pantoni (CEA Paris-Saclay)

28/06/2023 17:10

Interstellar dust (ISD) grains are solid particles made of heavy elements (e.g., O, C, Si, Mg, Fe) available in the Interstellar Medium (ISM), with sizes ranging typically from 0.3 nm to 0.3 $\mu$m, and rather uniformly mixed with the gas. Although accounting just for 1% of the ISM mass, they have a radical impact on galaxy emission, since they scatter and absorb starlight, and re-radiate at...
