We present the stellar calibrator sample and the conversion from instrumental to physical units for the 24 micron channel of the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS). The primary calibrators are A stars, and the calibration…
A photometric study of 22 disk galaxies at redshifs z=0.5-2.6 is conducted, using deep NICMOS J and H band and STIS open mode observations of the HDF-S NICMOS parallel field. Rest-frame B-profiles and (U-V) color profiles are constructed. A…
We describe a standard star catalog constructed using multiple SDSS photometric observations (at least four per band, with a median of ten) in the $ugriz$ system. The catalog includes 1.01 million non-variable unresolved objects from the…
We present JWST NIRSpec spectroscopy for 11 galaxy candidates with photometric redshifts of $z\simeq9-13$ and $M_{\rm\,UV} \in[-21,-18]$ newly identified in NIRCam images in the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey. We…
Stellar photometric variability offers a novel probe of the interior structure and evolutionary state of stars. Here we present a census of stellar variability on day to decade timescales across the color-magnitude diagram for 73,000 stars…
Fifty-one dense cores associated with water masers were mapped at 350 micron. These cores are very luminous, 10^3 < Lbol/Lsun < 10^6, indicative of the formation of massive stars. Dust continuum contour maps and photometry are presented for…
Selecting the first galaxies at z>7-10 from JWST surveys is complicated by z<6 contaminants with degenerate photometry. For example, strong optical nebular emission lines at z<6 may mimic JWST/NIRCam photometry of z>7-10 Lyman Break…
We study zCOSMOS-bright optical spectra for 609 Spitzer/MIPS 24 micron-selected galaxies with S(24um)> 0.30 mJy and I<22.5 (AB mag) over 1.5 sq. deg. of the COSMOS field. From emission-line diagnostics we find that: 1) star-formation rates…
We present stellar atmosphere modeling of JWST NIRCam photometry of nine highly magnified individual stars in a single galaxy at redshift z=0.94 known as the Warhol arc, which is strongly lensed by the galaxy cluster MACSJ0416. Seven of…
In this paper, we discuss measurements of the stellar population and star forming properties for 43 spectroscopically confirmed publicly available high-redshift $z > 7$ JWST galaxies in the JADES and CEERS observational programs. We carry…
Detecting Population III (Pop. III) stars remains a major observational challenge. Their Balmer series recombination line emission, redshifted into the infrared at $z \sim 5-11$, is a potential tracer. JWST/NIRSpec offers the first…
Accurately quantifying the rates dM/dt at which massive stars lose mass is essential to any understanding of their evolution. All dM/dt estimates to date assume wind clumping factors; not allowing for clumping leads to overestimates of…
The Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) will revolutionize the study of dust-obscured star formation in distant galaxies. Although deep images from the Multiband Imaging Photometer for SIRTF (MIPS) will provide coverage at 24, 70, and…
We use the radiation transfer simulation of Xilouris et al. (1999) to constrain the quantity of dust in three nearby spiral galaxies (NGC 4013, NGC 5907 and NGC 891). The predicted visual optical depth from the model is compared with the…
Galaxy morphology is one of the most fundamental ways to describe galaxy properties, but the morphology we observe may be affected by wavelength and spatial resolution, which may introduce systematic bias when comparing galaxies at…
During an XMM-Newton observation of the galactic supernova remnant G21.5-09 a bright, previously uncatalogued, source (XMMU J183225.4-103645) was detected 18 arcmin from G21.5-09. The European Photon Imaging Camera data inside 1 arcmin…
This paper provides an overview of the PACS photometer flux calibration concept, in particular for the principal observation mode, the scan map. The absolute flux calibration is tied to the photospheric models of five fiducial stellar…
We analyze eight spectroscopically confirmed Little Red Dots (LRDs) at redshifts $z = 5.1-8.7$ with JWST/NIRCam, NIRSpec, and MIRI data. The LRDs have red NIRCam colors, F150W-F444W $>$ 1, but flat NIRCam-MIRI colors, $-0.5 < \mathrm{F444W…
We present a spatially resolved analysis of four star-forming galaxies at $z = 4.44-5.64$ using data from the JWST PRIMER and ALMA-CRISTAL surveys to probe the stellar and inter-stellar medium properties on the sub-kpc scale. In the…
The mid-infrared spectra (2.5 to 5 and 5.7 to 11.6 mu) obtained by ISO-PHOT reveal the interstellar medium emission from galaxies powered by star formation to be strongly dominated by the aromatic features at 6.2, 7.7, 8.6 and 11.3 mu.…
