Velocity Structure Correlations between the Nebular, Molecular, and Atmospheric Gases in the Cores of Four Cool Core Clusters. Astrophysical Journal, 984(1), Article 22. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/adc102

We investigate the velocity structure of nebular gas in the central galaxies of four clusters: Abell 1835, PKS 0745-191, Abell 262, and RXJ0820.9+0752, using data from the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI). Velocity structure functions (VSFs) of the [OII... Read More about Velocity Structure Correlations between the Nebular, Molecular, and Atmospheric Gases in the Cores of Four Cool Core Clusters.

Constraints on dark photon dark matter from Lyman-alpha forest simulations and an ultra-high signal-to-noise quasar spectrum (2025)
Journal Article
Andrea, T., James S., B., Andrea, C., Hongwan, L., Stefano, C., & Matteo, V. (in press). Constraints on dark photon dark matter from Lyman-alpha forest simulations and an ultra-high signal-to-noise quasar spectrum. Physical Review D, 111, Article 083034. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.111.083034

The ultralight dark photon is a well-motivated, hypothetical dark matter candidate. In a dilute plasma, they can resonantly convert into photons, and heat up the intergalactic medium between galaxies. In this work, we explore the dark photon dark mat...

Insights into environmental quenching at z ∼ 1: an enhancement of faint, low-mass passive galaxies in clusters (2025)
Journal Article
Gully, H., Hatch, N., Ahad, S. L., Bahé, Y., Balogh, M., Baxter, D. C., Cerulo, P., Cooper, M. C., Demarco, R., Forrest, B., Rescigno, U., Rudnick, G., Vulcani, B., & Wilson, G. (2025). Insights into environmental quenching at z ∼ 1: an enhancement of faint, low-mass passive galaxies in clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Article staf635. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staf635

Understanding the processes that transform star-forming galaxies into quiescent ones is key to unraveling the role of environment in galaxy evolution. We present measurements of the luminosity functions (LFs) and stellar mass functions (SMFs) of pass...

No evidence for excess AGN activity in recently quenched massive galaxies at cosmic noon (2025)
Journal Article

We present an analysis of AGN activity within recently quenched massive galaxies at cosmic noon (𝑧 ∼ 2), using deep Chandra X-ray observations of the Ultra-Deep Survey (UDS) field. Our sample includes over 4000 massive galaxies (𝑀∗ > 10^10.5 M⊙) in t... Read More about No evidence for excess AGN activity in recently quenched massive galaxies at cosmic noon.

Intracluster light is a biased tracer of the dark matter distribution in clusters (2025)
Journal Article
Butler, J., Martin, G., Hatch, N., Pearce, F., Brough, S., & Dubois, Y. (2025). Intracluster light is a biased tracer of the dark matter distribution in clusters. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Article staf615. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staf615

The diffuse stellar component of galaxy clusters known as intracluster light (ICL) has been proposed as an observable tracer of the cluster’s dark matter (DM) halo. Assessing its reliability as a DM tracer requires understanding how the intracluster... Read More about Intracluster light is a biased tracer of the dark matter distribution in clusters.
