Description
The luminosity function of the globular cluster Palomar 1 is determined together with its confidence interval by applying an adaptive kernel estimator to data from the Isaac Newton Telescope. The luminosity function of Palomar 1 has two minima in the V band and one in the I band. The cluster core contains a relatively high fraction of bright stars, indicative of mass segregation.

    Infrared Spectroscopy of RNA Nucleosides in a Wide Range of Temperatures
    The RNA world hypothesis suggests that early cellular ancestors relied solely on RNA molecules for both genetic information storage and cellular functions. RNA, composed of four nucleosides—adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and uridine—forms the basis of this theory. These nucleosides consist of purine nucleobases, adenine and guanine, and pyrimidine

    ReveaLLAGN 0: First Look at JWST MIRI Data of Sombrero and NGC 1052
    We present the first results from the Revealing Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (ReveaLLAGN) survey, a JWST survey of seven nearby LLAGNs. We focus on two observations with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI)'s Medium-Resolution Spectrometer of the nuclei of NGC 1052 and Sombrero (NGC 4594/M104). We also compare these data to public JWST data

    Galaxy morphology from z ∼ 6 through the lens of JWST
    Context. The James Webb Space Telescope's (JWST's) unprecedented combination of sensitivity, spatial resolution, and infrared coverage has enabled a new era of galaxy morphology exploration across most of cosmic history. Aims: We analyze the near-infrared (NIR ∼ 0.8 − 1 μm) rest-frame morphologies of galaxies with log M */M ⊙ > 9 in the redshift
