JWST's TEMPLATES for Star Formation: The First Resolved Gas-Phase Metallicity Maps of Dust-Obscured Star-Forming Galaxies at 4
We present the first spatially resolved maps of gas-phase metallicity for
dust-obscured star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) at 4, from the JWST
TEMPLATES Early Release Science program, derived from NIRSpec integral field
unit spectroscopy of the H and [NII] emission lines. Empirically
derived literature optical line calibrations are used to determine that the
sources are highly metal rich, with both appearing to display regions of
supersolar metallicity, particularly in SPT2147-50. While we cannot rule out
shocks or AGN in these regions, we suggest that the two systems have already
undergone significant enrichment as a result of their extremely high
star-formation rates. Utilising ALMA rest-frame 380m continuum and
[CI](P-P) line maps we compare metallicity and gas-to-dust
ratio variations in the two galaxies, finding the two to be anticorrelated on
highly resolved spatial scales, consistent with various literature studies of
0 galaxies. The data are indicative of the enormous potential of
JWST to probe the enrichment of the interstellar medium on kpc scales in
extremely dust-obscured systems at 4 and beyond.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, submitted to Ap
JWST's TEMPLATES for Star Formation: The First Resolved Gas-phase Metallicity Maps of Dust-obscured Star-forming Galaxies at z ∼ 4
We present the first spatially resolved maps of gas-phase metallicity for two dust-obscured star-forming galaxies at z ∼ 4, from the JWST TEMPLATES Early Release Science program, derived from NIRSpec integral field unit spectroscopy of the Hα and [N ii] emission lines. Empirical optical line calibrations are used to determine that the sources are globally enriched to near-solar levels. While one source shows elevated [N ii]/Hα ratios and broad Hα emission consistent with the presence of an active galactic nucleus in a ≳1 kpc region, we argue that both systems have already undergone significant metal enrichment as a result of their extremely high star formation rates. Utilizing Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array rest-frame 380 μm continuum and [Ci](3P2–3P1) line maps we compare the spatial variation of the metallicity and gas-to-dust ratio in the two galaxies, finding the two properties to be anticorrelated on highly resolved spatial scales, consistent with various literature studies of z ∼ 0 galaxies. The data are indicative of the enormous potential of JWST to probe the enrichment of the interstellar medium on ∼kpc scales in extremely dust-obscured systems at z ∼ 4 and beyond
Macroeconomic policy change: Ireland in comparative perspective
This paper sets out to develop an improved framework for examining critical junctures. This a priori framework is a significant improvement over existing critical juncture frameworks that lack any predictive element. It is an advance for historical institutionalism in particular, and political science in general. After the new framework is set out in detail here, it is tested. The framework is used to examine a number of potential critical junctures in macroeconomic policy, drawn from Ireland, Sweden, Britain, and America in the latter half of the twentieth century
Echoes of time. The mobility of Brazilian researchers and students in Portugal
A investigação que apresentamos, de caráter exploratório, recaiu sobre histórias
biográficas de brasileiros que escolhem Portugal para prosseguir formação e
ou investigação. Procura-se encontrar na sua experiência elos de ligação explicativos
sobre as motivações e os processos que os trazem para Portugal, assim como
as expetativas e os projetos que comportam para os seus futuros e que incluem,
ou não, este país. Temos em conta, especialmente, a forma como essa narrativa
transporta sentidos identitários decorrentes das formas de relacionamento intercultural
e político entre Portugal e Brasil e formas de cooperação implícitas, assim
como mapas representacionais acerca dos lugares de eleição para desenvolvimento
de carreiras científicas e académicas. A nossa pesquisa incide sobre as informações
recolhidas através de um inquérito por questionário e entrevistas realizadas
junto de estudantes e bolseiros brasileiros em Portugal.We present an exploratory study that investigated biographical stories of
Brazilians who choose to continue their education or develop research in Portugal.
We sought to find in their experiences explanatory links connecting the
motivations and processes that bring them to Portugal, as well as the expectations
and projects that they hold for the future, which may include, or not, this country.
We take into account, particularly, the way this narrative carries senses of identity
arising from the forms of intercultural and political relationship between Portugal
and Brazil, as well as implicit forms of cooperation and representations about the
places chosen for the development of scientific and academic careers. Our research
draws on information collected through a survey based on questionnaires and
interviews with Brazilian students and scholarship holders in Portugal.(undefined
