    The Gould-Hopper Polynomials in the Novikov-Veselov equation

    Full text link
    We use the Gould-Hopper (GH) polynomials to investigate the Novikov-Veselov (NV) equation. The root dynamics of the σ\sigma-flow in the NV equation is studied using the GH polynomials and then the Lax pair is found. In particulr, when N=3,4,5N=3,4,5, one can get the Gold-fish model. The smooth rational solutions of the NV equation are also constructed via the extended Moutard transformation and the GH polynomials. The asymptotic behavior is discussed and then the smooth rational solution of the Liouville equation is obtained.Comment: 22 pages, no figur

    Darboux transformations for a 6-point scheme

    Full text link
    We introduce (binary) Darboux transformation for general differential equation of the second order in two independent variables. We present a discrete version of the transformation for a 6-point difference scheme. The scheme is appropriate to solving a hyperbolic type initial-boundary value problem. We discuss several reductions and specifications of the transformations as well as construction of other Darboux covariant schemes by means of existing ones. In particular we introduce a 10-point scheme which can be regarded as the discretization of self-adjoint hyperbolic equation

    Luminous infrared galaxies at high redshifts (zz>4) include extreme starbursts that build their stellar mass over short periods of time (>100 Myr). These galaxies are considered to be the progenitors of massive quiescent galaxies at intermediate redshifts (z∌z\sim2) but their stellar structure and buildup is unknown. Here, we present the first spatially resolved near-infrared imaging of GN20, one of the most luminous dusty star-forming galaxies known to date, observed at an epoch when the Universe was only 1.5 Gyr old. The 5.6ÎŒ\mum image taken with the JWST Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI/JWST) shows that GN20 is a very luminous galaxy (M1.1ÎŒm,AB_\mathrm{1.1\mu m,AB}=−-25.01), with a stellar structure composed of a conspicuous central source and an extended envelope. The central source is an unresolved nucleus that carries 9% of the total flux. The nucleus is co-aligned with the peak of the cold dust emission, and offset by 3.9 kpc from the ultraviolet stellar emission. The diffuse stellar envelope is similar in size to the clumpy CO molecular gas distribution. The centroid of the stellar envelope is offset by 1 kpc from the unresolved nucleus, suggesting GN20 is involved in an interaction or merger event supported by its location as the brightest galaxy in a proto-cluster. The stellar size of GN20 is larger by a factor of about 3-5 than known spheroids, disks, and irregulars at z∌z\sim4, while its size and low S\'ersic index are similar to those measured in dusty, infrared luminous galaxies at z∌z\sim2 of the same mass. GN20 has all the ingredients necessary for evolving into a massive spheroidal quiescent galaxy at intermediate zz: it is a large, luminous galaxy at zz=4.05 involved in a short and massive starburst centred in the stellar nucleus and extended over the entire galaxy, out to radii of 4 kpc, and likely induced by the interaction or merger with a member of the proto-cluster.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figure

    Strong (Hb + [OIII]) and Ha emitters at redshift z ~ 7-8 unveiled with JWST/NIRCam and MIRI imaging in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (XDF)

    The JWST is revolutionizing the study of high-redshift galaxies by providing for the first time a high-sensitivity view of the early Universe at infrared wavelengths, both with its Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and Mid Infrared Instrument (MIRI). In this paper, we make use of medium and broad-band NIRCam imaging, as well as ultra-deep MIRI 5.6 microns imaging, in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (XDF) to identify prominent line emitters at z ~ 7-8. Out of a total of 58 galaxies at z ~ 7-8, we find 18 robust candidates (~31%) for prominent (Hb + [OIII]) emitters, based on their enhanced fluxes in the F430M and F444W filters, with rest-frame EW(Hb + [OIII]) ~ 87 - 2100 A. Among these emitters, 16 lie on the MIRI coverage area and 12 show a clear flux excess at 5.6 microns, indicating the simultaneous presence of a prominent Ha emission line with rest-frame EW(Ha) ~ 200 - 3000 A. This is the first time that Ha emission can be detected in individual galaxies at z>7. The Ha line, when present, allows us to separate the contributions of the Hb and [OIII] emission lines to the (Hb + [OIII]) complex and derive Ha-based star formation rates (SFRs). We find that in some cases [OIII]/Hb > 1, suggesting low metallicities, but a few have [OIII]/Hb < 1, so the NIRCam flux excess is mainly driven by Hb. The vast majority of prominent line emitters are very young starbursts or galaxies on their way to/from the starburst cloud. They make for a cosmic SFR density log10(SFRD_Ha / Msun yr^-1 Mpc^-3) ~ 2.35, which is about a third of the total value at z ~ 7-8. Therefore, the strong Ha emitters likely had an important role in reionization.Comment: 15 pages, 9 figures. Submitted to Ap

    Darboux transformations for linear operators on two dimensional regular lattices

    Full text link
    Darboux transformations for linear operators on regular two dimensional lattices are reviewed. The six point scheme is considered as the master linear problem, whose various specifications, reductions, and their sublattice combinations lead to other linear operators together with the corresponding Darboux transformations. The second part of the review deals with multidimensional aspects of (basic reductions of) the four point scheme, as well as the three point scheme.Comment: 23 pages, 3 figures, presentation improve

    MIDIS:Strong (HÎČ+[O iii]) and Hα Emitters at Redshift z ≃ 7-8 Unveiled with JWST NIRCam and MIRI Imaging in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field

    We make use of JWST medium-band and broadband NIRCam imaging, along with ultradeep MIRI 5.6 ÎŒm imaging, in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field to identify prominent line emitters at z ≃ 7-8. Out of a total of 58 galaxies at z ≃ 7-8, we find 18 robust candidates (≃31%) for (HÎČ + [O iii]) emitters, based on their enhanced fluxes in the F430M and F444W filters, with EW0(HÎČ +[O iii]) ≃87-2100 Å. Among these emitters, 16 lie in the MIRI coverage area and 12 exhibit a clear flux excess at 5.6 ÎŒm, indicating the simultaneous presence of a prominent Hα emission line with EW0(Hα) ≃200-3000 Å. This is the first time that Hα emission can be detected in individual galaxies at z &gt; 7. The Hα line, when present, allows us to separate the contributions of HÎČ and [O iii] to the (HÎČ +[O iii]) complex and derive Hα-based star formation rates (SFRs). We find that in most cases [O iii]/HÎČ &gt; 1. Instead, two galaxies have [O iii]/HÎČ &lt; 1, indicating that the NIRCam flux excess is mainly driven by HÎČ. Most prominent line emitters are very young starbursts or galaxies on their way to/from the starburst cloud. They make for a cosmic SFR density log 10 ( ρ SFR H α / ( M ⊙ yr − 1 Mpc − 3 ) ) ≃ − 2.35 , which is about a quarter of the total value ( log 10 ( ρ SFR tot / ( M ⊙ yr − 1 Mpc − 3 ) ) ≃ − 1.76 ) at z ≃ 7-8. Therefore, the strong Hα emitters likely had a significant role in reionization.</p

    MIDIS: Unveiling the Role of Strong Ha-emitters during the Epoch of Reionization with JWST

    International audienceWe make use of the deepest JWST/MIRI image at 5.6 um, obtained in the Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (XDF), to constrain the role of strong Ha emitters (HAEs) in Cosmic Reionization at z~7-8. Our sample of bright (M(UV) < -20 mag) HAEs is comprised of young (<30 Myr) galaxies with low stellar masses (<= 10^9 Msun). They span a wide range of UV-beta slopes, with a median beta = -2.22+-0.35, which broadly correlates with stellar mass. We estimate the ionizing photon production efficiency (xi_ion,0) of these sources (assuming f_esc,LyC = 0), which yields a median value log10(xi_ion,0/(Hz erg^(-1))) = 25.54(+0.09, -0.10). We show that xi_ion,0 positively correlates with EW0(Ha) and specific star formation rate (sSFR). Instead xi_ion,0 weakly anti-correlates with stellar mass and beta. Based on the beta values, we estimate f_esc,LyC=0.07(+0.03, -0.02), which results in log10(xi_ion/(Hz erg^(-1))) = 25.59 (+0.06, -0.04). By considering this result along with others from the literature, we find a mild evolution of xi_ion with redshift. Finally, we assess the impact of strong HAEs during Cosmic Reionization at z~7-8. We find that our HAEs do not need high values of f_esc, rel (only 6-10%) to be able to reionize their surrounding intergalactic medium. They have N_dot_ion = 10^(50.43+-0.3) s^(-1)Mpc^(-3) and contribute more than a factor of two in terms of emitted ionizing photons per comoving volume compared to non-Ha emitters in the same redshift bin, suggesting that strong, young, and low stellar-mass emitters could have played a central role during the Epoch of Reionization
