The Star Formation History and Evolution of the Ultra-Diffuse M81 Satellite F8D1

Abstract We present deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of one of the nearest ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) outside of the Local Group: F8D1, a satellite of M81 known to be tidally disrupting. UDGs are an enigmatic and diverse population, with evolutionary pathways ranging...

Testing electron–photon exchange–correlation functional performance for many-electron systems under weak and strong light–matter coupling

We present results for a photon-free exchange–correlation functional within the local density approximation (pxcLDA) for quantum electrodynamics density functional theory (QEDFT), which efficiently describes the electron density of many-electron systems across weak to strong ligh...

Non-ideal MHD and protostellar feedback effects on disk formation and evolution in numerical simulations of star cluster formation

Abstract While recent surveys have resolved hundreds of nearby protostellar disks, numerical simulations assuming ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) have historically struggled to achieve disk formation due to efficient angular momentum removal by magnetic torques. Non-ideal MHD ef...
