Talk — Quantifying the energy balance between the ionized ISM and massive stars with MUSE and HST
Oleg Egorov (Zentrum für Astronomie Heidelberg)
View Abstract
Abstract
Massive stars in star-forming regions inject huge amounts of energy and momentum into the ISM producing ubiquitous superbubbles, turbulent gas motions and outflows. The coupling efficiency of stellar feedback and its dependence on metallicity remains uncertain in simulations. Analysing the MUSE and HST observations from the PHANGS survey, we identified about 1500 expanding superbubbles and regions with local turbulent gas motions and linked them to the young star clusters. This allowed us to measure the coupling efficiency of mechanical stellar feedback and how it depends on the metallicity directly from the observations. In my talk, I will overview the current state of the PHANGS survey and focus on the measurements of the energy balance between massive stars and the ionized ISM in 19 nearby galaxies.

Talk — Local Volume Mapper (SDSS-V): The current status of the project and Early Science results
Evgeniya Egorova (Heidelberg)
View Abstract
Abstract
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) Local Volume Mapper (LVM) is a new optical integral field unit (IFU) that will map the ionized gas within the Milky Way and Local Group galaxies, covering 4300 square degrees of the sky with the new LVM Instrument (LMV-I). I will overview the project and its current status, and present some of the Early Science results obtained so far.

Talk — Multimessenger astrophysics
Alessandro de Angelis
View Abstract
Abstract
In recent years, cosmic rays have become the protagonists of a new scientific revolution. We are able today to film the Universe with telescopes of novel conception, recording information complementary to optical astronomy from many different messengers. This seminar is a travel in the world of cosmic rays, their production from powerful accelerators close to the surfaces of compact objects, reaching the highest levels of energy observed in nature, and the implications for our understanding of the Universe, and a state-of-the-art introduction to multimessenger astrophysics.
Alessandro De Angelis is a high-energy physicist and astrophysics, who conceived and implemented with NASA and the Max-Planck Institute for Physics in Munich experiments for the study of cosmic rays. Graduated from the University of Padua and later a CERN member, De Angelis is Professor of Experimental Physics at the Universities of Padua and Lisbon and Scientific Counsellor of the Italian Permanent Delegation to the International Organizations in Paris. Besides numerous scientific articles and textbooks on Astroparticle Physics, he has published three popular books on Galilei and the history of science in the Renaissance.
De Angelis's visit to Chile was made possible thanks to the invitation made by the Departamento de Ingeniería Industrial de la USACH for the inauguration of two major programs: the Cátedra Galileo Galilei and the Progama OMNIA.

Talk — MOONS the next large MOS on the VLT
Martin Black & Peter Hammersley (UK ATC & ESO)
View Abstract
Abstract
MOONS is a 0.8–1.8-μm multi-object spectrometer designed to work at the Nasmyth focus of the VLT’s UT1. It will have 944 fibres patrolling a field 25 arcminutes in diameter. MOONS can be used with a spectroscopic resolving power R ~ 4000 spanning the full near-infrared wavelength range, or with R ~ 9000 in the I band and R ~ 18 000 in the H band. MOONS has two main sub-components, the rotating front end (which is at the focal plane and houses the fibre positioners, the acquisition system and the metrology system for the fibres) and the cryogenic spectrographs, which will be on the telescope’s Nasmyth platform. MOONS is now fully assembled at the UK-ATC, Edinburgh. PAE is expected this summer and it will arrive at Paranal by the end of the year. This talk will cover the science drivers behind the instrument and its current status.

Talk — The origins of the first mass extinction event
Michaël Marsset (ESO Vitacura)
View Abstract
Abstract
Studies of micrometeorites in mid-Ordovician limestones and Earth’s impact craters show that our planet witnessed a massive infall of ordinary L chondrite material ~466 million years ago that it believed to be at the origin of the first major mass extinction event (Schmitz et al. 2019). The breakup of a large asteroid in the main belt is the likely cause of this massive infall. In modern times, material originating from this breakup still dominates meteorite falls (~37% of all falls). I will present spectroscopic observations and dynamical evidence that we have identified the only plausible source of this catastrophic event and of the most abundant class of meteorites falling on Earth today.
