Title:Seeking the Starlit Sky over the Moonbow
Abstract: “When you wish upon a star” sings a coqui frog where the stars filling the sky cast your shadow on the ground. That is where the Earth astronomers gather and strive to understand those stars seen and unseen. Each one of us with different background and skillsets can make a difference when working together to enhance such endeavor. As my last “talk story” at NAOJ, I would like to look back the changes the Japanese astronomy community has made and is going through. Naturally the emphasis is in the tools of the observations where I have had a fortune of hands-on experiences. And my parting word borrowed from the same song would be “anything your heart desires will come to you,” like how the way-finders of Hawai‘i say, even if the making of the segments for TMT is still underway.

Title:A voyage of discovery

Abstract: Along the last 30 years, I have been involved in many projects at
national, European and global levels. A personal voyage of discovery,
from my PhD on VLBI observations of maser emission, to the construction
of a 40-m radio telescope in Yebes, the direction of JIVE as central hub
of the European VLBI Network, to the set up of a Global VLBI Alliance.
Now back in Spain, taking care of European policy and research
infrastructures, at the Ministry of Science, Innovation and
Universities. All of it with a common background: love for knowledge and
international collaboration.

Title: Dust-obscured star formation of the UV-selected galaxies at high-z

Abstract:
Abstract: We present the recent study about the dust continuum emissions of UV-selected star-forming galaxies at z~5 and z~6. The datasets are mainly composed of two ALMA programs, the ALMA Cycle 8 large program CRISTAL for z~5 and the multi-band observation program SERENADE for z~6. By utilizing the combination of the identification of high-z galaxies with optical telescopes and the follow-up observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), we measured the statistical properties of the spectroscopically-confirmed galaxies at z=4-6.5. We constrained the obscured fraction of the star formation (fobs), defined as SFR[IR]/SFR[UV+IR], spatial extent of the dust continuum, IR luminosities, the dust temperature, and the dust-obscured star formation rate density. Our constraints on Mstar-fobs relation support that the obscured fraction at the range of Mstar<10^10Msun does not show clear evolution from z=0-2.5, but may decrease at the range of Mstar>10^10Msun. For an individual view, the spread from an average Mstar-fobs relation (Δfobs) shows a possible correlation with the compactness of SF region and the spatial offset between UV and dust continuum at z~5. Typical dust continuum sizes are ~1.5 kpc, and appear to be about two times more extended than the UV continuum. Our results show a lower IRX value by ~1 dex at βUV~0, and support the shallow IRX-βUV relation suggesting a good agreement with the metal-poor nature of the high-z galaxies. Estimated redshift evolution of Tdust with the combination of the analytical models and some observational constraints on the metallicity (Z) and gas depletion timescale (tgas) indicates the gentle increase of Tdust at high-z is naturally explained by an ~0.6 dex increase in tgas and ~0.4 dex decrease of Z. The dust-obscured star formation exhibits 40-150% star formation in the bright-UV galaxies (MUV<-20 mag) compared with the dust-unobscured star formation at z=5-6. The dust-obscured star formation may have an important role owing to their contribution to total SFRD.

Title: Formation of streamers by dense core collisions
Abstract:
Stars are formed by the gravitational contraction of dense cores in molecular clouds. In the classical model, a nearly axisymmetric core gravitationally collapses to form a disk around the protostar (e.g., Terebey et al. 1984). On the other hand, recent high-resolution observations of protostellar cores have often revealed non-axisymmetric, elongated flows of material falling into the disk, called streamers (Pineda et al. 2020; Valdivia-Mena et al. 2022). Per-emb-2 is a protostellar system located in the Perseus Molecular Cloud at 300 pc, and interferometric observations with ALMA and other instruments have revealed a large, carbon-chain molecule-rich streamer structure (Pineda et al. 2020). However, the origin of streamers is still unknown, and core collisions are one candidate. In this study, we investigate the collision process of cores using three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations and explore the formation process of non-axisymmetric streamers that appear in the circumstellar structure.

Title: The origin of extremely metal-poor star with weak r-process signature
Abstract:
The origin of the rapid neutron-capture process is a major question in astrophysics. The clue to answer this question is the chemical abundance patterns of metal-poor stars, which are believed to reflect the nucleosynthesis yields of a single event. Recent observations propose two r-process classes: the “main r-process” for light and heavy elements and the “weak r-process” for lighter ones. Aoki et al. (2017) suggested to use abundance ratios of first-peak neutron-capture elements (Sr-Ag) in metal-poor stars to identify the origin of weak r-process nucleosynthesis. However, their sample is not necessarily extremely metal-poor, and some contamination of main r-process, and even s-process, is suspected. To clarify the weak r-process’s pure abundance pattern, we studied the extremely metal-poor star SMSS J022423.27-573705.1, with a high lower limit on [Sr/Ba] ratio (Jacobson et al., 2015). Analyzing near UV spectrum data from the VLT/UVES, we measured 26 elemental abundances including first-peak neutron-capture elements and determine Ba abundance. We also compare our results with the latest nucleosynthesis models.

Title:天体観測に向けた深層学習に基づく大気揺らぎ抑制シングルピクセルイメージング

Abstract: 天体観測や防災用の遠隔監視の場面において,高精度なイメージングシステムの要求は高い.しかし,これらの場面では時間的に変動する不均一な空間位相分布である大気ゆらぎの影響をうけ,光波が乱れるため,精度が低下する課題ある.
 近年,一般的な二次元撮像素子と比べ耐ノイズ性に優れるイメージング技術であるSingle-Pixel Imaging(SPI)が注目されている.SPIは,対象物体の反射光もしくは透過光と符号化パターンとの光相関信号を用いて解析的あるいは統計的に像を再構成する手法であり,微弱光でのイメージングや光検出器の帯域を選択することで可視域外でのイメージングが可能である.
我々のグループでは,SPIの再構成過程にノイズ耐性向上のDeep Neural Network(DNN)を導入することで,大気揺らぎを抑制できることをシミュレーションおよび実験により示してきた.本講演では,天体観測に向けた深層学習に基づく大気揺らぎ抑制シングルピクセルイメージングの研究開発に関して,Kolmogorov乱流理論に則った大気ゆらぎの生成と本イメージングシステムにおける耐性効果の評価,大気ゆらぎなどの実問題に応用する際の学習コスト課題を抑制するDNNの提案と評価,天体望遠鏡への搭載に向けたSPI光学実験基盤等に関して紹介する。

Title: Origin of high-ionization lines found in extremely metal poor galaxies.
Abstract:
The extreme metal poor galaxies (EMPG) exhibit intense high-ionization emission lines, such as He II4686, unexplained by stellar synthesis models. Umeda et al. (2022) employed CLOUDY and MCMC to reproduce the observed spectrum, revealing an unidentified non-thermal radiation source. In this study, we introduce [Ne V]3426 emission (97.1 eV) and estimate spectral indices and luminosities for EMPGs in the 54.4-97.1 eV range. Confirming that non-thermal radiation dominates the 54.4-97.1 eV range for all the galaxies with [Ne V]3426 detections, we discuss the origin of the non-thermal radiation.

Title: Synthesis of Sc, Ti, and V in core-collapse supernovae
Abstract:
A supernova explosion is an explosive phenomenon that occurs at the end of the life of a massive star. However, the explosion mechanism has not yet been clarified. As a clue to investigate the explosion mechanism, we focused on nucleosynthesis. Metal-poor stars reflect the result of explosive nucleosynthesis in supernova explosions of first stars, and reproducing the chemical abundances of metal-poor stars is one of the important issues in the nucleosynthetic calculation. Recently correlations among Sc, Ti, and V are observationally identified.
Nevertheless, the abundances of Sc, Ti, and V in metal-poor stars have not been reproduced by nucleosynthesis calculations based on the results of hydrodynamical simulation. This is because one of the possible causes is that the explosion mechanism is not yet understood. Then, we attempted to constrain the explosion mechanism by (1) performing nucleosynthesis calculations with setting temperature, density, neutrino flux, etc. as parameters to find physical conditions which reproduce the observed chemical composition of metal-poor stars, and (2) examining the feasibility of these conditions by comparing them with 2D explosion simulations. In this talk, the progress of (1) and (2) will be discussed.

Title: Science Outreach in Ireland: Science Education at Birr Castle with I-LOFAR
Abstract: This tea-talk will talk a little bit about Ireland, and also about outreach there, broaching topics such as: who we target, how we target them, what activities and projects do we run, and adapting to Covid and a post-Covid world.

Bio: Séamus Duffy is a current research student at NAOJ working with the SCExAO team, focusing on applications of machine learning and AI to astronomy.
He originally came to Japan in 2017 and worked as an English teacher in Tokyo, where he stayed for four years before returning to Ireland in 2020. In Ireland he worked with the Technological University of the Shannon, Trinity College Dublin, and Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies as the education and engagement manager for the I-LOFAR project at Birr Castle, home of the Leviathan telescope. I-LOFAR is the Irish installation in the low frequency array, a radio telescope network which cover most of the European continent. He has a huge passion for teaching, outreach and inspiring younger minds to get involved with astronomy. During his time in outreach he worked to educate about I-LOFAR and the science being conducted at the telescope to the local population of Birr, local schools, businesses, and government officials. He was particularly interested in conducting outreach in a post-covid environment and utilising online and digital spaces for outreach programmes.

Title: Uncovering the Chemical Evolution of Galaxies from z=0–5 using the UniverseMachine
Abstract:
Cosmic baryon cycling is pivotal to galaxy evolution, and the amount of metals present in galaxies’ ISMs provides a key window into the gas cycling process. Recent JWST metallicity measurements and constraints on galaxy ISM masses have made it possible to recover the chemical evolution history of galaxies. In this talk, I present a novel empirical model that infers the average metallicity evolution of galaxies from redshift z=5 to z=0. Anchored in the UniverseMachine
(Behroozi+19) framework, our model converts observations of gas-phase metallicities across z=0—5 and galaxy ISM masses into constraints on the ISM return fraction, a key parameter quantifying the recycling of metals into the ISM versus expulsion into the CGM. I will show the initial results on how the ISM return fraction changes with mass and redshift.

Title: Neutrino Mass Hierarchy from Supernova Nucleosynthesis of Light Elements and the Roles of Unstable Nuclei
Abstract:
The origin of neutrino mass and mass hierarchy is one of the biggest unanswered questions in physics. In this talk I propose an astrophysical method so that the supernova (SN) ν-process nucleosynthesis, which is consistent with the mass hierarchy constrained from various ν-oscillation experiments, should provide independent observational signals of nucleosynthetic products in the specific nuclei such as 138La, 19F, 7Li, 11B and others (so-called ν nuclei) through the ν-flavor oscillation due to the MSW matter effect and the effect of collective oscillation [1].
Core-collapse SNe emits a huge number of neutrinos which bring valuable observational information on how the neutrinos propagate through the high-density matter and change their flavors and how explosive nucleosynthesis occurs. We found that the still unknown mass hierarchy is imprinted in the nucleosynthetic products of ν-nuclei [1,2]. In this talk, I will discuss the mechanism of SN ν-process nucleosynthesis and try to constrain the mass hierarchy by comparing our theoretical prediction of nuclear abundances and observed values in the meteorites and spectrascopy study. Among the calculated results, the abundance ratios of 11B/138La and 19F/16Oprovide exclusively sensitive probes to neutrino mass hierarchy [1]. These ratios are also influenced by the mass cut during the ejection phase of SN materials. These facts provide valuable quantitative tools to constrain the mass hierarchy through precise measurements of nuclear abundances of these ν-nuclei in SiC-X pre-solar grains and comprehensive studies of solar-system abundances.

Title:Neutrinos and gravity: multimessenger scenarios
Abstract:Multimessenger astronomy is developing rapidly, and neutrinos are major players in its vast landscape. It is hoped that, in the near future, experimental and theoretical developments will lead to the detection of neutrinos and gravitational waves from the same class of source. I discuss possible scenarios, involving neutrinos and gravitational waves from core collapse supernovae, and from binary mergers of matter-rich compact objects (for example, two neutron stars). I will also discuss tidal disruption events, where a star is torn apart and eventually accreted by a supermassive black hole. These events, which produce flares at infrared, optical and X-ray wavelengths, are sources of sub-Hz gravitational waves, and could emit very high energy neutrinos and cosmic rays. Emphasis will be placed on the feasibility and physics potential of future observations of neutrinos and other messengers from these diverse classes of emitters.
