Proud to finally see our group's work out there! Among other things, the highest redshift SN Ia known at z=2.9! Plenty more where this came from. webbtelescope.org/contents/news-…
Big paper splash. New era in high-z transients begins. We use #JWST to find >40 SNe with redshifts 2<z<5...inc. spectra! 3 papers led by *early career researchers*. #AAS244 1/n DeCoursey+ arxiv.org/abs/2406.05060 Pierel+ arxiv.org/abs/2406.05089 Siebert+ arxiv.org/abs/2406.05076
Emerging from twitter dormancy to say our #JWSTCycle3 proposal was accepted! Along with a few others as Co-I. Honestly cant believe it!
🆕 The @RoyalAstroSoc has awarded the 2024 Group Achievement Award in Astronomy to the team responsible for designing and building Webb’s MIRI instrument! 🎉 Read more: esawebb.org/announcements/… or 🧵👇
Thanks @RoyalAstroSoc for the recognition of our team’s work over many years. Delighted and honoured to be part of it 🥂🎉

🚨 It's paper day!!! Super excited to share our Keck/DEIMOS survey of z > 3 Lyman-alpha emitters in the EGS! arxiv.org/abs/2307.04782
#NASAWebb researchers have made major strides in confirming the source of dust in the early universe with observations of two dying stars (supernovas!): webbtelescope.pub/3CRzTnL
I’m back on LEGO Ideas! 😁 Cast your vote to help make me a real #LEGO set. bit.ly/legojwst Hoping third time’s the charm! 🤞#JWST
The spanish orcas have formed an alliance with the scottish orcas. Its only a matter of time until a full cetacean war on yachts begins. Thankfully the blue whales remain neutral, for now...
There were 17 (seventeen!) transients, likely supernovae, found in this data, ranging from z~0.5 to z~2.8! Well done to Christa DeCoursey and the rest of the JADES team on their work. See their Astronote here: wis-tns.org/astronotes/ast…
You're looking at 45,000+ galaxies. This image was taken as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) — a massive science program that’s revolutionizing what we know about galaxies in the early universe: go.nasa.gov/3CdLq0s Here are the highlights ⬇️
Joining the follow-up party! SN 2023ixf is one of the closest supernovae ever found, located in an arm of the Pinwheel Galaxy, M101. We are getting some gorgeous images with the FLWO-48". Thanks Allyson Bieryla and Daichi Hiramatsu for coordinating these observations! #SN2023ixf
One of the JWST programs for which I am a Co-I was accepted! Otherwise I went 1/9 🙃
