PHANGS–JWST First Results: The 21 μm Compact Source Population

We use PHANGS–James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) data to identify and classify 1271 compact 21 μ m sources in four nearby galaxies using MIRI F2100W data. We identify sources using a dendrogram-based algorithm, and we measure the background-subtracted flux densities for JWST bands from 2 to 21 μ m. U...
