Daily News | Observations from Villanova’s confident win over DePaul
In the first 20 minutes against DePaul, Villanova showed both why the Wildcats are under .500 and just how good it can be when everything clicks.
On Wednesday, they hit the five minute mark up seven. They finished the game on an 11-0 run, making five of their last eight field goals.“We played harder for longer,” head coach Kyle Neptune said. “Past games, we might have given 25, 30 [minutes]. I thought today, I can’t say [we played] a full 40, but maybe, 34, 35.”
Villanova’s increased intensity was clearest on the defensive end. It was the Blue Demons who made just one field goal over the final five minutes, missing their final six attempts.La Salle wins third in a row, Temple drops second straight, while St. Joe’s, Nova win bigThe late run was led by veterans. Graduate guard Caleb Daniels hit consecutive attempts from three to help the Wildcats break away.
“I’m very biased, but when healthy, in my mind, he’s one of the best players in the country,” Neptune said. “You add that to a lineup, that helps everybody.”

First Observations of the Brown Dwarf HD 19467 B with JWSTWe observed HD 19467 B with JWST's NIRCam in six filters spanning 2.5-4.6 $μm$ with the Long Wavelength Bar coronagraph. The brown dwarf HD 19467 B was initially identified through a long-period trend in the radial velocity of G3V star HD 19467. HD 19467 B was subsequently detected via coronagraphic imaging and spectroscopy, and characterized as a late-T type brown dwarf with approximate temperature $\sim1000$K. We observed HD 19467 B as a part of the NIRCam GTO science program, demonstrating the first use of the NIRCam Long Wavelength Bar coronagraphic mask. The object was detected in all 6 filters (contrast levels of $2\times10^{-4}$ to $2\times10^{-5}$) at a separation of 1.6 arcsec using Angular Differential Imaging (ADI) and Synthetic Reference Differential Imaging (SynRDI). Due to a guidestar failure during acquisition of a pre-selected reference star, no reference star data was available for post-processing. However, RDI was successfully applied using synthetic Point Spread Functions (PSFs) developed from contemporaneous maps of the telescope's optical configuration. Additional radial velocity data (from Keck/HIRES) are used to constrain the orbit of HD 19467 B. Photometric data from TESS are used to constrain the properties of the host star, particularly its age. NIRCam photometry, spectra and photometry from literature, and improved stellar parameters are used in conjunction with recent spectral and evolutionary substellar models to derive physical properties for HD 19467 B. Using an age of 9.4$\pm$0.9 Gyr inferred from spectroscopy, Gaia astrometry, and TESS asteroseismology, we obtain a model-derived mass of 62$\pm 1M_{J}$, which is consistent within 2-$σ$ with the dynamically derived mass of 81$^{+14}_{-12}M_{J}$.
