Spatial decomposition of Little Red Dots with JWST/NIRSpec IFU into broad-line red cores and narrow-line blue host galaxies

Yuzo Ishikawa, Anna-Christina Eilers, Rohan P. Naidu +11

Little Red Dots (LRDs) are a population of compact red sources discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Imaging and spectroscopy have shown that LRDs exhibit a complex…

A new sample of Little Red Dots at in DESI DR1: Broad Balmer lines, low ionization spectrum and no variability

Kevin Park, Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee +4

JWST has unveiled an abundant population of compact broad-line emitters largely at , the Little Red Dots (LRDs), which might represent a previously unprobed supermassive…

The Engine and its Flows: Little Red Dot spectra are shaped by the column densities of their gas envelopes

Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba, Gabriele Pezzulli +23

JWST data have enabled the abundant identification of compact broad Balmer line sources nicknamed the Little Red Dots. While they share broad lines with active galactic nuclei, the…

Little Red Dots as Intermediate Mass, Super-Eddington Engines: Insights from Type IIn Supernovae and The 1837-1856 Great Eruption of Carinae

Rohan P. Naidu, Jorryt Matthee, Anna de Graaff +20

JWST's Little Red Dots (LRDs) display a unique constellation of features that do not occur simultaneously in any other class of galaxies or AGN. Here we observe that many of these…

Environmental Evidence for Overly Massive Black Holes in Low Mass Galaxies and a Black Hole - Halo Mass Relation at

Jorryt Matthee, Rohan P. Naidu, Gauri Kotiwale +14

JWST observations have unveiled faint active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high-redshift that provide insights on the formation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their coevolution…

Little Red Dots at z~2 in EIGER reveal a gentle decline with respect to their peak number density at z~5

Shrriya Kapoor, Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba +10

We report the discovery of a sample of little red dots (LRDs) at identified from deep JWST/NIRCam imaging and wide-field slitless spectroscopy over arcmin f…
