Bursting at the seams: the star-forming main sequence and its scatter at z=3-9 using NIRCam photometry from JADES

C. Simmonds, S. Tacchella, W. McClymont +24

We present a comprehensive study of the star-forming main sequence (SFMS) and its scatter at redshifts , using NIRCam photometry from the JADES survey in the GOODS…

Low-mass bursty galaxies in JADES efficiently produce ionising photons and could represent the main drivers of reionisation

C. Simmonds, S. Tacchella, K. Hainline +21

We study galaxies in JADES Deep to study the evolution of the ionising photon production efficiency, , observed to increase with redshift. We estimate $ξ_{\rm{ion}}…

Star-formation variability on the star-forming main sequence during the Epoch of Reionization

H. T. J. Bevins, S. Tacchella, C. Simmonds

Star formation in galaxies is intrinsically stochastic, driven by physical processes operating across a wide range of scales. The scatter in the star-forming main sequence relation…

Lyman Continuum Leaker Candidates at in the HDUV Based on a Spectroscopic Sample of MUSE LAEs

J. Kerutt, P. A. Oesch, L. Wisotzki +15

In recent years, a number of Lyman continuum (LyC) leaker candidates at intermediate redshifts have been found, providing insight into how the Universe was reionised at early cosmi…

The impact of nebular Lyman-Continuum on ionising photons budget and escape fractions from galaxies

C. Simmonds, A. Verhamme, A. K. Inoue +3

Several Lyman Continuum (LyC) emitters have been detected so far, but their observed ionising spectra sometimes differ from attenuated stellar spectra predicted by stellar populati…

A great diversity of spectral shapes in the ionising spectra of z ~ 0.6-1 galaxies revealed by HST/COS and possible detection of nebular LyC emission

Y. I. Izotov, D. Schaerer, G. Worseck +4

We present observations of eleven compact star-forming galaxies in the redshift range z = 0.6145 - 1.0053, with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on board the Hubble Space Tele…

Ionising properties of galaxies in JADES for a stellar mass complete sample: resolving the cosmic ionising photon budget crisis at the Epoch of Reionisation

C. Simmonds, S. Tacchella, K. Hainline +26

We use NIRCam imaging from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) to study the ionising properties of a sample of 15721 galaxies at , 90\%…
