Can Blue UV-Bright Galaxies Drive Reionization at Cosmic Dawn? An Galaxy with at

Yunjing Wu, Sijia Cai, Yongda Zhu +28

We revisit EBG-1, a gravitationally lensed galaxy at , using newly obtained deep (14 hr) JWST/NIRSpec G235M () spectroscopy. EBG-1 is one of the bluest gala…

LATED: JWST integral field spectroscopy of a galaxy caught in chemical infancy at behind Abell 2744

Mingyu Li, Roberto Maiolino, Zheng Cai +26

When Population III (Pop III) star formation ended remains an open question. LATED-1 is an intrinsically faint () Ly emitter at revealed by VLT/MU…

LATED: Ly-anchored photometric selection of candidate metal-free and extremely metal-poor star formation from the end of reionisation to cosmic noon

Mingyu Li, Zheng Cai, Roberto Maiolino +24

Cosmological simulations allow a low-level tail of Population III (Pop III) star formation to persist to . Spectroscopic confirmation is expensive, so an efficient photometr…

AEON-z5: A Candidate AGN-driven Outflow Enriching the Circumgalactic Medium at

Xiaoyang Wei, Zheng Cai, Shiwu Zhang +6

The dispersal of chemically enriched gas from galaxies into their surroundings is a key process in galaxy evolution, yet direct observational evidence at z>5 remains scarce. We pre…

Low Ly Visibility in Galaxy Overdensities: Reionization Topology and Neutral-Fraction Ceilings from DIVER over

Yongda Zhu, Xiaohui Fan, Laura C. Keating +19

Ly-alpha emission is widely used to trace cosmic reionization, but its interpretation depends on how Ly-alpha visibility varies with galaxy environment. We use deep JWST/NIRSpec ob…

A massive barred spiral galaxy at z = 5.102 discovered by JWST

Xiaohan Wang, Fengwu Sun, Yoshihisa Asada +21

We report M1149-BSG-z5, a barred spiral galaxy at , identified in the parallel field of MACS J1149+2223 with JWST and HST. M1149-BSG-z5 is the highest redshift barred ga…

A Strongly Lensed Ultra-faint Arc at with an F200W excess in Abell S1063

Fujiang Yu, Mingyu Li, Zheng Cai +4

Strong gravitational lensing provides a powerful route to probing intrinsically faint galaxies during the first few hundred million years of cosmic history. In this Letter, we repo…

Probing Direct Contributions of Galaxies and AGN to Cosmic Reionization in a Quasar Field J0226+0302 with JWST NIRCam and NIRSpec

Xiangyu Jin, Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang +19

We present JWST Cycle 2 NIRCam and NIRSpec observations in a quasar field J0226+0302 at z=6.5412 to probe the direct connections between the intergalactic medium (IGM), galaxies, a…

Little red dots as a cosmological probe: constraining with quasi-periodic pulsations

Zijian Zhang, Kohei Inayoshi, Masamune Oguri +4

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has uncovered a population of ``little red dots'' (LRDs) at , potentially representing early supermassive black holes embedded in…

First-star imprints in a metal-poor galaxy overdensity near the end of reionization

Zihao Li, Koki Kakiichi, Lise Christensen +24

The first generation of stars, known as Population III (Pop III), formed from primordial gas consisting solely of hydrogen and helium and is believed to have emerged only a few hun…

A Steep-Extinction Quasi-stellar Object at z=4.6: JWST Evidence for Abundant Small Dust Grains

Mingyu Li, Zheng Cai, Roberto Maiolino +9

The rapid accumulation of massive dust reservoirs in the early Universe remains a major challenge in astrophysics. While core-collapse supernovae can inject large dust grains ($a \…

Something Bright at the Edge of Everything: A Uniquely JWST-Dark Radio Source in COSMOS

Mingyu Li

For decades, astronomers have been searching for bright radio sources deep into the epoch of reionization (EoR). The most distant, powerful radio sources are expected to reside in…

COSMOS-3D: Black Hole Mass Estimators and Luminosity Functions of Paschen-line AGNs

Danyang Jiang, Linhua Jiang, Shuqi Fu +13

Near-IR Paschen lines are potentially an excellent tracer of Type 1 AGNs that is hardly affected by dust extinction. JWST allows us, for the first time, to explore Paschen-line obj…
