A JWST/NIRSpec Integral Field Unit Survey of Luminous Quasars at z ~ 5-6 (Q-IFU): Rest-frame Optical Nuclear Properties and Extended Nebulae

Weizhe Liu, Xiaohui Fan, Richard Green +10

It remains debatable how billion-solar-mass supermassive black holes (SMBHs) form and evolve within the first billion years. We report results from a James Webb Space Telescope (JW…

Discovery of a Little Red Dot candidate at in COSMOS-Web based on MIRI-NIRCam selection

Takumi S. Tanaka, Hollis B. Akins, Yuichi Harikane +64

JWST has revealed a new high-redshift population called little red dots (LRDs). Since LRDs may be in the early phase of black hole growth, identifying them in the early universe is…

The Discovery of Little Red Dots in the Local Universe: Signatures of Cool Gas Envelopes

Xiaojing Lin, Xiaohui Fan, Zheng Cai +25

JWST observations have revealed a population of high-redshift "little red dots" (LRDs) that challenge conventional AGN models. We report the discovery of three local LRDs at $z = 0…

A 13-Billion-Year View of Galaxy Growth: Metallicity Gradient Evolution from the Local Universe to with JWST and Archival Surveys

Zihao Li, Zheng Cai, Xin Wang +25

The galaxy gas-phase metallicity gradients have been extensively studied over the past four decades, both in the local and high-redshift universe, as they trace the baryon cycle an…

Enhanced Merger Fractions in a Reionization-Era Protocluster

Lorraine C. Marcelin, Jaclyn B. Champagne, Feige Wang +4

Mergers play a critical role in galaxy evolution, but their relationship to their surrounding environments is unexplored at high redshift. We investigate the galaxy merger rate amo…
