Chemical abundance patterns at z=1-7: Carbon, Nitrogen, Neon, Sulphur, and Argon abundances from JWST spectroscopy
E. Cataldi, F. Belfiore, M. Curti +22
The relative abundances of chemical elements in the interstellar medium (ISM) trace the history of star formation and chemical enrichment in galaxies. We investigate the abundance…
GA-NIFS view of LAP1: Assembly of Pop~III stellar clusters during EoR
J. Scholtz, R. Maiolino, S. Carniani +28
Lensed and Pristine 1 (LAP1) is one of the most promising candidates for the detection of so-called Pop~III stars at . In this work, we present new high-spectral-resoluti…
BlackTHUNDER Reveals a Massive Filament around a Compact AGN at
Giulia Tozzi, Hannah Übler, Eleonora Parlanti +27
Despite the growing number of compact active galactic nuclei (AGN) at discovered by JWST, their formation and evolution remain poorly understood. This paper investigates the…
Little Red and Blue Dots: AGN-excited narrow lines, Lyman- emission, and resemblance to standard quasars
Sophia Geris, Roberto Maiolino, Xihan Ji +35
We present an analysis of a sample of 36 Little Red and Blue Dots (LRDs and LBDs) at , identified by JWST in the GOODS fields. While both categories are selected to ha…
JADES: the mass-metallicity relation at . New calibrations, extremely metal-poor galaxies, and chemical diversity
Yuki Isobe, Mirko Curti, Roberto Maiolino +28
We present gas-phase metallicities of star-forming galaxies at -10 with deep JWST/NIRSpec spectra from the JADES full data release, Dark Horse, and OASIS programmes. We stack…
Intense and extended CIII] emission suggests a strong outflow in JADES-GS-z14-0
Stefano Carniani, Peter Jakobsen, Giacomo Venturi +31
JWST has revealed an overabundance of very bright, blue galaxies at z>10, raising fundamental questions about how star formation and feedback operate at Cosmic Dawn. We present new…
Metal Mayhem at z~7-10: Diversity and Evolution of Gas-Phase Metallicity Gradients
Maria Koller, Roberto Maiolino, Hannah Übler +16
We present a JWST/NIRSpec Integral Field Unit (IFU) study of metallicity gradients in seven low-metallicity systems at . The main sample spans stellar masses of $\rm \lo…
The search for Population III: Confirmation of a HeII emitter with no metal lines at z=10.6
Roberto Maiolino, Hannah Übler, Michele Perna +49
We report the confirmation of a HeII1640 emitter located at 3 pkpc from the galaxy GN-z11, at z=10.6. The detection, based on JWST NIRSpec-IFU high-resolution spectroscopy, conf…
Out of oxygen: Extremely metal-poor galaxy candidates identified at with deep JADES medium-band imaging
James A. A. Trussler, Daniel J. Eisenstein, Andrew J. Bunker +27
JWST is beginning to uncover a population of extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs, ) at , mostly through serendipitous NIRSpec discoveries and blin…
GA-NIFS and JADES: Confirmation of pristine gas near GN-z11
Hannah Übler, Roberto Maiolino, Pablo G. Pérez-González +32
According to the leading cosmological model, a first generation of stars called Population III (PopIII), condensed almost entirely out of hydrogen and helium, must have initiated t…
GA-NIFS: Dissecting The Alchemised: JWST reveals turbulent metal-poor gas fuelling a co-spatial starburst in a complex system at
Robert G. Pascalau, Francesco D'Eugenio, Roberto Maiolino +25
Recent observations revealed that distant galaxies have bursty star formation histories, regulated by stellar or active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback and gas inflows. According to…
Little Red Dots: One Photometric Tag Concealing Diverse Spectroscopic Flavors of Massive Star Formation and Black Hole Activity
Pablo G. Pérez-González, Guillermo Barro, Stefano Carniani +61
We compile JWST/NIRSpec prism and MIRI data for 249 Little Red Dots (LRDs) at 2.3<z<9.3, forming a representative spectroscopic subset of NIRCam-selected LRDs. We derive a median s…
One cloud is not enough: extreme conditions bias chemical abundances in high-redshift galaxies
Bianca Moreschini, Francesco Belfiore, Alessandro Marconi +18
Since its launch, JWST has opened an unprecedented opportunity to characterise the ionised ISM of high-redshift galaxies using well-established rest-frame UV/optical diagnostics fr…
