Deep Spectroscopic Follow-Up of Maisie's Galaxy -- A Typical Galaxy in the Early Universe
Rebecca L. Larson, Taylor A. Hutchison, Steven L. Finkelstein +26
The first several years of JWST observations have yielded surprisingly large numbers of bright galaxies, with follow-up spectroscopy of many of these sources implying extrem…
The MIRI Early Obscured-AGN Wide Survey (MEOW): A Population of Hidden AGN at Revealed by JWST/MIRI Imaging
Gene C. K. Leung, Anna-Christina Eilers, Ryan Endsley +25
We present the MIRI Early Obscured-AGN Wide Survey (MEOW), a JWST/MIRI imaging survey designed to detect dust-obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) across cosmic time, with a parti…
Hunting Wandering 3<z<8 Black Holes: Spatial Offsets in Ionization Ratio and Continuum Emission
Urvi Thakurdesai, Anthony J. Taylor, Steven L. Finkelstein +14
The early growth and assembly of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) remain key topics of interest in galaxy evolution. One of the scenarios predicted by theoretical models is that fr…
MXDFz4.4: A LyC emitter 250Myr after the epoch of reionization and a first test of Ly-alpha morphology as a tracer of LyC escape at high redshift
Ilias Goovaerts, Marc Rafelski, Alexander Beckett +14
Assessing the contribution of ionizing sources to cosmic reionization is a central goal of extragalactic astrophysics. Understanding and quantifying ionizing escape remains challen…
A Rapid Evolution in the Observed Mbh/M* Relation at z > 3 Revealed via Spectro-photometric SED-Modeling
Ansh R. Gupta, Anthony Taylor, Emma Curtis-Lake +33
Spectroscopic observations from JWST have uncovered a plethora of active galactic nuclei (AGN) at z > 4 with black hole (BH) mass (Mbh) to stellar mass (M*) ratios significantly ab…
PEARLS: Two Distinct Populations of AGN Hosts Moving Between Star Formation and Quiescence
Gibson B. Bowling, Rafael Ortiz, S. P. Willner +29
We present the results of AGN--host-galaxy decomposition using JWST/NIRCam, HST/ACS, and HST/WFC3 imaging of the North Ecliptic Pole Time Domain Field (NEP-TDF). The light-profiles…
