HST Confirms Sub-5 kpc Dual Quasar Pairs at Cosmic Noon
Qian Wang, Xuheng Ding, John Silverman +12
During cosmic noon (), when both star formation and black hole growth peaked, galaxy mergers are predicted to trigger dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) that eventually co…
Where Galaxies Go to Die: The Environments of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at
Ian McConachie, Anna de Graaff, Michael V. Maseda +25
At low redshift, massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) are most frequently found in massive, rich galaxy clusters, but at high redshift the trend is less clear. Here, we present spectr…
Cross-correlation of Luminous Red Galaxies with ML-selected AGN in HSC-SSP III: HOD Parameters for Type I and Type II Quasars
Rodrigo Córdova Rosado, Andy D. Goulding, Jenny E. Greene +4
Understanding the dark matter (DM) halo environment in which galaxies that host active galactic nuclei (AGN) reside is a window into the nature of supermassive black hole (SMBH) ac…
A Compact Symmetric Object Discovered by the VLA Low-band Ionosphere and Transient Experiment
Kristina Nyland, Mary Rachelle Barrett, Genna Crom +11
We present new Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) imaging of a MHz-peaked spectrum (MPS) source that was found using commensal low-frequency data taken with the Karl G. Jansky Very La…
No Luminous Little Red Dots: A Sharp Cutoff in Their Luminosity Function
Yilun Ma, Jenny E. Greene, Marta Volonteri +14
One of the most surprising results of early James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations is the discovery of an abundance of red, compact, broad-line objects dubbed "little red d…
SQuIGGE: Buried star formation cannot explain the rapidly fading CO(2-1) luminosity in massive, post-starburst galaxies
David J. Setton, Justin S. Spilker, Rachel Bezanson +12
Observational and theoretical studies have long held that rapid gas consumption in starbursts is responsible for the formation of quiescent galaxies. However, studies of recently q…
Quenching Through Tidal Gas Removal: Molecular Gas and Star Formation in Tidal Tails of z ~ 0.7 Post-Starburst Galaxies
Vincenzo R. D'Onofrio, Justin S. Spilker, Rachel Bezanson +10
The active suppression of star formation in galaxies is critical in preventing the growth of overly massive systems and explaining the formation of present-day elliptical galaxies.…
Unusually High Gas-to-Dust Ratios Observed in High-Redshift Quiescent Galaxies
Justin S. Spilker, Katherine E. Whitaker, Desika Narayanan +15
Tracking the cold molecular gas contents of galaxies is critical to understand the interplay between star formation and galaxy growth across cosmic time. Observations of the long-w…
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…
The connection between galaxy mergers, star formation and AGN activity in the HSC-SSP
Kiyoaki Christopher Omori, Connor Bottrell, Sabine Bellstedt +6
Internal gas inflows driven by galaxy mergers are considered to enhance star formation rates (SFR), fuel supermassive black hole growth and stimulate active galactic nuclei (AGN).…
Counting Little Red Dots at with Ground-based Surveys and Spectroscopic Follow-up
Yilun Ma, Jenny E. Greene, David J. Setton +13
Little red dots (LRDs) are a population of red, compact objects discovered by JWST at . At , they are roughly 100 times more abundant than UV-selected quasars. However,…
A "Black Hole Star" Reveals the Remarkable Gas-Enshrouded Hearts of the Little Red Dots
Rohan P. Naidu, Jorryt Matthee, Harley Katz +48
The physical processes that led to the formation of billion solar mass black holes within the first 700 million years of cosmic time remain a puzzle. Several theoretical scenarios…
A confirmed deficit of hot and cold dust emission in the most luminous Little Red Dots
David J. Setton, Jenny E. Greene, Justin S. Spilker +33
Luminous broad H emission and red rest-optical SEDs are the hallmark of compact Little Red Dots (LRDs), implying highly attenuated dusty starbursts and/or obscured active galact…
A remarkable Ruby: Absorption in dense gas, rather than evolved stars, drives the extreme Balmer break of a Little Red Dot at
Anna de Graaff, Hans-Walter Rix, Rohan P. Naidu +25
The origin of the rest-optical emission of compact, red, high-redshift sources known as `little red dots' (LRDs) poses a major puzzle. If interpreted as starlight, it would imply t…
The Optical and Infrared Are Connected
Christian K. Jespersen, Peter Melchior, David N. Spergel +3
Galaxies are often modelled as composites of separable components with distinct spectral signatures, implying that different wavelength ranges are only weakly correlated. They are…
