Extreme outflow velocities and weak UV emission lines indicate quasars shedding their dust cocoons
Guozhen Ma, Stefan J. Geier, Johan P. U. Fynbo +11
The recently discovered low-ionisation broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar GQ 13092904 is unusual due to its very broad, highly blueshifted absorption troughs and an absence of…
JWST spectroscopy of galaxies at : Damped Ly absorbers reveal efficient star formation and hidden redshift biases
Kasper E. Heintz, Clara L. Pollock, Joris Witstok +23
Recent observations with JWST have revealed a remarkable population of surprisingly luminous galaxies at redshifts . Their abundance exceed predictions from simulations and e…
Extended [CII] gas emission in and around a massive quiescent galaxy at z=7.3
F. Valentino, A. Pensabene, A. Weibel +16
We report the discovery of [CII] 158 micron emission in and around the most distant known massive quiescent galaxy RUBIES-UDS-QG-z7 at z = 7.27. Observed with ALMA in band 6, the […
Too many protoclusters? Reconciling the overabundance of cluster progenitors within the first billion years of the Universe
Callum Witten, Jake S. Bennett, Pascal A. Oesch +8
JWST has revealed an overabundance of apparent (`Coma'-like) cluster progenitors at that is two (300) times in excess of, and in () tension with, the numb…
Little Red Dot Host Galaxy Black Hole Star: A Gas-Enshrouded Heart at the Center of Every Little Red Dot
Wendy Q. Sun, Rohan P. Naidu, Jorryt Matthee +30
The central engines of Little Red Dots (LRDs) may be ``black hole stars" (BH*s), early stages of black hole growth characterized by dense gas envelopes. So far, the most direct evi…
JWST Spectroscopic Insights Into the Diversity of Galaxies in the First 500 Myr: Short-Lived Snapshots Along a Common Evolutionary Pathway
Guido Roberts-Borsani, Pascal Oesch, Richard Ellis +21
We investigate the nature and spectroscopic diversity of early galaxies from a sample of 41 sources at z>10 with JWST/NIRSpec prism observations. We compare the properties of stron…
