Quasar Impostors: Two Extremely UV-Bright () Reionisation-Epoch Galaxies Powered by Very Massive Stars
Daming Yang, Joseph F. Hennawi, Sarah E. I. Bosman +20
The extreme bright end of the galaxy UV luminosity function during reionisation remains poorly constrained, particularly where the galaxy and quasar luminosity functions overlap an…
JWST COSMOS-3D: Spectroscopic Census and Luminosity Function of [O III] Emitters at 6.75<z<9.05 in COSMOS
Romain A. Meyer, Feige Wang, Koki Kakiichi +38
We present a catalogue of spectroscopically selected [OIII]+Hb emitters at 6.75<z<9.05 and the resulting [OIII] 5008 Ã Luminosity Function (LF) in the COSMOS field. We leverage the…
ASPIRE: The Environments and Dark Matter Halos of Luminous Quasars in the Epoch of Reionization
Feige Wang, Jaclyn B. Champagne, Jiamu Huang +42
We present a systematic study of the environments of 25 luminous quasars at from the ASPIRE program. Using JWST/NIRCam WFSS data, we identified 487 galaxies at $5.3 \less…
Extreme Galaxy-scale Outflows Are Frequent among Luminous Early Quasars
Weizhe Liu, Xiaohui Fan, Huan Li +23
The existence of abundant post-starburst/quiescent galaxies just 1-2 Gyrs after the Big Bang challenges our current paradigm of galaxy evolution. Cosmological simulations sug…
Hidden in Pixels I: Discovery of dual "little red dots" indicates excess clustering on kilo-parsec scales
Takumi S. Tanaka, John D. Silverman, Kazuhiro Shimasaku +56
``Little Red Dots'' (LRDs) are an abundant high-redshift population newly discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and considered to be an early growth phase of supermas…
MEOW: The increase in the obscured AGN fraction in mid-infrared from 0 < z < 6 with JWST MIRI
Teodora-Elena Bulichi, Gene C. K. Leung, Anna-Christina Eilers +16
Obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) are often invoked to explain the rapid emergence of young quasars at high redshift and are crucial for building a complete census of AGN activ…
