BEACON: JWST NIRCam Pure-parallel Imaging Survey. IV. A Systematic Search for Galaxy Overdensities and Evidence for Gas Accretion Mode Transition

Ryo Albert Sutanto, Takahiro Morishita, Tadayuki Kodama +20

We systematically search for galaxy overdensities using 20 independent fields with a minimum of six filters (F090W, F115W, F150W, F277W, F356W, and F444W) from BEACON, the JWST Cyc…

Pristine Massive Star Formation Caught at the Break of Cosmic Dawn

Takahiro Morishita, Zhaoran Liu, Massimo Stiavelli +3

The existence of galaxies with no heavy elements is a key prediction of cosmological models. So far no "zero-metallicity", or Population~III, galaxies have been identified. Here, w…

BEACON: JWST NIRCam Pure-parallel Imaging Survey. III. Constraints on the UV LF and the Clustering of z~7-14 Galaxies

Kimi C. Kreilgaard, Charlotte A. Mason, Takahiro Morishita +22

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has extended the frontier of galaxy detection to redshifts z>11, finding a high abundance of UV-bright sources that challenge theoretical mode…

A Nitrogen-rich AGN Powering a Large Ionizing Bubble at z=8.63

Takahiro Morishita, Massimo Stiavelli, Charlotte A. Mason +5

We report the detection of Ly in CANUCS-LRD-z8.6, a recently discovered AGN at z = 8.63 by Tripodi et al. (2024), in new NIRSpec/MSA G140H/F070LP observations. We detect broad…

BEACON: JWST NIRCam Pure-parallel Imaging Survey. II. Physical Properties of Galaxies

Yechi Zhang, Takahiro Morishita, Kimi C. Kreilgaard +23

We present photometric properties of 161 galaxy candidates at selected from the second data release (DR2) of BEACON, a JWST Cycle 2 pure-parallel NIRCam imaging program. C…

The GLASS-JWST Early Release Science Programme: The NIRISS Spectroscopic Catalogue

Peter J. Watson, Benedetta Vulcani, Tommaso Treu +18

We present a spectroscopic redshift catalogue of sources in the Abell 2744 cluster field, derived from JWST/NIRISS observations taken as part of the GLASS-JWST Early Release Scienc…
