Little Red Dots at z~2 in EIGER reveal a gentle decline with respect to their peak number density at z~5

Shrriya Kapoor, Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba +10

We report the discovery of a sample of little red dots (LRDs) at identified from deep JWST/NIRCam imaging and wide-field slitless spectroscopy over arcmin f…

Possible chemical signatures of first-star enrichment in a very metal-poor galaxy overdensity near the end of reionization

Zihao Li, Koki Kakiichi, Lise Christensen +24

The first generation of stars, known as Population III (Pop III), formed from primordial gas consisting solely of hydrogen and helium and is believed to have emerged only a few hun…

BlackTHUNDER: Evidence of three massive black holes in a z~5 galaxy

Hannah Übler, Giovanni Mazzolari, Roberto Maiolino +41

We present observational evidence of three massive, accreting black holes (BHs) in the z=5.0167 galaxy J0148-4214 from JWST/NIRSpec-IFU spectroscopy. The BHs are revealed through b…

EIGER VIII: First stars signatures in the connection between OI absorption and Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization

Jack Higginson, Rongmon Bordoloi, Robert A. Simcoe +8

We investigate the association between galaxies and neutral OI absorption systems at z~6, which trace metal-enriched gas during the epoch of reionization. We identify 40 galaxies a…

Rapid, out of equilibrium metal enrichment indicated by a flat mass-metallicity relation at z~6 from NIRCam grism spectroscopy

Gauri Kotiwale, Jorryt Matthee, Daichi Kashino +17

We aim to characterise the mass-metallicity relation (MZR) and the 3D correlation between stellar mass, metallicity and star-formation rate (SFR) known as the fundamental metallici…

A weak Ly halo for an extremely bright Little Red Dot: Indications of enshrouded SMBH growth

Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee, Gabriele Pezzulli +13

The abundant population of "Little Red Dots" (LRDs)-compact objects with red UV to optical colors and broad Balmer lines at high redshift-is unveiling new insights into the propert…
