Quiescent Galaxies at from CAPERS spectroscopy and their Number densities
Lu Shen, Weida Hu, Casey Papovich +28
Recent JWST observations have revealed an overabundance of quiescent galaxies at high redshift. Photometric methods, such as photometry-derived sSFRs, colors, and synthetic $…
Beyond the Monsters: A More Complete Census of Black Hole Activity at Cosmic Dawn
Madisyn Brooks, Jonathan R. Trump, Raymond C. Simons +19
JWST has revealed an abundance of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high redshifts (), pushing the limits of black hole (BH) science in the early Universe. Resu…
Optical Strong Line Ratios Cannot Distinguish Between Stellar Populations and Accreting Black Holes at High Ionization Parameters and Low Metallicities
Nikko J. Cleri, Grace M. Olivier, Bren E. Backhaus +24
High-redshift observations from JWST indicate that optical strong line ratios do not carry the same constraining power as they do at low redshifts. Critically, this prevents a sepa…
Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization Are All Bark and No Bite -- Plenty of Ionizing Photons, Low Escape Fractions
Casey Papovich, Justin W. Cole, Weida Hu +27
Early results from JWST suggest that epoch-of-reionization (EoR) galaxies produce copious ionizing photons, which, if they escape efficiently, could cause reionization to occur too…
CAPERS Observations of Two UV-Bright Galaxies at z>10. More Evidence for Bursting Star Formation in the Early Universe
Vasily Kokorev, Óscar A. Chávez Ortiz, Anthony J. Taylor +38
We present the first results from the CAPERS survey, utilizing PRISM observations with the JWST/NIRSpec MSA in the PRIMER-UDS field. With just 14 % of the total planned data volume…
Extended Enriched Gas in a Multi-Galaxy Merger at Redshift 6.7
Weida Hu, Casey Papovich, Lu Shen +5
Recent JWST observations have uncovered high-redshift galaxies characterized by multiple star-forming clumps, many of which appear to be undergoing mergers. Such mergers, especiall…
The Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science Survey (CEERS)
Steven L. Finkelstein, Micaela B. Bagley, Pablo Arrabal Haro +96
We present the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey, a 77.2 hour Director's Discretionary Early Release Science Program. CEERS demonstrates, tests, and validates e…
Broad-Line AGN at 3.5<z<6: The Black Hole Mass Function and a Connection with Little Red Dots
Anthony J. Taylor, Steven L. Finkelstein, Dale D. Kocevski +48
We present a sample of 50 H-alpha detected broad-line active galactic nuclei (BLAGN) at redshifts 3.5<z<6.8 using data from the CEERS and RUBIES surveys. We select these sources di…
Characterizing the Average Interstellar Medium Conditions of Galaxies at 5.6-9 with UV and Optical Nebular Lines
Weida Hu, Casey Papovich, Mark Dickinson +30
Ultraviolet (UV; rest-frame A) spectra provide a wealth of diagnostics to characterize fundamental galaxy properties, such as their chemical enrichment, the nature…
CEERS: Increasing Scatter along the Star-Forming Main Sequence Indicates Early Galaxies Form in Bursts
Justin W. Cole, Casey Papovich, Steven L. Finkelstein +29
We present the star-formation-rate -- stellar-mass (SFR-M) relation for galaxies in the CEERS survey at . We model the \jwst\ and \hst\ rest-UV and rest-op…
Evidence for a Shallow Evolution in the Volume Densities of Massive Galaxies at to from CEERS
Katherine Chworowsky, Steven L. Finkelstein, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +36
We analyze the evolution of massive (log [] ) galaxies at 4--8 selected from the JWST Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) survey. W…
CEERS: 7.7 m PAH Star Formation Rate Calibration with JWST MIRI
Kaila Ronayne, Casey Papovich, Guang Yang +33
We test the relationship between UV-derived star formation rates (SFRs) and the 7.7 m polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) luminosities from the integrated emission of galaxies…
The FENIKS Survey: Spectroscopic Confirmation of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at z ~ 3-5
Jacqueline Antwi-Danso, Casey Papovich, James Esdaile +13
The measured ages of massive, quiescent galaxies at imply that massive galaxies quench as early as . While the number of spectroscopic confirmations of quiesce…
Spectroscopic Confirmation of CEERS NIRCam-selected Galaxies at
