JWST Reveals Compact Nuclear Starbursts Masquerading as AGNs in Metal-Poor Dwarfs: Where Are the Accreting Intermediate-Mass Black Holes?
William Matzko, Shobita Satyapal, Jeffrey D. Mckaig +19
We present JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy of the low-mass, metal-poor galaxy SDSS~J160135.95+311353.7 (J1601), selected for its extreme mid-infrared colors and compact nuclear emission,…
Clumpy Disk, Interloper, or Merger? Nature of a Distant Galaxy Pair at 5 kpc Projected Separation
Hajar Aziz, Vivian U, Archana Aravindan +8
We present the morphological, photometric, and spectroscopic properties of a z ~ 1 galaxy, "lil gal", serendipitously detected in JWST Mid Infrared Instrument (MIRI) images of near…
A Glimpse of the Low-Mass End of the Direct Mass-Metallicity Relation at
Tiger Yu-Yang Hsiao, John Chisholm, Danielle A. Berg +22
The competition between metal synthesis and feedback from massive stars establishes the mass-metallicity relation (MZR) at low-redshifts. Examining this relation at higher redshift…
A High Resolution Search for Dual AGN Candidates in Mergers: A Pre-Selection Strategy using Keck AO
Camilo Vazquez, S. Satyapal, G. Canalizo +20
Accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galaxy mergers with separations 1 kpc are crucial to our understanding of SMBH growth, galaxy evolution, and SMBH binary evolution…
GLIMPSED: Direct evidence for a fast AGN-driven outflow from a z=6.64 Little Red Dot host galaxy
Damien Korber, Rui Marques-Chaves, Daniel Schaerer +15
We report the discovery of GLIMPSED-329380, a z=6.64 galaxy behind Abell S1063, which shows signs of an extreme ionised outflow driven by an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The deep…
Probing AGN Feedback in Dwarf Galaxies with Spatially Resolved NIR Coronal Lines from JWST
Archana Aravindan, Thomas Bohn, Gabriela Canalizo +20
We present the first spatially resolved investigation of near-infrared coronal lines in dwarf galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN), using JWST/NIRSpec integral field spect…
