Broad Paschen lines as black hole mass tracers: A reverberation mapping calibration

Shengxiu Sun, Sarah E. I. Bosman, Frederick B. Davies +4

Single-epoch (SE) black hole mass estimators based on rest-frame ultraviolet or optical broad lines can be limited by dust attenuation or wavelength coverage. We calibrate estimato…

COSMOS-3D: Black Hole Mass Estimators and Luminosity Functions of Paschen-line AGNs

Danyang Jiang, Linhua Jiang, Shuqi Fu +13

Near-IR Paschen lines are potentially an excellent tracer of Type 1 AGNs that is hardly affected by dust extinction. JWST allows us, for the first time, to explore Paschen-line obj…

Discovery of two little red dots transitioning into quasars

Shuqi Fu, Zijian Zhang, Danyang Jiang +9

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has uncovered a new population of compact objects that show a unique V-shaped spectral energy distribution (SED) in the UV and optical wavelength…

COSMOS-3D: Dense Circumnuclear Gas across Black Hole Growth Phases at z ~ 3

Zi-Jian Li, Siwei Zou, Jianwei Lyu +25

We report the discovery of two broad-line X-ray AGNs (cid_414 and cid_947) at z ~ 3 identified in the JWST Cycle 3 COSMOS-3D program using NIRCam F444W grism spectroscopy. Both exh…

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 ÅLuminosity Function (LF) in the COSMOS field. We leverage the…

AGN ruled out as the dominant source of cosmic reionization

Danyang Jiang, Linhua Jiang, Shengxiu Sun +2

Cosmic reionization represents the latest phase transition in the Universe, when the Lyman continuum (LyC) photons turned the intergalactic medium (IGM) from neutral to highly ioni…

No Redshift Evolution in the Fe II/Mg II Flux Ratios of Quasars across Cosmic Time

Danyang Jiang, Masafusa Onoue, Linhua Jiang +13

The Fe II/Mg II emission line flux ratio in quasar spectra serves as a proxy for the relative Fe to alpha-element abundances in the broad line regions of quasars. Due to the expect…
