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 $…

A clear detection of proper motion confirms that the claimed galaxy candidate, "Capotauro'', is a Y-type brown dwarf

F. -Y. F. Liu, D. J. McLeod, B. J. Sutlieff +13

The compact red source ``Capotauro'', discovered in deep JWST imaging in 2025, has been suggested as a possible galaxy candidate at redshift on account of its extreme N…

Unprecedented Constraints on Gas Flows at High Redshift Using Deep JWST/NIRSpec Observations from the LyC22, EXCELS, and AURORA Surveys

Emily Kehoe, Alice E. Shapley, Adam C. Carnall +25

We investigate how low-ionization gas flows in typical star-forming galaxies at depend on galaxy intrinsic properties and viewing angle. For this analysis we use JWST/NIRS…
