Calcium Triplet Absorption is Common around Little Red Dots
Jenny E. Greene, Hanpu Liu, Raphael E. Hviding +29
We present new evidence for an optically thick atmosphere surrounding Little Red Dots (LRDs) in the form of Ca absorption at rest-frame 8500A, the calcium triplet (CaT). Building o…
Overmassive No More: The Case for Little Red Dots Hosting Black Hole Seeds as Massive as Single Supermassive Stars
Wendy Q. Sun, Rohan P. Naidu, Hanpu Liu +17
Little Red Dots (LRDs) display singular properties unlike any known class of AGN or galaxies, motivating novel mass estimators for their central engines. Inspired by their similari…
The Ashes of Supermassive Stars: Globular Cluster-like Aluminum Enhancement in Little Red Dots
V. Kokorev, J. Chisholm, R. P. Naidu +16
The relative abundances of elements in galaxies serve as fossil records of the physical conditions and processes by which they were forged. While the Big Bang produced only the lig…
JWST Reveals a Candidate Supermassive Black Hole Binary at z=4.3 in the Brightest Sub-millimeter Galaxy in COSMOS-Web
Jed McKinney, Ansh Gupta, Julian B. Munoz +13
We present JWST/NIRSpec PRISM and G395M grating spectroscopy for AzTEC-1, a massive sub-mm bright galaxy at in the COSMOS extragalactic field. The PRISM spectrum reveals s…
Can Little Red Dots Contribute To The Early Universe Cosmic Dust Budget?
Chris Ashall, Rohan P. Naidu, Alberto Torralba +11
The origin of dust in the early Universe remains uncertain. We explore whether Little Red Dots (LRDs) could provide a high-redshift dust-production channel. Motivated by an analogy…
The Evolution of Low-Ionization Electron Densities in Galaxies Across Cosmic Epochs
Mabel G. Stephenson, John Chisholm, Alberto Saldana-Lopez +12
We investigate the low-ionization electron density in the interstellar medium of galaxies across , derived with the [O II] and [S II]$λ\lambda6718…
