GLIMPSE-D: An Exotic Balmer-Jump Object at z=6.20? Revisiting Photometric Selection and the Cosmic Abundance of Pop III Galaxies

Seiji Fujimoto, Yoshihisa Asada, Rohan P. Naidu +19

We present deep JWST/NIRSpec G395M spectroscopy of GLIMPSE-16043, a promising Pop III candidate originally identified through NIRCam photometry as having weak [OIII]$λ\lam…

A GLIMPSE of Intermediate Mass Black holes in the epoch of reionization: Witnessing the Descendants of Direct Collapse?

Qinyue Fei, Seiji Fujimoto, Rohan P. Naidu +17

JWST has revealed an abundance of supermassive black holes (BHs) in the early Universe, and yet the lowest mass seed black holes that gave rise to these populations remain elusive.…

BlackTHUNDER: Evidence of three massive black holes in a z~5 galaxy

Hannah Übler, Giovanni Mazzolari, Roberto Maiolino +41

We present observational evidence of three massive, accreting black holes (BHs) in the z=5.0167 galaxy J0148-4214 from JWST/NIRSpec-IFU spectroscopy. The BHs are revealed through b…

Bursty or heavy? The surprise of bright Population III systems in the Reionization era

Alessandra Venditti, Julian B. Munoz, Volker Bromm +3

The nature of the first, so-called Population III (Pop III) stars has for long remained largely unconstrained. However, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) finally opened new con…

GLIMPSE: An ultra-faint 10 Pop III Galaxy Candidate and First Constraints on the Pop III UV Luminosity Function at

Seiji Fujimoto, Rohan P. Naidu, John Chisholm +32

Detecting the first generation of stars, Population III (PopIII), has been a long-standing goal in astrophysics, yet they remain elusive even in the JWST era. Here we present a nov…
