A Robust Estimator for the Lyman- Forest 1D Power Spectrum at High Redshift

Molly Wolfson, Joseph F. Hennawi, Frederick B. Davies +1

The Lyman- (Ly) forest flux power spectrum is sensitive to a range of astrophysical and cosmological effects, including the thermal state of and large-scale fluctuatio…

Deep X-ray View of a Distant Protocluster Anchored by a Quasar at : No Evidence for Enhanced X-ray AGN Activity

Shouyi Wang, Feige Wang, Jinyi Yang +22

Whether dense environments accelerate SMBH growth during cosmic reionization remains uncertain because X-ray constraints on protoclusters are rare. We analyze ks of…

Nearly pristine gas in a galaxy 1 billion years after the Big Bang

Sarah E. I. Bosman, Frederick B. Davies, Louise Welsh +22

Excitation of carbon and oxygen ions is the primary mechanism by which collapsing gas clouds dissipate heat to form new stars. At early cosmic times, in galaxies with chemically pr…

BAQARO: Tracing Stochastic Black Hole Growth Histories and Quasar Lightcurves in a Cosmological Context

Elia Pizzati, Joseph F. Hennawi, Joop Schaye

How supermassive black holes (BHs) assemble their mass and power the luminous quasars we observe across cosmic time remain central open questions in galaxy evolution. We present BA…

Quasar Impostors: Two Extremely UV-Bright () Reionisation-Epoch Galaxies Powered by Very Massive Stars

Daming Yang, Joseph F. Hennawi, Sarah E. I. Bosman +20

The extreme bright end of the galaxy UV luminosity function during reionisation remains poorly constrained, particularly where the galaxy and quasar luminosity functions overlap an…

Euclid: Discovery of 31 new quasars at

D. Yang, J. F. Hennawi, F. Guarneri +211

We report the discovery of 31 new high- quasars in the redshift range . These quasars were selected from approximately 3000 deg of sky covered during the firs…

Euclid: A UV-faint quasar in a highly luminous star-forming host galaxy at

S. Belladitta, R. Decarli, E. Bañados +180

Constraining the co-evolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies in the first billion years after the Big Bang is essential for understanding the formation of the…

A Measurement of the Thermal and Ionization State of the IGM at

Teng Hu, Vikram Khaire, Joseph F. Hennawi +4

We apply a machine-learning-based inference method that exploits the joint Doppler parameter-column density (b-NHI) distribution from Lya forest decomposition to measure the therma…

The Impact of Cosmic Variance and Satellites on JWST Clustering Measurements at Redshift around 6

Jiamu Huang, Elia Pizzati, Joseph F. Hennawi +4

We present a framework for inferring the dark matter halo masses of quasars and [O III]-emitting galaxies from JWST/NIRCam Wide Field Slitless Spectroscopy (WFSS) clustering measur…

Detection of an Extended Ly Halo around a Broad Absorption Line Quasar with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager

Raymond P. Remigio, Aaron J. Barth, Feige Wang +6

We present the first results from a program searching for extended Ly halos around high redshift () quasars using the red channel of the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (…

The Qz5 Survey (II): Metallicity Evolution of Damped Lyα Systems Out to z5

Marie Wisz, Marc Rafelski, Grecco Oyarzun +10

Damped Ly absorbers (DLAs) are the highest \HI\ column density (\NHI) absorption line systems detected in the spectra of background quasars. DLAs dominate the neutral gas conten…

Three Hundred Quasars from the Couch: A first look at high-redshift quasar discovery with SPHEREx

Frederick B. Davies, Sarah E. I. Bosman, Arpita Ganguly +9

Photometric selection of luminous high-redshift () quasars is plagued by contamination from numerous low-mass Galactic stars, reddened lower-redshift quasars, as well as…

Clustering of z~6.6 Quasars and [O III] Emitters Constrains Host Halo Masses and Duty Cycles in 25 ASPIRE Fields

Jiamu Huang, Joseph Hennawi, Elia Pizzati +21

We use data from the JWST ASPIRE Wide Field Slitless Spectroscopy (WFSS) program to measure the auto-correlation function of [O,{\sc iii}] emitters at 5.37.0 and the quasar--[…
