The Role of Environment in Shaping the Assembly Timelines of Massive Quiescent Galaxies at Cosmic Noon

Tianmu Gao, J. Trevor Mendel, Letizia Bugiani +10

JWST observations of massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) at have revealed diverse star formation histories (SFHs). In this letter, we investigate whether these variations ar…

Outflows in the Early Universe: Neutral gas Absorption in Galaxies at z > 3 from low-resolution JWST Spectroscopy

Matteo Sapori, Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani +14

Recent JWST/NIRSpec observations have shown that Na I D absorption tracing neutral gas outflows is widespread in massive galaxies at Cosmic Noon (-), but their prevalenc…

Resolved Maps of Gas and Dust in a Massive Quiescent Galaxy at z=2 from INQUEST-JWST: Evidence of Accretion and Rejuvenation

Sai Gangula, Andrew B. Newman, Meng Gu +10

Quiescent galaxies in the distant universe exhibit a range of gas content that may indicate a variety of quenching processes are at play. Mapping the distribution and kinematics of…

Unraveling Chemical Enrichment in Extreme Emission-Line Galaxies: A Multi-Element Bayesian View of Bursty Star Formation and Galaxy Evolution in DESI

Razieh Emami, James A. A. Trussler, Tiger Yu-Yang Hsiao +11

Extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) probe chemical enrichment in low-mass, bursty systems where star formation, feedback, and gas accretion are poorly constrained. Using DESI DR…

The Blue Jay Survey: Deep JWST Spectroscopy for a Representative Sample of Galaxies at Cosmic Noon

Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani, Minjung Park +17

We present the Blue Jay survey, a cycle 1 JWST program aimed at studying the stellar and gas content of galaxies at cosmic noon. The survey consists of deep spectroscopy for 153 ta…

Death by Impact: Evidence for Merger-Driven Quenching in a Collisional Ring Galaxy at Cosmic Noon

Amir H. Khoram, Sirio Belli, Carlo Nipoti +7

The role of interactions and mergers in the rapid quenching of massive galaxies in the early Universe remains uncertain, largely due to the difficulty of directly linking mergers t…

Probing neutral outflows in z ~ 2 galaxies using JWST observations of Ca II H and K absorption lines

Caterina Liboni, Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani +12

Using deep JWST/NIRSpec spectra from the Blue Jay survey, we perform the first systematic investigation of neutral gas content in massive galaxies at Cosmic Noon based on the Ca II…

Big, Dusty Galaxies in Blue Jay: Insights into the Relationship Between Morphology and Dust Attenuation at Cosmic Noon

Gabriel Maheson, Sandro Tacchella, Sirio Belli +10

The dust attenuation of galaxies is highly diverse and closely linked to stellar population properties and the star dust geometry, yet its relationship to galaxy morphology remains…

Stripped and Enriched: The Role of Ram-Pressure in Shaping Chemical Enrichment of Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift

Amir H. Khoram, Bianca Poggianti, Alessia Moretti +11

The chemical evolution of galaxies is shaped by their star formation histories and the exchange of gas with their environments. Metallicity provides key insights into these process…

Unravelling the role of merger histories in the population of In situ stars: linking IllustrisTNG cosmological simulation to H3 survey

Razieh Emami, Lars Hernquist, Randall Smith +16

We undertake a comprehensive investigation into the distribution of in~situ stars within Milky Way-like galaxies, leveraging TNG50 simulations and comparing their predictions with…

AGN Feedback in Quiescent Galaxies at Cosmic Noon Traced by Ionized Gas Emission

Letizia Bugiani, Sirio Belli, Minjung Park +17

We analyze ionized gas emission lines in deep rest-frame optical spectra of 16 quiescent galaxies at redshift observed with JWST/NIRSpec by the Blue Jay survey. Robust…

Widespread rapid quenching at cosmic noon revealed by JWST deep spectroscopy

Minjung Park, Sirio Belli, Charlie Conroy +16

Massive quiescent galaxies in the young universe are expected to be quenched rapidly, but it is unclear whether they all experience starbursts before quenching and what physical me…

JWST Reveals Widespread AGN-Driven Neutral Gas Outflows in Massive z ~ 2 Galaxies

Rebecca L. Davies, Sirio Belli, Minjung Park +15

We use deep JWST/NIRSpec R~1000 slit spectra of 113 galaxies at 1.7 < z < 3.5, selected from the mass-complete Blue Jay survey, to investigate the prevalence and typical properties…

Star Formation Shut Down by Multiphase Gas Outflow in a Galaxy at a Redshift of 2.45

Sirio Belli, Minjung Park, Rebecca L. Davies +15

Large-scale outflows driven by supermassive black holes are thought to play a fundamental role in suppressing star formation in massive galaxies. However, direct observational evid…
