Sleeping or Dead? Probing the Quenching Mechanism of JWST Dormant Galaxies at z > 3 with ALMA

Mengyuan Xiao, Songnan Qi, Pascal A. Oesch +16

JWST has revealed a population of "dormant'' galaxies at z>3 with strong Balmer breaks and weak emission lines, whose star formation appears to have declined only recently. Whether…

The DAWN JWST Archive: A spectroscopically-informed population study of the physical properties of galaxies at z>2

Rashmi Gottumukkala, Gabriel Brammer, Sune Toft +30

Charting the evolution of star-formation, stellar mass and dust build-up over cosmic time relies on the accurate characterisation of the stellar population properties of high redsh…

Beyond orientation: Evidence for distinct physical regimes among Little Red Dots and Little Blue Dots

L. Barrufet, J. S. Dunlop, M. L. Hamadouche +6

Little Red Dots (LRDs) and Little Blue Dots (LBDs) may represent the same population of compact active galactic nuclei (AGN) observed along different lines of sight. We test this s…

A Census of the 200 Most Massive Galaxies Spectroscopically Observed with JWST at zspec 3-15

Mengyuan Xiao, Pascal A. Oesch, Longji Bing +26

Massive galaxies provide strong tests of galaxy formation models, yet a comprehensive spectroscopic view of their properties and demographics in the early Universe has remained elu…

JWST spectroscopy of galaxies at : Damped Ly absorbers reveal efficient star formation and hidden redshift biases

Kasper E. Heintz, Clara L. Pollock, Joris Witstok +23

Recent observations with JWST have revealed a remarkable population of surprisingly luminous galaxies at redshifts . Their abundance exceed predictions from simulations and e…

Chemical signatures from the first stars embedded in metal-poor gas in galaxies at cosmic dawn

Clara L. Pollock, Kasper E. Heintz, Elka Rusta +15

The first generation of stars formed from pristine, neutral hydrogen gas. The most massive of these exploded as supernovae within a few million years of their birth, producing the…

The ionised interstellar medium of DSFGs revealed by JWST/NIRSpec and ALMA: Super-solar metallicity, low ionisation parameters and, typical electron densities

Steven Gillman, Kei Ito, Francesco Valentino +25

We present a detailed study of near-infrared (2-4m) JWST/NIRSpec spectra of 48 high-redshift () galaxies detected with ALMA at . From a multi-wa…

Characterising Ly damping wings at the onset of reionisation: Evidence for highly efficient star formation driven by dense, neutral gas in UV-bright galaxies at

Clara L. Pollock, Kasper E. Heintz, Joris Witstok +23

One of the major conundrums in contemporary extragalactic astrophysics is the apparent overabundance of a remarkable population of UV-bright galaxies at redshifts . We…

DeepDive: Tracing the early quenching pathways of massive quiescent galaxies at from their star-formation histories and chemical abundances

Massissilia L. Hamadouche, Katherine E. Whitaker, Francesco Valentino +21

We investigate the chemical abundances and star-formation histories (SFH) of ten massive () quiescent galaxies at usi…

There and back again? Neutral outflows in z~3.5 quiescent galaxies

Pengpei Zhu, Kei Ito, Francesco Valentino +16

Neutral gas outflows play a crucial role in the baryon cycle of galaxies, their properties provide key insights into the transition from star formation to quiescence. In this work,…

Dynamical properties and star formation history of a low-mass quenched galaxy at Cosmic Noon

K. Ito, F. Valentino, W. M. Baker +12

We present the spectroscopic confirmation and in-depth analysis of AURORA-LQG1, a low-mass quiescent galaxy at with observed with…

Little Red Dot Host Galaxy Black Hole Star: A Gas-Enshrouded Heart at the Center of Every Little Red Dot

Wendy Q. Sun, Rohan P. Naidu, Jorryt Matthee +30

The central engines of Little Red Dots (LRDs) may be ``black hole stars" (BH*s), early stages of black hole growth characterized by dense gas envelopes. So far, the most direct evi…
