EMBER: A Little Red Dot Candidate at in the Seed Black Hole Era

Takumi S. Tanaka, Hollis B. Akins, John D. Silverman +58

Little red dots (LRDs) are a newly discovered population that may trace rapidly growing black holes (BHs) and provide a link between seed BHs and luminous active galactic nuclei (A…

Resolving the ionizing photon budget crisis with JWST/NIRCam HII clumping constraints at z=6

Duncan Austin, Thomas Harvey, Christopher J. Conselice +18

We present a comprehensive study of the ionizing properties of 1721 galaxies at using deep JWST/NIRCam photometric imaging from the NEP, JADES, and PRIMER surveys spann…

Using white dwarf lensing to resolve accretion flows

Sophie L. Newman, Matthew J. Middleton, Adam McMaster

Microlensing is one of the most powerful tools for probing the nature of dark halo objects and the sources they lens. As our nearest massive galaxy, M31 provides a rich source popu…

The Nature of High-Redshift Massive Quiescent Galaxies -- Searching for RUBIES-UDS-QG-z7 in FLARES

Jack C. Turner, Will J. Roper, Aswin P. Vijayan +5

RUBIES-UDS-QG-z7 (RQG) is the earliest massive quiescent galaxy identified to date, inferred to have formed its abundant stellar mass in a single burst that ceases rapidly before $…

Physical properties of galaxies and the UV Luminosity Function from to in COSMOS-Web

Maximilien Franco, Caitlin M. Casey, Hollis B. Akins +37

We present measurements of the rest-frame ultraviolet luminosity function (UVLF) in three redshift bins over -14 from the JWST COSMOS-Web survey. Our samples, selected us…

Discovery of a Little Red Dot candidate at in COSMOS-Web based on MIRI-NIRCam selection

Takumi S. Tanaka, Hollis B. Akins, Yuichi Harikane +64

JWST has revealed a new high-redshift population called little red dots (LRDs). Since LRDs may be in the early phase of black hole growth, identifying them in the early universe is…

First Light And Reionization Epoch Simulations (FLARES) -- XIX: Supermassive black hole mergers in the early Universe and their environmental dependence

Shihong Liao, Dimitrios Irodotou, Maxwell G. A. Maltz +10

The upcoming space-based gravitational wave (GW) observatory, LISA, is expected to detect GW signals from supermassive black hole (SMBH) mergers occurring at high redshifts. Howeve…

A Swift analysis of the Eras tour set list and implications for astrophysics research (Taylor's version)

Sophie L. Newman, Ana Sainz de Murieta

Popular culture plays a significant role in shaping public interest in science, and Taylor Swift's discography frequently incorporates astrophysics terminology. This study examines…

The COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS) III: forecasts versus data

Natalie B. Hogg, James W. Nightingale, Quihan He +25

We compare forecasts for the abundance and properties of strong gravitational lenses in the COSMOS-Web survey, a deg survey of the COSMOS field using the NIRCam and MIRI…

FOOD I: A New Division Scheme For The Stelliferous Era

Stephen M. Wilkins, Sophie L. Newman, Will J. Roper

In recent years the James Webb Space Telescope has enabled the frontier of observational galaxy formation to push to ever higher redshift, deep within cosmic dawn. However, what is…
