Learning JWST. I. A Foundation Model for New Population Discoveries and Morphology-Aware Photometric Redshift Measurements in the JADES Survey

Jiani Ding, Minghao Yue, Yongda Zhu +2

We present FM-JADES-v1, a self-supervised foundation model for James Webb Space Telescope ({\em JWST}) deep-field science, trained with 482,444 objects from the {\em JWST} Advanced…

Super-Eddington Little Blue Dots May Reionize Helium Too Early

Christopher Cain, Brent Smith, Gibson B. Bowling +5

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has identified an abundant population of faint Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) at which display broad emission lines, compact morph…

A self-consistent analytical model for both the photoionization rate and reionization history

Christopher Cain, Kevin S. Croker, Anson D'Aloisio +4

Recent developments at the intersection of cosmology and astrophysics have highlighted the need for improved analytical models of observables that probe the Epoch of Reionization.…

Probing Direct Contributions of Galaxies and AGN to Cosmic Reionization in a Quasar Field J0226+0302 with JWST NIRCam and NIRSpec

Xiangyu Jin, Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang +19

We present JWST Cycle 2 NIRCam and NIRSpec observations in a quasar field J0226+0302 at z=6.5412 to probe the direct connections between the intergalactic medium (IGM), galaxies, a…

First-star imprints in a metal-poor galaxy overdensity near the end of reionization

Zihao Li, Koki Kakiichi, Lise Christensen +24

The first generation of stars, known as Population III (Pop III), formed from primordial gas consisting solely of hydrogen and helium and is believed to have emerged only a few hun…

Early metal-enriched baryon cycling before the midpoint of cosmic reionization

Yongda Zhu, Zhiyuan Ji, George D. Becker +13

Models predict that chemical enrichment and gas redistribution should begin rapidly once star formation starts, but direct constraints at the earliest epochs have been scarce. Here…
