The ionizing properties of JWST's compact broad-line emitters
Sara Mascia, Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba +4
The recent JWST discovery of a numerous population of broad-line emitters (BLEs) at has reopened the question of whether sources other than faint galaxies contributed signifi…
Little Red Dots at z~2 in EIGER reveal a gentle decline with respect to their peak number density at z~5
Shrriya Kapoor, Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba +10
We report the discovery of a sample of little red dots (LRDs) at identified from deep JWST/NIRCam imaging and wide-field slitless spectroscopy over arcmin f…
The quasi-star model for Little Red Dots: potential and challenges
Fabrizio Gentile, Mauro Giavalisco, Emanuele Daddi +25
(Abridged) Little Red Dots (LRDs) are a class of sources discovered by JWST observationally defined by a "V-shaped" rest-frame UV-Optical SED, a compact or unresolved morphology, a…
A new sample of Little Red Dots at in DESI DR1: Broad Balmer lines, low ionization spectrum and no variability
Kevin Park, Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee +4
JWST has unveiled an abundant population of compact broad-line emitters largely at , the Little Red Dots (LRDs), which might represent a previously unprobed supermassive…
Using Ly Transmitted Spectrum to Probe IGM Transmission and Identify Ionized Structures in Cosmic Reionization
Weida Hu, Casey Papovich, Lu Shen +16
We present a study of intergalactic medium (IGM) transmission at using high-signal-to-noise JWST/NIRSpec prism spectroscopy of 143 galaxies at from the CAPE…
JWST Reveals Two Overmassive Black Hole Candidates in Dwarf Galaxies at z 0.7: Pushing Black Hole Searches into the Dwarf-Galaxy Regime
E. Iani, P. Rinaldi, A. Torralba +35
We report the discovery and characterization of two compact galaxies, Pelias and Neleus, at z ~ 0.71 and z ~ 0.75, identified in MACS J0416.1-2403 and GOODS-North. Both exhibit unu…
The Engine and its Flows: Little Red Dot spectra are shaped by the column densities of their gas envelopes
Jorryt Matthee, Alberto Torralba, Gabriele Pezzulli +23
JWST data have enabled the abundant identification of compact broad Balmer line sources nicknamed the Little Red Dots. While they share broad lines with active galactic nuclei, the…
A Black Hole Star at Cosmic Noon: Extreme Balmer break, photospheric continuum, and broad absorption by thick winds in a Little Red Dot at z=1.7
Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee, Andrea Weibel +12
Recent studies at high redshift have revealed an enigmatic class of Little Red Dots (LRDs) with extreme Balmer breaks, stronger than in any stellar atmosphere. However, it is uncle…
Rapid, out of equilibrium metal enrichment indicated by a flat mass-metallicity relation at z~6 from NIRCam grism spectroscopy
Gauri Kotiwale, Jorryt Matthee, Daichi Kashino +17
We aim to characterise the mass-metallicity relation (MZR) and the 3D correlation between stellar mass, metallicity and star-formation rate (SFR) known as the fundamental metallici…
The slope and scatter of the star forming main sequence at z~5 : reconciling observations with simulations
Claudia Di Cesare, Jorryt Matthee, Rohan P. Naidu +17
Galaxies exhibit a tight correlation between their star-formation rate and stellar mass over a wide redshift range known as the star-forming main sequence (SFMS). With JWST, we can…
The warm outer layer of a Little Red Dot as the source of [Fe II] and collisional Balmer lines with scattering wings
Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee, Gabriele Pezzulli +22
The population of the Little Red Dots (LRDs) may represent a key phase of supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth. A cocoon of dense excited gas is emerging as key component to expla…
A weak Ly halo for an extremely bright Little Red Dot: Indications of enshrouded SMBH growth
Alberto Torralba, Jorryt Matthee, Gabriele Pezzulli +13
The abundant population of "Little Red Dots" (LRDs)-compact objects with red UV to optical colors and broad Balmer lines at high redshift-is unveiling new insights into the propert…
