Towards Unbreaking the Universe: MINERVA Measurements of Color Gradients in Massive Quiescent Galaxies Can Help Ease Too-Early Star Formation Tensions
Sam E. Cutler, Luke Robbins, Danilo Marchesini +41
The discovery of a population of massive, ancient quiescent galaxies within the first 2 Gyr of the Universe's history has led to significant tensions with models of galaxy formatio…
The Missing Hard Photons of Little Red Dots: Their Incident Ionizing Spectra Resemble Massive Stars
Bingjie Wang, Joel Leja, Harley Katz +11
The nature of Little Red Dots (LRDs) has largely been investigated through their continuum emission, with lines assumed to arise from a broad-line region. In this paper, we instead…
Taking a Break at Cosmic Noon: Continuum-selected Low-mass Galaxies Require Long Burst Cycles
Abby Mintz, David J. Setton, Jenny E. Greene +25
While bursty star formation in low-mass galaxies has been observed in local populations and reproduced in simulations, the dormant phase of the burst cycle has not been well studie…
Everything Every Band All at Once I: A Global Morphology Catalog in Abell 2744 based on UNCOVER/MegaScience
Yunchong Zhang, Tim B. Miller, Sedona H. Price +31
We present spectrally-resolved structural parameter measurements of 28,274 sources from the legacy lensing field of Abell 2744, quantifying global structures from observed $0.7 μm…
UNCOVER/MegaScience: No Evidence of Environmental Quenching in a z2.6 Proto-cluster
Richard Pan, Katherine A. Suess, Danilo Marchesini +22
Environmental quenching -- where interactions with other galaxies and/or the intra-cluster medium (ICM) suppress star formation in low-mass galaxies -- has been well-established as…
RUBIES: A Spectroscopic Census of Little Red Dots; All V-Shaped Point Sources Have Broad Lines
Raphael E. Hviding, Anna de Graaff, Tim B. Miller +16
The physical nature of Little Red Dots (LRDs) - a population of compact, red galaxies revealed by JWST - remains unclear. Photometric samples are constructed from varying selection…
