Luminosity function of quasars at from SDSS and DESI
Gaocheng Yin, Linhua Jiang, Zhiwei Pan +54
We present a study of the evolution of type 1 quasars at , covering the peak epoch of quasar activity. The quasar evolution has been extensively explored by a variety of…
JWST COSMOS-3D: Spectroscopic Census and Luminosity Function of [O III] Emitters at 6.75<z<9.05 in COSMOS
Romain A. Meyer, Feige Wang, Koki Kakiichi +38
We present a catalogue of spectroscopically selected [OIII]+Hb emitters at 6.75<z<9.05 and the resulting [OIII] 5008 Ã Luminosity Function (LF) in the COSMOS field. We leverage the…
Possible chemical signatures of first-star enrichment in a very 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…
ASPIRE: The Environments and Dark Matter Halos of Luminous Quasars in the Epoch of Reionization
Feige Wang, Jaclyn B. Champagne, Jiamu Huang +42
We present a systematic study of the environments of 25 luminous quasars at from the ASPIRE program. Using JWST/NIRCam WFSS data, we identified 487 galaxies at $5.3 \less…
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…
The Synthetic Absorption Line Spectral Almanac (SALSA)
Dylan Nelson, Celine Peroux, Philipp Richter +10
We create the first large-scale mock spectroscopic survey of gas absorption sightlines traversing the interstellar medium (ISM), circumgalactic medium (CGM), and intergalactic medi…
