Spectroscopic confirmation of four metal-poor galaxies at z=10.3-13.2
Emma Curtis-Lake, Stefano Carniani, Alex Cameron +56
Finding and characterising the first galaxies that illuminated the early Universe at cosmic dawn is pivotal to understand the physical conditions and the processes that led to the…
Identification and properties of intense star-forming galaxies at redshifts z>10
B. E. Robertson, S. Tacchella, B. D. Johnson +53
Surveys with James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have discovered candidate galaxies in the first 400 Myr of cosmic time. Preliminary indications have suggested these candidate galaxi…
Astrometric and Wavelength Calibration of the NIRSpec Instrument during Commissioning using a model-based approach
Nora Lützgendorf, Giovanna Giardino, Catarina Alves de Oliveira +11
The NIRSpec instrument for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a highly versatile near-infrared spectrograph that can be operated in various observing modes, slit apertures, a…
Optical throughput and sensitivity of JWST NIRSpec
G. Giardino, R. Bhatawdekar, S. M. Birkmann +13
To achieve its ambitious scientific goals, the Near-Infrared Spectrograph, NIRSpec, on board the Webb Space Telescope, needs to meet very demanding throughput requirements, here qu…
In-flight performance of the NIRSpec Micro Shutter Array
Timothy D. Rawle, Giovanna Giardino, David E. Franz +33
The NIRSpec instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) brings the first multi-object spectrograph (MOS) into space, enabled by a programmable Micro Shutter Array (MSA) of…
In-orbit Commissioning of the Near-Infrared Spectrograph on the James Webb Space Telescope
Torsten Böker, Yasin Abul-Huda, Martin Altenburg +41
The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) is one of the four focal plane instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope which was launched on Dec. 25, 2021. We present an overview of…
