Ripples in the OCEANS: Broad Line Variability of Little Red Dots
Madisyn Brooks, Kelcey Davis, Jonathan R. Trump +16
Little Red Dots (LRDs) are a unique class of compact, red sources discovered in the JWST extragalactic deep fields. Determining if they are indeed powered by accreting supermassive…
Implications of Broad [O III] 4364 and UV Line Emission in Two Little Red Dots at z ~ 7 - 8
Casey Papovich, Kaila Ronayne, Weida Hu +17
We present deep, NIRSpec G140M and G395M spectroscopy of Little Red Dots (LRDs) at z = 6.68 and z = 8.35. Both LRDs show broad Balmer and [O III] 4364 emission. The broad [O III…
Deep Spectroscopic Follow-Up of Maisie's Galaxy -- A Typical Galaxy in the Early Universe
Rebecca L. Larson, Taylor A. Hutchison, Steven L. Finkelstein +26
The first several years of JWST observations have yielded surprisingly large numbers of bright galaxies, with follow-up spectroscopy of many of these sources implying extrem…
The MIRI Early Obscured-AGN Wide Survey (MEOW): A Population of Hidden AGN at Revealed by JWST/MIRI Imaging
Gene C. K. Leung, Anna-Christina Eilers, Ryan Endsley +25
We present the MIRI Early Obscured-AGN Wide Survey (MEOW), a JWST/MIRI imaging survey designed to detect dust-obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) across cosmic time, with a parti…
MEGA and SMILES Find Fewer Dusty Galaxies than Expected at Cosmic Noon
Bren E. Backhaus, Allison Kirkpatrick, Kurt Hamblin +10
We present infrared (IR) luminsosity functions (LFs) and resulting star formation rate densities using the JWST Mid-infrared Instrument (MIRI) observations from the MIRI EGS Galaxy…
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…
