A Lens Finder Map to check claimed High-z Galaxies behind SMACS J0723.3-7327

Alex Chow, Sung Kei Li, Tom Broadhurst +5

The first science image released by the JWST reveals numerous galaxies in the distant background of the galaxy cluster SMACS J0723.3-7327. Some have claimed redshifts of up to $z \…

PEARLS: JWST counterparts of micro-Jy radio sources in the Time Domain Field

S. P. Willner, H. B. Gim, M. del Carmen Polletta +38

The Time Domain Field (TDF) near the North Ecliptic Pole in JWST's continuous-viewing zone will become a premier "blank field" for extragalactic science. JWST/NIRCam data in a 16 a…

PEARLS: A Potentially Isolated Quiescent Dwarf Galaxy with a TRGB Distance of 30 Mpc

Timothy Carleton, Timothy Ellsworth-Bowers, Rogier A. Windhorst +25

A wealth of observations have long suggested that the vast majority of isolated classical dwarf galaxies (- M) are currently star-forming. However, recent o…

EPOCHS VII: Discovery of high redshift () AGN candidates in JWST ERO and PEARLS data

Ignas Juodžbalis, Christopher J. Conselice, Maitrayee Singh +24

We present an analysis of a sample of robust high redshift galaxies selected photometrically from the `blank' fields of the Prime Extragalactic Areas for Reionization Science (PEAR…

EPOCHS IX. When cosmic dawn breaks: Evidence for evolved stellar populations in galaxies from PEARLS GTO and public NIRCam imaging

James A. A. Trussler, Christopher J. Conselice, Nathan Adams +28

The presence of evolved stars in high-redshift galaxies can place valuable indirect constraints on the onset of star formation in the Universe. Thus we use PEARLS GTO and public NI…

A search for high-redshift direct-collapse black hole candidates in the PEARLS north ecliptic pole field

Armin Nabizadeh, Erik Zackrisson, Fabio Pacucci +31

Direct-collapse black holes (DCBHs) of mass - that form in HI-cooling halos in the early Universe are promising progenitors of the $\gtrsim 10^9 {M}_\odo…

JWST's PEARLS: Mothra, a new kaiju star at z=2.091 extremely magnified by MACS0416, and implications for dark matter models

J. M. Diego, Bangzheng Sun, Haojing Yan +28

We report the discovery of Mothra, an extremely magnified monster star, likely a binary system of two supergiant stars, in one of the strongly lensed galaxies behind the galaxy clu…

Hidden giants in JWST's PEARLS: An ultra-massive z=4.26 sub-millimeter galaxy that is invisible to HST

Ian Smail, Ugne Dudzeviciute, Mark Gurwell +32

We present a multi-wavelength analysis using SMA, JCMT, NOEMA, JWST, HST, and SST of two dusty strongly star-forming galaxies, 850.1 and 850.2, seen through the massive cluster len…

Dynamic Wisp Removal in JWST NIRCam Images

A. S. G. Robotham, J. C. J. D'Silva, R. A. Windhorst +5

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) near-infrared camera (NIRCam) has been found to exhibit serious wisp-like structures in four of its eight short-wavelength detectors. The exac…

PEARLS: Low Stellar Density Galaxies in the El Gordo Cluster Observed with JWST

Timothy Carleton, Seth H. Cohen, Brenda Frye +23

A full understanding of how unusually large "Ultra Diffuse Galaxies" (UDGs) fit into our conventional understanding of dwarf galaxies remains elusive, despite the large number of o…
