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…
SIGNALS of Giant HII Regions: A Spatially Resolved Analysis of NGC 604
Ray Garner, Robert C. Kennicutt, Laurent Drissen +6
Observing giant HII regions at fine spatial scales uncovers detailed structures and reveals variations in ionization, abundance, and dynamical properties of ionized gas and the eff…
Ionized gas in NGC 4258: Exploring the AGN -- Star formation connection
D. Fernández-Arenas, L. Rousseau-Nepton, C. Robert +9
NGC 4258 is a prime target for studying feedback in Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (LLAGNs) due to its proximity and comprehensive multi-wavelength coverage. Using new Integ…
Optical Strong Line Ratios Cannot Distinguish Between Stellar Populations and Accreting Black Holes at High Ionization Parameters and Low Metallicities
Nikko J. Cleri, Grace M. Olivier, Bren E. Backhaus +24
High-redshift observations from JWST indicate that optical strong line ratios do not carry the same constraining power as they do at low redshifts. Critically, this prevents a sepa…
SIGNALS on the mixing of oxygen and nitrogen in the spiral galaxy NGC 6946
Fabio Bresolin, David Fernández-Arenas, Laurie Rousseau-Nepton +10
As part of the SIGNALS survey, which comprises a sample of approximately 40 nearby galaxies observed with the Fourier transform spectrometer SITELLE, we present a study of metal mi…
