Picture an Astronomer: Best Practices for Retaining Talent in Astrophysics
Ava Polzin, Katherine E. Whitaker, C. Megan Urry +85
Women are consistently underrepresented in astrophysics yet are simultaneously subject to disproportionate attrition at every career stage. This disparity between demonstrated effi…
Little Red Dots host Black Hole Stars: A unified family of gas-reddened AGN revealed by JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy
Anna de Graaff, Raphael E. Hviding, Rohan P. Naidu +35
We use the DAWN JWST Archive to construct and characterise a sample of 146 little red dots (LRDs) across 2.0<z<9.3, selecting all sources with v-shaped UV-optical continua from NIR…
The Blue Jay Survey: Deep JWST Spectroscopy for a Representative Sample of Galaxies at Cosmic Noon
Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani, Minjung Park +17
We present the Blue Jay survey, a Cycle-1 JWST program aimed at studying the stellar and gas content of galaxies at Cosmic Noon. The survey consists of deep spectroscopy for 153 ta…
The first GLIMPSE of the faint galaxy population at Cosmic Dawn with JWST: The evolution of the ultraviolet luminosity function across z~9-15
Iryna Chemerynska, Hakim Atek, Lukas J. Furtak +27
Using ultra-deep JWST NIRCam imaging from the GLIMPSE Survey, enhanced by gravitational lensing of the AbellS1063 cluster, we investigate the faintest galaxies ever observed in the…
UNCOVER/MegaScience: No Evidence of Environmental Quenching in a z2.6 Proto-cluster
Richard Pan, Katherine A. Suess, Danilo Marchesini +22
Environmental quenching -- where interactions with other galaxies and/or the intra-cluster medium (ICM) suppress star formation in low-mass galaxies -- has been well-established as…
MINERVA: A NIRCam Medium Band and MIRI Imaging Survey to Unlock the Hidden Gems of the Distant Universe
Adam Muzzin, Katherine A. Suess, Danilo Marchesini +81
We present an overview of the MINERVA survey, a 259.8 hour (prime) and 127 hour (parallel) Cycle 4 treasury program on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). MINERVA is obtaining 8…
