A first empirical derivation of the average dust attenuation law at 2<z<7
Giulia Rodighiero, Gaia Edes Esposito, Daniela Calzetti +10
Dust attenuation strongly affects the observed spectral energy distributions of galaxies, introducing significant uncertainties in the derivation of key physical properties such as…
JWST Reveals Two Overmassive Black Hole Candidates in Dwarf Galaxies at z 0.7: Pushing Black Hole Searches into the Dwarf-Galaxy Regime
E. Iani, P. Rinaldi, A. Torralba +35
We report the discovery and characterization of two compact galaxies, Pelias and Neleus, at z ~ 0.71 and z ~ 0.75, identified in MACS J0416.1-2403 and GOODS-North. Both exhibit unu…
EGS-z11-R0: a red, dust-rich galaxy at Cosmic Dawn
Giulia Rodighiero, Andrea Ferrara, Michele Catone +16
Context. Galaxies discovered by JWST at z > 10 are predominantly characterized by extremely blue rest-frame UV slopes. Conversely, the existence of dust-reddened systems at such ea…
Ultra High-Redshift or Closer-by, Dust-Obscured Galaxies? Deciphering the Nature of Faint, Previously Missed F200W-Dropouts in CEERS
G. Gandolfi, G. Rodighiero, L. Bisigello +42
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is revolutionizing our understanding of the Universe by unveiling faint, near-infrared dropouts previously beyond our reach, ranging from exce…
Mysteries of Capotauro: investigating the puzzling nature of an extreme F356W-dropout
Giovanni Gandolfi, Giulia Rodighiero, Marco Castellano +38
JWST has uncovered a diverse population of extreme near-infrared dropouts, including ultra high-redshift () galaxy candidates, dust-obscured galaxies challenging dust product…
Pushing JWST to the extremes: search and scrutiny of bright galaxy candidates at z15-30
M. Castellano, A. Fontana, E. Merlin +50
We designed customized Lyman-break color selection techniques to identify galaxy candidates in the redshift ranges and . The selection was pe…
