Probing neutral outflows in z ~ 2 galaxies using JWST observations of Ca II H and K absorption lines
Caterina Liboni, Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani +12
Using deep JWST/NIRSpec spectra from the Blue Jay survey, we perform the first systematic investigation of neutral gas content in massive galaxies at Cosmic Noon based on the Ca II…
MISTRAL: a model for AGN winds from radiatively efficient accretion in cosmological simulations
Marion Farcy, Michaela Hirschmann, Rachel S. Somerville +11
Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is crucial for regulating galaxy evolution. Motivated by observations of broad absorption line winds from rapidly accreting supermassive…
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…
AGN Feedback in Quiescent Galaxies at Cosmic Noon Traced by Ionized Gas Emission
Letizia Bugiani, Sirio Belli, Minjung Park +17
We analyze ionized gas emission lines in deep rest-frame optical spectra of 16 quiescent galaxies at redshift observed with JWST/NIRSpec by the Blue Jay survey. Robust…
Widespread rapid quenching at cosmic noon revealed by JWST deep spectroscopy
Minjung Park, Sirio Belli, Charlie Conroy +16
Massive quiescent galaxies in the young universe are expected to be quenched rapidly, but it is unclear whether they all experience starbursts before quenching and what physical me…
