Outflows in the Early Universe: Neutral gas Absorption in Galaxies at z > 3 from low-resolution JWST Spectroscopy

Matteo Sapori, Sirio Belli, Letizia Bugiani +14

Recent JWST/NIRSpec observations have shown that Na I D absorption tracing neutral gas outflows is widespread in massive galaxies at Cosmic Noon (-), but their prevalenc…

Resolved Maps of Gas and Dust in a Massive Quiescent Galaxy at z=2 from INQUEST-JWST: Evidence of Accretion and Rejuvenation

Sai Gangula, Andrew B. Newman, Meng Gu +10

Quiescent galaxies in the distant universe exhibit a range of gas content that may indicate a variety of quenching processes are at play. Mapping the distribution and kinematics of…

Unraveling Chemical Enrichment in Extreme Emission-Line Galaxies: A Multi-Element Bayesian View of Bursty Star Formation and Galaxy Evolution in DESI

Razieh Emami, James A. A. Trussler, Tiger Yu-Yang Hsiao +11

Extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) probe chemical enrichment in low-mass, bursty systems where star formation, feedback, and gas accretion are poorly constrained. Using DESI DR…

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…

Death by Impact: Evidence for Merger-Driven Quenching in a Collisional Ring Galaxy at Cosmic Noon

Amir H. Khoram, Sirio Belli, Carlo Nipoti +7

The role of interactions and mergers in the rapid quenching of massive galaxies in the early Universe remains uncertain, largely due to the difficulty of directly linking mergers t…

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…
