Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Andrew J. Bunker, Alex J. Cameron, Emma Curtis-Lake, Peter Jakobsen, Stefano Carniani | Summary: We describe the NIRSpec component of the JWST Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES), and provide deep spectroscopy of 253 sources targeted with the NIRSpec micro-shutter assembly in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field and surrounding […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Marcia J. Rieke, Brant E. Robertson, Sandro Tacchella, Kevin Hainline, Benjamin D. Johnson | Summary: JWST has revolutionized the field of extragalactic astronomy with its sensitive and high-resolution infrared view of the distant universe. Adding to the new legacy of JWST observations, we present the first NIRCam […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Roberto Maiolino, Hannah Uebler, Michele Perna, Jan Scholtz, Francesco D’Eugenio | Summary: Finding the first generation of stars formed out of pristine gas in the early Universe, known as Population III (PopIII) stars, is one of the most important goals of modern astrophysics. Recent models have suggested […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Gabriel Maheson, Roberto Maiolino, Mirko Curti, Ryan Sanders, Sandro Tacchella | Summary: We explore the dependence of dust attenuation, as traced by the $rm H_{alpha}/rm H_{beta}$ Balmer decrement, on galactic properties by using a large sample of SDSS spectra. We use both Partial Correlation Coefficients (PCC) and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Zhiyuan Ji, Christina C. Williams, Sandro Tacchella, Katherine A. Suess, William M. Baker | Summary: We present a spatially resolved study of stellar populations in 6 galaxies with stellar masses $M_*sim10^{10}M_odot$ at $zsim3.7$ using 14-filter JWST/NIRCam imaging from the JADES and JEMS surveys. The 6 galaxies are […]

Kavli Affiliate: E. P. S. Shellard | First 5 Authors: Wuhyun Sohn, James R. Fergusson, E. P. S. Shellard, , | Summary: We present a new independent pipeline for the CMB bispectrum estimation of primordial non-Gaussianity and release a public code for constraining bispectrum shapes of interest based on the Planck 2018 temperature and polarization […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Raffaella Schneider, Rosa Valiante, Alessandro Trinca, Luca Graziani, Marta Volonteri | Summary: JWST is unveiling for the first time accreting black holes (BHs) with masses of 10^6 – 10^7 Msun at z > 4, with the most distant residing in GNz11 at z = 10.6. Are we […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Roberto Maiolino, Jan Scholtz, Joris Witstok, Stefano Carniani, Francesco D’Eugenio | Summary: Multiple theories have been proposed to describe the formation of black hole seeds in the early Universe and to explain the emergence of very massive black holes observed in the first billion years after Big […]

Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Jake S. Bennett, Debora Sijacki, Tiago Costa, Nicolas Laporte, Callum Witten | Summary: High-redshift quasars ($zgtrsim6$), powered by black holes (BHs) with large inferred masses, imply rapid BH growth in the early Universe. The most extreme examples have inferred masses of $sim ! 10^9,$M$_odot$ at $z = […]
