Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The first generation of stars, known as Population III (Pop III), played a crucial role in the early Universe through their unique formation environment and metal-free composition. These stars can undergo chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE) due to fast rotation, becoming more […]
Kavli Affiliate: R. G. McMahon | First 5 Authors: Jiachen Jiang, Dominic J. Walton, Luigi C. Gallo, Andrew C. Fabian, Dirk Grupe | Summary: Narrow-line Seyfert 1 AGNs (NLS1s) represent a unique stage in the black hole growth history, characterised by low black hole masses of approximately $10^{6}$-$10^{8}$ solar masses and around-Eddington accretion rates. X-ray […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: A. Lola Danhaive, Sandro Tacchella, Hannah Übler, Anna de Graaff, Eiichi Egami | Summary: Recent studies of gas kinematics at high redshift have reported disky systems which appear to challenge models of galaxy formation, but it is unclear whether they are representative of the underlying galaxy population. […]
Kavli Affiliate: George Efstathiou | First 5 Authors: Jiten Dhandha, Thomas Gessey-Jones, Harry T. J. Bevins, Simon Pochinda, Anastasia Fialkov | Summary: In the current era of JWST, we continue to uncover a wealth of information about the Universe deep into the Epoch of Reionization. In this work, we run a suite of simulations using […]

In this work, we use a suite of simulations with 21cmSPACE, to explore the astrophysical properties of early […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Yoshinobu Fudamoto, Jakob M. Helton, Xiaojing Lin, Fengwu Sun, Peter Behroozi | Summary: We report the discovery of a galaxy proto-cluster candidate (dubbed MACS0416-OD-z8p5) at a spectroscopic redshift of $zsim8.47$, dating back to $sim550$Myr after the Big Bang. The observations are part of the JWST Cycle-3 treasury […]
Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: Francesco D’Eugenio, Francesco D’Eugenio, , , | Summary: We report the discovery of a remarkably large and luminous line-emitting nebula extending on either side of the Balmer-break galaxy JADES-GS-518794 at z=5.89, detected with JADES JWST/NIRCam imaging in [O III]$lambdalambda$4959,5007 and H$alpha$ and spectroscopically confirmed with NIRCam/WFSS thanks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Debora Sijacki | First 5 Authors: Francesco D’Eugenio, Roberto Maiolino, Michele Perna, Hannah Uebler, Xihan Ji | Summary: JWST spectroscopy has revealed a population of compact objects at redshifts $z=2$-9 with `v’-shaped spectral energy distributions, broad permitted lines, and, often, hydrogen Balmer absorption. Among these `Little Red Dots’ (LRDs), Abell2744-QSO1 at $z=7.04$ has […]

Kavli Affiliate: Roberto Maiolino | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Dust is a fundamental component of the interstellar medium (ISM) within galaxies, as dust grains are highly efficient absorbers of UV and optical photons. Accurately quantifying this obscuration is crucial for interpreting galaxy spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The extinction curves in […]
