The JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey: Discovery of an Extreme Galaxy Overdensity at z = 5.4 with JWST/NIRCam in GOODS-S
(2024-02-13)
We report the discovery of an extreme galaxy overdensity at $z = 5.4$ in the GOODS-S field using JWST/NIRCam imaging from JADES and JEMS alongside JWST/NIRCam wide field slitless spectroscopy from FRESCO. We identified ...
Rapid Chemical Enrichment by Intermittent Star Formation in GN-z11
(2024-02-06)
We interpret the peculiar supersolar nitrogen abundance recently reported by the James Webb Space Telescope observations for GN-z11 (z = 10.6) using our state-of-the-art chemical evolution models. The observed CNO ratios ...
JADES: Detecting [OIII]$λ4363$ Emitters and Testing Strong Line Calibrations in the High-$z$ Universe with Ultra-deep JWST/NIRSpec Spectroscopy up to $z \sim 9.5$
(2024-02-02)
We present ten novel [OIII]λ4363 auroral line detections up to z ∼ 9.5 measured from ultra-deep JWST/NIRSpec MSA spectroscopy from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). We leverage the deepest spectroscopic ...
The most variable VVV sources: eruptive protostars, dipping giants in the Nuclear Disc and others
(2024-02-01)
We have performed a comprehensive search of a VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) data base of 9.5 yr light curves for variable sources with ΔKs ≥ 4 mag, aiming to provide a large sample of high amplitude eruptive young ...
Emergence and cosmic evolution of the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation driven by interstellar turbulence
(2024-01-31)
The scaling relations between the gas content and star formation rate of galaxies provide useful insights into the processes governing their formation and evolution. We investigated the emergence and the physical drivers ...
Exploring the radio-loudness of SDSS quasars with spectral stacking
(2024-01-22)
We use new 144 MHz observations over 5634 deg 2 from the LOFAR (Low Frequency Array) Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) to compile the largest sample of uniformly selected, spectroscopically confirmed quasars from the 14th data ...
BEAGLE-AGN I: simultaneous constraints on the properties of gas in star-forming and AGN narrow-line regions in galaxies
(2024-01-01)
We present the addition of nebular emission from the narrow-line regions (NLR) surrounding active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to beagle (BayEsian Analysis of GaLaxy sEds). Using a set of idealized spectra, we fit to a set of ...
Low-mass bursty galaxies in JADES efficiently produce ionizing photons and could represent the main drivers of reionization
(2024-01-01)
We use deep imaging from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) to study the evolution of the ionizing photon production efficiency, ζion. We estimate ζion for a sample of 677 galaxies at z ∼4-9 using NIRCam ...
Ultracool Spectroscopic Outliers in Gaia DR3
(2024-01-01)
Gaia DR3 provided a first release of RP spectra and astrophysical parameters for ultracool dwarfs (UCDs). We used these Gaia RP spectra and astrophysical parameters to select the most outlying UCDs. These objects have ...
Optimal metallicity diagnostics for MUSE observations of low-z galaxies
(2024-01-01)
The relatively red wavelength range (4800-9300 Å) of the VLT Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) limits which metallicity diagnostics can be used; in particular excluding those requiring the []λλ3726,29 doublet. We ...
