چکیده

We present the first search for $z\geqslant7$, continuum-confirmed sources with NIRISS/WFS spectroscopy over Abell 2744 Frontier Fields cluster, as part of GLASS-JWST ERS survey. With $\sim15$ hrs pre-imaging and multi-angle grism exposures in F115W, F150W, F200W filters, we describe general data handling (i.e., reduction, cleaning, modeling, extraction processes) analysis showcase power JWST to peer deep into reionization, when most intergalactic hydrogen is neutral, by confirming two galaxies at $z=8.04\pm0.15$ $z=7.90\pm0.13$ means their Lyman breaks.

Dust emission from the lensed Lyman break galaxy cB 58

We detect 1.2mm continuum emission from dust in the gravitationally lensed Lyman break galaxy MS1512+36-cB58. Our detected flux is surprisingly low: relative to local starburst galaxies, cB58 appears to produce somewhat less far-IR emission than its UV reddening predicts. After comparing several different estimates of the source’s dust content, we conclude that the apparent discrepancy is most ...

Internal dynamics of the radio halo cluster Abell 2744

Aims. We present a detailed dynamical analysis of the rich galaxy cluster A2744, containing a powerful diffuse radio halo. Methods. Our analysis is based on redshift data for 102 galaxies, part of them recovered from unexplored spectra in the ESO archive. We combine galaxy velocity and position information to select the cluster members and determine global dynamical properties of the cluster. W...

CO line emission from Lyman break galaxies

Context. The detection of the rotational lines of CO in proto-galaxies in the early Universe provides one of the most promising ways of probing the fundamental physical properties of a galaxy, such as its size, dynamical mass, gas density, and temperature. While such observations are currently limited to the most luminous galaxies, the advent of ALMA will change the situation dramatically, resu...

Lyman Break Galaxies in the NGST Era

With SIRTF and NGST in the offing, it is interesting to examine what the stellar populations of z ≈ 3 galaxies models imply for the existence and nature of Lyman-break galaxies at higher redshift. To this end, we “turn back the clock” on the stellar population models that have been fit to optical and infrared data of Lymanbreak galaxies at z ≈ 3 . The generally young ages (typically 108±0.5 yr)...

Spitzer View of Lyman Break Galaxies

Using a combination of deep MID-IR observations obtained by IRAC, MIPS and IRS on board Spitzer we investigate the MID-IR properties of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) at z∼3, establish a better understanding of their nature and attempt a complete characterisation of the population. With deep mid-infrared and optical observations of ∼1000 LBGs covered by IRAC/MIPS and from the ground respectively, ...
