On the dust temperatures of high-redshift galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Dust temperature is an important property of the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies. It is required when converting (sub)millimetre broad-band flux to total infrared luminosity (LIR), and hence star formation rate, in high-redshift galaxies. However,

Chemical abundances in high-redshift galaxies: a powerful new emission line diagnostic [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2016
This Letter presents a new, remarkably simple diagnostic specifically designed to derive chemical abundances for high redshift galaxies. It uses only the Hα$\mathrm{H}\alpha$, [N ii] and [S ii] emission lines, which can usually be observed in a single ...

Discovery and properties of ultra-high redshift galaxies (9 < z < 12) in the JWST ERO SMACS 0723 Field [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
We present a reduction and analysis of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) SMACS 0723 field using new post-launch calibrations to conduct a search for ultra-high-redshift galaxies (z > 9) present within the Epoch of Reionisation.

Dusty Starbursts Masquerading as Ultra-high Redshift Galaxies in JWST CEERS Observations [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
Lyman-break galaxy (LBG) candidates at z ≳ 10 are rapidly being identified in James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/NIRCam observations. Due to the (redshifted) break produced by neutral hydrogen absorption of rest-frame UV photons, these sources are ...

A UNIVERSAL, LOCAL STAR FORMATION LAW IN GALACTIC CLOUDS, NEARBY GALAXIES, HIGH-REDSHIFT DISKS, AND STARBURSTS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Star formation laws are rules that relate the rate of star formation in a particular region, either an entire galaxy or some portion of it, to the properties of the gas, or other galactic properties, in that region.

Stress testing ΛCDM with high-redshift galaxy candidates [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2022
Early James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) results suggest a high level of star formation in the first 500 million years of the Universe. A study of the available mass from dark matter haloes shows that unexpectedly high-mass JWST galaxy candidates may ...

“Direct” Gas-phase Metallicity in Local Analogs of High-redshift Galaxies: Empirical Metallicity Calibrations for High-redshift Star-forming Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
We study the direct gas-phase oxygen abundance using the well-detected auroral line [O iii]λ4363 in the stacked spectra of a sample of local analogs of high-redshift galaxies.

Dust Attenuation Curves in the Local Universe: Demographics and New Laws for Star-forming Galaxies and High-redshift Analogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We study the dust attenuation curves of 230,000 individual galaxies in the local universe, ranging from quiescent to intensely star-forming systems, using GALEX, SDSS, and WISE photometry calibrated on the Herschel ATLAS.

Massive and old quiescent galaxies at high redshift [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Aims. Questions of how massive quiescent galaxies rapidly assembled and how abundant they are at high redshift are increasingly important in the study of galaxy formation.

The HDUV Survey: A Revised Assessment of the Relationship between UV Slope and Dust Attenuation for High-redshift Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We use a newly assembled sample of 3545 star-forming galaxies with secure spectroscopic, grism, and photometric redshifts at z = 1.5–2.5 to constrain the relationship between UV slope (β) and dust attenuation (LIR/LUV ≡ IRX).
