High-z galaxies from JWST ERO

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

This paper highlights initial photometric analyses of JWST NIRCam imaging data in the sightline of SMACS0723, aiming to identify galaxies at redshift z>7.

Description

By applying a conservative Lyman-break selection followed by photometric-redshift analysis and visual inspection, we identify four F090W-dropout and two F150W-dropout sources, three of which were recently confirmed in an independent spectroscopic analysis to z=7.663, 7.665, and 8.499.

We then supplement our sample with a photometric-redshift selection, and identify five additional candidates at 7<zphot<13. The NIRCam images clearly resolve all sources and reveal their subgalactic components that were not resolved/detected in the previous imaging by Hubble Space Telescope. Our spectral energy distribution analysis reveals that the selected galaxies are characterized by young stellar populations (median age of ~50Myr) of subsolar metallicity (~0.2Z_{sun}_) and little dust attenuation (A_V_~0.5).

In several cases, we observe extreme H{beta}+[OIII] lines being captured in the F444W band and seen as color excess, which is consistent with their observed high star formation rate surface density. Eight of the 11 sources identified in this study appear in at least one of the recent studies (Adams+ 2023MNRAS.518.4755A; Atek+ 2023MNRAS.519.1201A; Donnan+ 2023MNRAS.518.6011D; Harikane+ 2023ApJS..265....5H; Yann+ 2023ApJ...942L...9Y) of the same fields, implying the high fidelity of our selection.

We crossmatch all high-z galaxy candidates presented in the five studies with our catalog and discuss the possible causes of discrepancy in the final lists.
