Description
We recently identified a substantial population of galaxies at z>2 with comparatively red rest-frame optical colors. These distant red galaxies (DRGs) are efficiently selected by the simple observed color criterion Js-Ks>2.3. In this paper we present near-infrared spectroscopy with Keck NIRSPEC of six DRGs with previously measured redshifts 2.4

    A 20 kiloparsec bipolar Lyman α outflow from a radio galaxy at z = 2.95
    The study of ionized gas kinematics in high-z active galaxies plays a key part in our understanding of galactic evolution, in an age where nuclear activity was widespread and star formation close to its peak. We present a study of TXS 0952−217, a radio galaxy at z = 2.95, using VLT/MUSE integral field optical spectroscopy as part of a project aimed

    MUSE view of PDS 456: Kiloparsec-scale wind, extended ionized gas, and close environment
    PDS 456 is the most luminous (L bol ∼ 10 47 erg s −1) radio-quiet quasar at z < 0.3 and can be regarded as a local counterpart of the powerful quasars shining at Cosmic Noon. It hosts a strong nuclear X-ray ultra-fast (∼0.3c) outflow, and a massive and clumpy CO (3-2) molecular outflow extending up to ∼5 kpc from the nucleus. We analyzed the first

    The Complete CEERS Early Universe Galaxy Sample: A Surprisingly Slow Evolution of the Space Density of Bright Galaxies at z ∼ 8.5–14.5
    We present a sample of 88 candidate z ∼ 8.5–14.5 galaxies selected from the completed NIRCam imaging from the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science survey. These data cover ∼90 arcmin 2 (10 NIRCam pointings) in six broadband imaging filters and one medium-band imaging filter. With this sample we confirm at higher confidence early JWST conclusions
