Klimt : inspired by Van Gogh, Rodin, Matisse
\"Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) is renowned for his two-dimensional, ornamental works, which made him famous worldwide as the most important representative of Viennese Art Nouveau. This volume provides insight into the artistic influences of the great artists of Modernism who helped to form his remarkable oeuvre. Vienna in 1900 - the Vienna Secession, galleries, private art collectors and art magazines - introduced the art of the European avant-garde into Gustav Klimt's surroundings. The Viennese artist was open to the pictorial language of his contemporaries including Alma-Tadema, Minne, Rodin, Toorop, Hodler, Van Gogh, Monet, Khnopff, Toulouse-Lautrec, Whistler, Matisse and many others, and adapted elements from a variety of styles. The publication presents in large-format illustrations the works of Klimt and artists who were close to him, revealing significant and often surprising parallels.\" -- Provided by publisher.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic Star Formation Rate Density 300 Myr after the Big Bang
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field, the deepest imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of ancillary Hubble Space Telescope optical images (five filters spanning 0.4–0.9 μm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5 μm, including seven medium-band filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hr per filter. We combine all our data at >2.3 μm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈31.4 AB mag in the stack and 30.3–31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.″1 circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts z = 11.5−15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R 1/2 ∼ 50−200 pc, stellar masses of M ⋆ ∼ 107−108 M ☉, and star formation rates ∼ 0.1−1 M ☉ yr−1. Our search finds no candidates at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward-modeling approach to infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the impact of nondetections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results, and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼2.5 from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

JEMS: A Deep Medium-band Imaging Survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field with JWST NIRCam and NIRISS
We present JWST Extragalactic Medium-band Survey, the first public medium-band imaging survey carried out using JWST/NIRCam and NIRISS. These observations use ∼2 and ∼4 μm medium-band filters (NIRCam F182M, F210M, F430M, F460M, F480M; and NIRISS F430M and F480M in parallel) over 15.6 arcmin2 in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UDF), thereby building on the deepest multiwavelength public data sets available anywhere on the sky. We describe our science goals, survey design, NIRCam and NIRISS image reduction methods, and describe our first data release of the science-ready mosaics, which reach 5σ point-source limits (AB mag) of ∼29.3–29.4 in 2 μm filters and ∼28.2–28.7 at 4 μm. Our chosen filters create a JWST imaging survey in the UDF that enables novel analysis of a range of spectral features potentially across the redshift range of 0.3 < z < 20, including Paschen-α, Hα+[N ii], and [O iii]+Hβ emission at high spatial resolution. We find that our JWST medium-band imaging efficiently identifies strong line emitters (medium-band colors >1 mag) across redshifts 1.5 < z < 9.3, most prominently Hα+[N ii] and [O iii]+Hβ. We present our first data release including science-ready mosaics of each medium-band image available to the community, adding to the legacy value of past and future surveys in the UDF. This survey demonstrates the power of medium-band imaging with JWST, informing future extragalactic survey strategies using JWST observations.

JWST UNCOVER: Extremely Red and Compact Object at z phot ≃ 7.6 Triply Imaged by A2744
Recent JWST/NIRCam imaging taken for the ultra-deep UNCOVER program reveals a very red dropout object at z phot ≃ 7.6, triply imaged by the galaxy cluster A2744 (z d = 0.308). All three images are very compact, i.e., unresolved, with a delensed size upper limit of r e ≲ 35 pc. The images have apparent magnitudes of m F444W ∼ 25−26 AB, and the magnification-corrected absolute UV magnitude of the source is M UV,1450 = −16.81 ± 0.09. From the sum of observed fluxes and from a spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis, we obtain estimates of the bolometric luminosities of the source of L bol ≳ 1043 erg s−1 and L bol ∼ 1044–1046 erg s−1, respectively. Based on its compact, point-like appearance, its position in color–color space, and the SED analysis, we tentatively conclude that this object is a UV-faint dust-obscured quasar-like object, i.e., an active galactic nucleus at high redshift. We also discuss other alternative origins for the object’s emission features, including a massive star cluster, Population III, supermassive, or dark stars, or a direct-collapse black hole. Although populations of red galaxies at similar photometric redshifts have been detected with JWST, this object is unique in that its high-redshift nature is corroborated geometrically by lensing, that it is unresolved despite being magnified—and thus intrinsically even more compact—and that it occupies notably distinct regions in both size–luminosity and color–color space. Planned UNCOVER JWST/NIRSpec observations, scheduled in Cycle 1, will enable a more detailed analysis of this object.

UNCOVER: A NIRSpec Identification of a Broad-line AGN at z = 8.50
Deep observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have revealed an emerging population of red pointlike sources that could provide a link between the postulated supermassive black hole seeds and observed quasars. In this work, we present a JWST/NIRSpec spectrum from the JWST Cycle 1 UNCOVER Treasury survey of a massive accreting black hole at z = 8.50 displaying a clear broad-line component as inferred from the Hβ line with FWHM = 3439 ± 413 km s−1, typical of the broad-line region of an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The AGN nature of this object is further supported by high ionization, as inferred from emission lines, and a point-source morphology. We compute a black hole mass of log10(MBH/M⊙)=8.17±0.42 and a bolometric luminosity of L bol ∼ 6.6 × 1045 erg s−1. These values imply that our object is accreting at ∼40% of the Eddington limit. Detailed modeling of the spectral energy distribution in the optical and near-infrared, together with constraints from ALMA, indicate an upper limit on the stellar mass of log10(M*/M⊙)<8.7 , which would lead to an unprecedented ratio of black hole to host mass of at least ∼30%. This is orders of magnitude higher compared to the local QSOs but consistent with recent AGN studies at high redshift with JWST. This finding suggests that a nonnegligible fraction of supermassive black holes either started out from massive seeds and/or grew at a super-Eddington rate at high redshift. Given the predicted number densities of high-z faint AGN, future NIRSpec observations of larger samples will allow us to further investigate galaxy–black hole coevolution in the early Universe.

Deep Rest-UV JWST/NIRSpec Spectroscopy of Early Galaxies: The Demographics of C iv and N-emitters in the Reionization Era
JWST has recently discovered a subset of reionization era galaxies with ionized gas that is metal-poor in oxygen and carbon but heavily enriched in nitrogen. This abundance pattern is almost never seen in lower-redshift galaxies but is commonly observed in globular cluster stars. We have recently demonstrated that this peculiar abundance pattern appears in a compact (≃20 pc) metal-poor galaxy undergoing a strong burst of star formation. This galaxy was originally selected based on strong C iv emission, indicating a hard radiation field rarely seen locally. In this paper, we present JWST/NIRSpec observations of another reionization-era galaxy known to power strong C iv emission, the z = 7.04 gravitationally lensed galaxy A1703-zd6. The emission-line spectrum reveals this is a metal-poor galaxy ( 12+log(O/H)=7.47±0.19 ) dominated by a young stellar population ( 1.6−0.4+0.5 Myr) that powers a very hard ionizing spectrum (C iv equivalent width, EW = 19.4 Å, He ii EW = 2.2 Å). The interstellar medium is highly enriched in nitrogen ( log(N/O)=−0.6 ) with very high electron densities (8–19 × 104 cm−3) and extreme ionization conditions rarely seen at lower redshift. We also find intense CIV emission (EW ≳ 20 Å) in two new z ≳ 6 metal-poor galaxies. To put these results in context, we search for UV line emission in a sample of 737 z ≳ 4 galaxies with NIRSpec spectra, establishing that 40%(30%) of systems with [O iii]+Hβ EW > 2000 Å have N iv] (C iv) detections with EW > 5 Å(> 10 Å). These results suggest high N/O ratios, and hard ionizing sources appear in a brief phase following a burst of star formation in compact high-density stellar complexes.

First Sample of Hα+O iiiλ5007 Line Emitters at z > 6 Through JWST/NIRCam Slitless Spectroscopy: Physical Properties and Line-luminosity Functions
We present a sample of four emission-line galaxies at z = 6.11–6.35 that were serendipitously discovered using the commissioning data for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopy mode. One of them (at z = 6.11) has been reported previously, while the others are new discoveries. These sources are selected by the secure detections of both [O iii] λ5007 and Hα lines with other fainter lines, which were tentatively detected in some cases (e.g., [O ii] λ3727, [O iii] λ4959). In the [O iii]/Hβ–[N ii]/Hα Baldwin–Phillips–Terlevich diagram, these galaxies occupy the same parameter space as that of z ∼ 2 star-forming galaxies, indicating that they have been enriched rapidly to subsolar metallicities (∼0.4 Z ⊙), similar to galaxies with comparable stellar masses at much lower redshifts. The detection of strong Hα lines suggests a higher ionizing photon production efficiency within galaxies in the early universe. We find brightening of the [O iii] λ5007 line-luminosity function (LF) from z = 3 to 6, and weak or no redshift evolution of the Hα line LF from z = 2 to 6. Both LFs are underpredicted at z ∼ 6 by a factor of ∼10 in certain cosmological simulations. This further indicates a global Lyα photon escape fraction of 7%–10% at z ∼ 6, which is slightly lower than previous estimates through the comparison of the UV-derived star formation rate density and Lyα luminosity density. Our sample recovers 66−44+128 % of z = 6.0–6.6 galaxies in the survey volume with stellar masses greater than 5 × 108 M ⊙, suggesting the ubiquity of strong Hα and [O iii] line emitters in the Epoch of Reionization, which will be further uncovered in the era of JWST.

Medium Bands, Mega Science: A JWST/NIRCam Medium-band Imaging Survey of A2744
In this paper, we describe the “Medium Bands, Mega Science” JWST Cycle 2 survey (JWST-GO-4111) and demonstrate the power of these data to reveal both the spatially integrated and spatially resolved properties of galaxies from the local Universe to the era of cosmic dawn. Executed in 2023 November, MegaScience obtained ∼30 arcmin2 of deep multiband NIRCam imaging centered on the z ∼ 0.3 A2744 cluster, including 11 medium-band filters and the two shortest-wavelength broadband filters, F070W and F090W. Together, MegaScience and the UNCOVER Cycle 1 treasury program provide a complete set of deep (∼28–30 magAB) images in all NIRCam medium- and broadband filters. This unique data set allows us to precisely constrain photometric redshifts, map stellar populations and dust attenuation for large samples of distant galaxies, and examine the connection between galaxy structures and formation histories. MegaScience also includes ∼17 arcmin2 of NIRISS parallel imaging in two broadband and four medium-band filters from 0.9 to 4.8 μm, expanding the footprint where robust spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting is possible. We provide example SEDs and multiband cutouts at a variety of redshifts, and use a catalog of JWST spectroscopic redshifts to show that MegaScience improves both the scatter and catastrophic outlier rate of photometric redshifts by factors of 2–3. Additionally, we demonstrate the spatially resolved science enabled by MegaScience by presenting maps of the [O iii] line emission and continuum emission in three spectroscopically confirmed z > 6 galaxies. We show that line emission in reionization-era galaxies can be clumpy, extended, and spatially offset from continuum emission, implying that galaxy assembly histories are complex even at these early epochs. We publicly release fully reduced mosaics and photometric catalogs for both the NIRCam primary and NIRISS parallel fields (jwst-uncover.github.io/megascience).

Detection of O iii88 μm in JADES-GS-z14-0 at z = 14.1793
We report the first successful Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) follow-up observations of a secure z > 10 JWST-selected galaxy, by robustly detecting (6.6σ) the [O iii]88 μm line in JADES-GS-z14-0 (hereafter GS-z14). The ALMA detection yields a spectroscopic redshift of z = 14.1793 ± 0.0007, and increases the precision on the prior redshift measurement of z=14.32−0.20+0.08 from NIRSpec by ≳180×. Moreover, the redshift is consistent with that previously determined from a tentative detection (3.6σ) of C iii]1907,1909 (z = 14.178 ± 0.013), solidifying the redshift determination via multiple line detections. We measure a line luminosity of L[O iii]88 = (2.1 ± 0.5) × 108 L⊙, placing GS-z14 at the lower end, but within the scatter of, the local L[O iii]88–star formation rate relation. No dust continuum from GS-z14 is detected, suggesting an upper limit on the dust-to-stellar mass ratio of <2 × 10−3, consistent with dust production from supernovae with a yield yd < 0.3 M⊙. Combining a previous JWST/MIRI photometric measurement of the [O iii]λλ4959,5007 Å and Hβ lines with Cloudy models, we find GS-z14 to be surprisingly metal-enriched (Z ∼ 0.05–0.2 Z⊙) a mere 300 Myr after the Big Bang. The detection of a bright oxygen line in GS-z14 thus reinforces the notion that galaxies in the early Universe undergo rapid evolution.

ALMA as a Redshift Machine: Using C ii to Efficiently Confirm Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization
The [C ii]158μm line has long been proposed as a promising line to spectroscopically confirm galaxies in the epoch of reionization. In this paper, we present the results of new ALMA observations spectral scanning for [C ii] in six particularly luminous Lyman-break galaxies at z ∼ 7. The six sources were drawn from a sample of bright z ∼ 7 galaxies identified using the wide-area optical, near-IR, and Spitzer/IRAC data over the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field and were targeted on the basis of tight constraints on their redshifts from their IRAC [3.6]–[4.5] colors. We detect significant (>9σ) [C ii] lines in three of our six targets (50%) cospatial with the rest-UV emission from the ground/space-based near-IR imaging. The luminosities of the [C ii] lines lie in the range 5.6–8.8 × 108 L ⊙, consistent with the local [C ii]–SFR relation. Meanwhile, their [C ii]/L IR ∼ 1–3 × 10−3 ratios are slightly elevated compared to local (U)LIRGS. This could be due to lower dust-to-gas or dust-to-metal ratios. We also find that our sources display a large kinematic diversity, with one source showing signs of rotation, one source a likely major merger, and one dispersion-dominated source that might contain a bright star-forming clump. Our results highlight the effectiveness of spectral scans with ALMA in spectroscopically confirming luminous galaxies in the epoch of reionization, something that is being be applied on a significantly larger sample in the ongoing REBELS large program.
