An Investigation into the Selection and Colors of Little Red Dots and Active Galactic Nuclei

An Investigation into the Selection and Colors of Little Red Dots and Active Galactic Nuclei

Recently, a large number of compact sources at z  > 4 with blue UV slopes and extremely red rest-frame optical slopes have been found in James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) extragalactic surveys. As a subsample of these sources, commonly called “little red dots” (LRDs), have been spectroscopically...
