McQuinn, Julian B. Muñoz, Priyamvada Natarajan, Alberto Saldana-Lopez, Katherine A. Suess, Marta Volonteri, Adi Zitrin

“…These properties indicate the presence of a nascent, metal-deficient young stellar population (<5 Myr) with a stellar mass of ≃10 ^5 M _⊙ . Intriguingly, this source deviates significantly from the extrapolated UV–metallicity relation derived from recent JWST observations at z = 4–10, consistent with UV enhancement by a top-heavy Pop III initial mass function or the presence of an extremely metal-poor active galactic nucleus. …”
