Measuring Emission Lines with JWST MegaScience Medium Bands: A New Window into Dust and Star Formation at Cosmic Noon

Measuring Emission Lines with JWST MegaScience Medium Bands: A New Window into Dust and Star Formation at Cosmic Noon

We demonstrate the power of JWST-NIRCam medium-band photometry to measure emission line fluxes and study the dust and star formation properties of galaxies at cosmic noon. In this work, we present photometric emission line measurements and spatially resolved maps of H α and Pa β for 14 galaxies at 1...
