GA-NIFS: ISM Properties and Metal Enrichment in a Merger-Driven Starburst During the Epoch of Reionisation Probed with JWST and ALMA
arxiv(2024)
Abstract
We present deep JWST/NIRSpec integral-field spectroscopy (IFS) and ALMA [CII]λ158μm observations of COS-3018, a star-forming galaxy at z∼6.85, as part of the GA-NIFS programme. Both G395H (R∼ 2700) and PRISM (R∼ 100) NIRSpec observations revealed that COS-3018 is comprised of three separate components detected in [OIII]λ5008, which we dub as Main, North and East, with stellar masses of 10^9.4 ± 0.1, 10^9.2 ± 0.07, 10^7.7 ± 0.15 M_⊙. We detect [OIII]λ5008, [OIII]λλ3727,29 and multiple Balmer lines in all three components together with [OIII]λ4363 in the Main and North components. This allows us to measure an ISM temperature of T_e= 1.27±0.07× 10^4 and T_e= 1.6±0.14× 10^4 K with densities of n_e = 1250±250 and n_e = 700±200 cm^-3, respectively. These deep observations allow us to measure an average metallicity of 12+log(O/H)=7.9–8.2 for the three components with the T_e-method. We do not find any significant evidence of metallicity gradients between the components. Furthermore, we also detect [NII]λ6585, one of the highest redshift detections of this emission line. We find that in a small, metal-poor clump 0.2 arcsec west of the North component, N/O is elevated compared to other regions, indicating that nitrogen enrichment originates from smaller substructures, possibly proto-globular clusters. [OIII]λ5008 kinematics show that this system is merging, which is probably driving the ongoing, luminous starburst.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
