Local Analogs of Primordial Galaxies: In Search of Intermediate-mass Black Holes with JWST NIRSpec

Local Analogs of Primordial Galaxies: In Search of Intermediate-mass Black Holes with JWST NIRSpec

Local low-metallicity galaxies with signatures of possible accretion activity are ideal laboratories in which to search for the lowest-mass black holes and study their impact on the host galaxy. Here we present the first JWST NIRSpec IFS observations of SDSS J120122.30+021108.3, a nearby ( z = 0.003...
