Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback in Quiescent Galaxies at Cosmic Noon Traced by Ionized Gas Emission

Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback in Quiescent Galaxies at Cosmic Noon Traced by Ionized Gas Emission

We analyze ionized gas emission lines in deep rest-frame optical spectra of 14 massive ( $\mathrm{log}{M}_{* }\gt 10.2$ M _⊙ ) quiescent galaxies at redshifts 1.7 <  z  < 3.5 observed with JWST/NIRSpec by the Blue Jay survey. Robust detection of emission lines in 71% of the sample indicates th...
