The Supersonic Project: Lighting Up the Faint End of the JWST UV Luminosity Function

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is capable of probing extremely early eras of our Universe, when the supersonic relative motions between dark matter and baryonic overdensities modulate structure formation ( z ≳ 10). We study low-mass galaxy formation, including this “stream velocity,” using hi...
