EIGER. I. A Large Sample of [O iii]-emitting Galaxies at 5.3 < z < 6.9 and Direct Evidence for Local Reionization by Galaxies

We present a first sample of 117 [O iii ] λλ 4960, 5008–selected star-forming galaxies at 5.33 < z < 6.93 detected in JWST/NIRCam 3.5 μ m slitless spectroscopy of a $6\buildrel{\,\prime}\over{.} 5\,\times \,3\buildrel{\,\prime}\over{.} 4$ field centered on the hyperluminous quasar SDSS J0100+2...
