Dead or Alive? How Bursty Star Formation and Patchy Dust Can Cause Temporary Quiescence in High-redshift Galaxies
The recent discovery of a galaxy at z = 7.3 with undetected optical emission lines and a blue UV-to-optical continuum ratio in JWST spectroscopy is surprising and needs to be explained physically. Here, we explore two possibilities that could cause such a seemingly quiescent ∼5 × 10 ^8 M _⊙ galaxy i...
