Efficient Ionizers with Low H β + [O iii ] Equivalent Widths: JADES Spectroscopy of a Peculiar High-redshift Population

Abstract:
Early JWST photometric studies discovered a population of UV-faint ( 700 Å) exclude the most metal-poor efficient ionizers and favor (1) more chemically enriched systems with comparable extreme radiation fields and (2) older starbursting systems. In contrast, metallicity degeneracies are reduced in Hα space, enabling the identification of these metal-poor efficient ionizers by their specific star formation rate.
