Abstract

We present the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey, a 77.2 hr Director’s Discretionary Early Release Science Program. CEERS demonstrates, tests, and validates efficient extragalactic surveys using coordinated, overlapping parallel observations with the JWST instrument suite, including NIRCam and MIRI imaging, NIRSpec low- (R ∼ 100) and medium- (R ∼ 1000) resolution spectroscopy, and NIRCam slitless grism (R ∼ 1500) spectroscopy. CEERS targets the Hubble Space Telescope–observed region of the Extended Groth Strip field, supported by a rich set of multiwavelength data. CEERS facilitated immediate community science in both of the extragalactic core JWST science drivers “First Light” and “Galaxy Assembly,” including: (1) the discovery and characterization of large samples of galaxies at z ≳ 10 from ∼90 arcmin2 of NIRCam imaging, constraining their abundance and physical nature; (2) deep spectra of >1000 galaxies, including dozens of galaxies at 6 < z < 10, enabling redshift measurements and constraints on the physical conditions of star formation and black hole growth via line diagnostics; (3) quantifying the first bulge, bar, and disk structures at z > 3; and (4) characterizing galaxy mid-IR emission with MIRI to study dust-obscured star formation and supermassive black hole growth at z ∼ 1–3. As a legacy product for the community, the CEERS team has provided several data releases, accompanied by detailed notes on the data reduction procedures and notebooks to aid in reproducibility. In addition to an overview of the survey and the quality of the data, we provide science highlights from the first two years with CEERS data.
宇宙演化早期释放科学调查(CEERS)
我们提出了宇宙进化早期释放科学(CEERS)调查,这是一个77.2小时的导演自由支配的早期释放科学计划。CEERS使用JWST仪器套件,包括NIRCam和MIRI成像,NIRSpec低(R ~ 100)和中(R ~ 1000)分辨率光谱,以及NIRCam无缝隙光栅(R ~ 1500)光谱,协调,重叠平行观测,演示,测试和验证有效的河外巡天。CEERS的目标是哈勃太空望远镜观测到的扩展生长带场区域,由一组丰富的多波长数据支持。CEERS促进了星系外核心JWST科学驱动程序“第一光”和“星系集合”的直接社区科学,包括:(1)从NIRCam成像的~ 90 arcmin2中发现和表征z≥10的大样本星系,限制了它们的丰度和物理性质;(2) bbb1000个星系的深光谱,包括6 < z < 10的几十个星系,实现了红移测量,并通过线诊断限制了恒星形成和黑洞生长的物理条件;(3)量化z bbbb3处的第一凸起、棒状和盘状结构;(4)利用MIRI表征星系中红外发射,研究z ~ 1-3处尘埃遮挡的恒星形成和超大质量黑洞的生长。作为社区的遗留产品,CEERS团队提供了几个数据版本,并附有关于数据简化程序的详细说明和笔记本,以帮助再现性。除了概述调查和数据质量外,我们还提供了前两年CEERS数据的科学亮点。
