Published purpose

This project uses JWST/NIRCam and NIRSpec to map dust and warm (1000 – 4000 K) gas in the Perseus cluster – the archetype for radio-mode AGN feedback. By combining JWST data with extensive multiwavelength observations, the study will produce the first detailed dust map of a cluster core and reveal the origin of the multiphase gas shaped by black hole jets.
