Narrow-line diagnostics on ~20 LRDs indicate that stellar photoionization alone cannot explain the observed ratios in many objects, implying anisotropic ionizing radiation from complex gas geometry.

JWST data on LRDs and LBDs show AGN-like excitation, strong Lyα with broad components, and X-ray weakness, implying clumpy or equatorial geometries around growing black holes rather than complete gas envelopes.
Lower metallicity in high-redshift tori raises the X-ray escape fraction from Compton-thick obscurers, improving prospects for detecting z~10 AGNs.
LEGGOS presents a uniform framework that jointly models lensing, photometry, and integral-field spectroscopy to disentangle stellar populations in clumps of high-redshift lensed galaxies.

X-rays Mark the Spot: The Effects of Reduced Metallicity on X-ray AGN Obscuration at High Redshift
Lower metallicity in high-redshift tori raises the X-ray escape fraction from Compton-thick obscurers, improving prospects for detecting z~10 AGNs.
