Abstract

We present the robust selection of quiescent (QG) and post-starburst (PSB) galaxies using ultra-deep NIRCam and MIRI imaging from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). Key to this is MIRI 7.7μm imaging which breaks the degeneracy between old stellar populations and dust attenuation at 33.
