Examples of sources classified in confidence Tier 1A, with photometric redshifts that are consistent with our identification of multiple extreme emission features. Photometry postage stamps show a continuum filter (top) and an extreme emission filter (bottom), with north up and east left. All postage stamps are 4″ in width and height. Panel (A): EELG with Hβ + [O III] in F356W and Hα in F444W. Panel (B): EELG with Hβ + [O III] in F356W and Hα in F444W, with likely [O II] + [Ne III] contribution in F277W. Panel (C): EELG with Hβ + [O III] in F277W and Hα in F356W. This source has two close neighbors that also exhibit bright emission in F277W, potentially indicating a cluster of three emission-line galaxies at the same redshift.
