NIRSpec/PRISM zoom-in on the [O III] doublet and nondetection of Hβ. The red line shows a model fitting only narrow [O III], but this fit is dominated by the PRISM line-spread function (blue). The expected offset broad component for [O III] based on the G395M Hα profile is shown as a shaded green region, which can be added to the model but with no discriminatory power given the resolution.
