MF3D is publicly available on github (https://github.com/pavesiriccardo/MF3D).We present the [O III]88μm spectralscan resultsfrom the ALMA Large Program REBELS (Reionization Era Bright Emission Line Survey). The generally high luminosity of [O III]88μm and ALMA’s Band 7 efficiency motivated its use for line scans of REBELS targets at z > 8. Spectral scans of four sources covered 326.4–373.0 GHz (z = 8.10–9.39), reaching [O III]88μm luminosities of ∼ 7.6 × 108 L (5σ) for a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 400 km s−1. No credible lines are detected for the four targets. For REBELS-04, the non-detection is unexpected given the ≥ 92 per cent coverage of the redshift likelihood distribution and its estimated star formation rate of 40 M yr−1. Possible explanations for the faint [O III]88μm emission (assuming an FWHM of 100 km s−1) include high interstellar medium densities (> ncrit ≈ 510 cm−3) and low ionization parameters (log10 Uion −2.5). For REBELS-37, a subsequent detection of [C II]158μm (z = 7.643) confirmed it lay outside our scan range. For REBELS-11 and REBELS-13, it remains unclear if the non-detection is due to the depth of the line scan or redshift coverage. REBELS-04 and REBELS-37 show significant (≥ 3.8σ) dust continuum emission in Band 7. If the photometric redshift of REBELS-04 is accurate, i.e. zphot = 8.57+0.10 −0.09 or zphot = 8.43+0.10 −0.10 accounting for additional neutral hydrogen in the circumgalactic medium, REBELS-04 would constitute the most distant dust-detected galaxy identified with ALMA to date. Additional Band 6 dust observations of REBELS-37 constrain the shape of the far-IR spectral energy distribution, ruling out cold dust temperatures ( 28 K) at 3σ. Further insight into these galaxies will require spectroscopic redshifts and deeper multiband dust observations.RJB acknowledges support from NWO grants 600.065.140.11.N211 (vrijcompetitie) and TOP grant TOP1.16.057.
