VI: Extreme rest-optical equivalent widths detected in NIRISS Wide Field Slitless Spectroscopy %U http://arxiv.org/abs/2207.13459 %X Wide Field Slitless Spectroscopy (WFSS) provides a powerful tool for detecting strong line emission in star forming galaxies (SFGs) without the need for target pre-selection. As part of the GLASS-JWST-ERS program, we leverage the near-infrared wavelength capabilities of NIRISS ($1-2.2\mu$m) to observe rest-optical emission lines out to $z3.4$, to a depth and with a spatial resolution higher than ever before (H$\alpha$ to z<2.4; OIII+H$\beta$ to z<3.4). In this letter we constrain the rest-frame OIII$łambda5007$ equivalent width (EW) distribution for a sample of 76 $1<z<3.4$ SFGs in the Abell 2744 Hubble Frontier Field and determine an abundance fraction of extreme emission line galaxies with EW$>750$A in our sample to be $12\%$. We determine a strong correlation between the measured H$\beta$ and OIII$łambda5007$ EWs, supporting that the high OIII$łambda5007$ EW objects require massive stars in young stellar populations to generate the high energy photons needed to doubly ionise oxygen. We extracted spectra for objects up to 2 mag fainter in the near-infrared than previous WFSS studies with the Hubble Space Telescope. Thus, this work clearly highlights the potential of JWST/NIRISS to provide high quality WFSS datasets in crowded cluster environments.
