A Spectral Framework for Testing the Quasi-Star Hypothesis in Little Red Dots I: Weighing LRDs by Their Super-Eddington Luminosity Ratios---No Signs of Overmassive Black Holes
We present a spectral test of the quasi-star hypothesis for Little Red Dots (LRDs) whereby a black hole grows inside a stellar-like envelope. We use \texttt{Prospector} to fit host galaxies and \texttt{TLUSTY} photospheres to four LRDs that show strong molecular or atomic absorption. We approximate
