Sustained super-Eddington accretion in high-redshift quasars
Alessandro Lupi, Giada Quadri, Marta Volonteri +2
Observations of quasars provide information on the early evolution of the most massive black holes (MBHs) and galaxies. Current observations, able to trace both gas a…
On the connection between AGN radiative feedback and massive black hole spin
Francesco Bollati, Alessandro Lupi, Massimo Dotti +1
We present a novel implementation for active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback through ultra-fast winds in the code gizmo. Our feedback recipe accounts for the angular dependence of…
Decomposing galaxies with BANG: an automated morpho-kinematical decomposition of the SDSS-DR17 MaNGA survey
Fabio Rigamonti, Massimo Dotti, Stefano Covino +4
From a purely photometric perspective galaxies are generally decomposed into a bulge+disc system, with bulges being dispersion-dominated and discs rotationally-supported. However,…
HYPerluminous quasars at the Epoch of ReionizatION (HYPERION). A new regime for the X-ray nuclear properties of the first quasars
L. Zappacosta, E. Piconcelli, F. Fiore +40
The existence of luminous quasars (QSO) at the Epoch of Reionization (EoR; i.e. z>6) powered by supermassive black holes (SMBH) with masses challenges models…
Gravitational waves from an eccentric population of primordial black holes orbiting Sgr A
Stefano Bondani, Matteo Bonetti, Luca Broggi +3
Primordial black holes (PBH), supposedly formed in the very early Universe, have been proposed as a possible viable dark matter candidate. In this work we characterize the expected…
INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics III. Second data release (DR2): testing the systematics on the stellar velocity dispersion
G. D'Ago, C. Spiniello, L. Coccato +15
This is the second data release (DR2) of the INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics (INSPIRE) project, comprising 21 new systems with observations completed before March 2022.…
