H_2 Suppression with Shocking Inflows: Testing a Pathway for Supermassive Black Hole Formation
Ricardo Fernandez, Greg L. Bryan, Zoltan Haiman +1
The presence of quasars at redshifts z > 6 indicates the existence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) as massive as a few times 10^9 Msun, challenging models for SMBH formation. O…
The formation of massive black holes in z~30 dark matter haloes with large baryonic streaming velocities
Takamitsu L. Tanaka, Miao Li
The origins of the ~10^9 Msun quasar supermassive black holes (BHs) at redshifts z > 6 remain a theoretical puzzle. One possibility is that they grew from ~10^5 Msun BHs formed in…
The effect of baryonic streaming motions on the formation of the first supermassive black holes
Takamitsu L. Tanaka, Miao Li, Zoltán Haiman
Observations of quasars at redshifts z > 6 reveal that 10^9 Msol supermassive black holes (SMBHs) had already formed when the Universe was < 0.9 Gyr old. One hypothesis for the ori…
Observational evidence for AGNs feedback at parsec scale
Feng Yuan, Miao Li
In a hot accretion flow, the radiation from the innermost region of the flow propagates outward and heats the electrons at large radii via Compton scattering. It has been shown in…
