The WISSH QSOs project IX. Cold gas content and environment of luminous QSOs at z~2.4-4.7

M. Bischetti, C. Feruglio, E. Piconcelli +23

Sources at the brightest end of QSO luminosity function during the peak epoch of star formation and black hole accretion (z~2-4, i.e. Cosmic noon) are privileged sites to study the…

Multiple AGN activity during the BCG assembly of XDCPJ0044.0-2033 at z~1.6

A. Travascio, A. Bongiorno, P. Tozzi +13

Undisturbed galaxy clusters are characterized by a massive and large elliptical galaxy at their center, i.e. the Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG). How these central galaxies form is…

Universal bolometric corrections for AGN over 7 luminosity decades

F. Duras, A. Bongiorno, F. Ricci +12

The AGN bolometric correction is a key element to understand BH demographics and compute accurate BH accretion histories from AGN luminosities. However, current estimates still dif…

X-CIGALE: fitting AGN/galaxy SEDs from X-ray to infrared

Guang Yang, M. Boquien, V. Buat +6

CIGALE is a powerful multiwavelength spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting code for extragalactic studies. However, the current version of CIGALE is not able to fit X-ray data…

Probing black hole accretion tracks, scaling relations and radiative efficiencies from stacked X-ray active galactic nuclei

Francesco Shankar, David H. Weinberg, Christopher Marsden +25

The masses of supermassive black holes at the centres of local galaxies appear to be tightly correlated with the mass and velocity dispersions of their galactic hosts. However, the…

The hyperluminous Compton-thick quasar nucleus of the hot DOG W1835+4355 observed by NuSTAR

L. Zappacosta, E. Piconcelli, F. Duras +11

We present a 155ks NuSTAR observation of the hot dust-obscured galaxy (hot DOG) W1835+4355. We extracted spectra from the two NuSTAR detectors and analyzed them jointly wi…

Molecular outflow and feedback in the obscured Quasar XID2028 revealed by ALMA

M. Brusa, G. Cresci, E. Daddi +29

We imaged with ALMA and ARGOS/LUCI the molecular gas and the dust and stellar continuum in XID2028, an obscured QSO at z=1.593, where the presence of a massive outflow in the ioniz…

The WISSH quasars Project: II. Giant star nurseries in hyper-luminous quasars

F. Duras, A. Bongiorno, E. Piconcelli +12

Studying the coupling between the energy output produced by the central quasar and the host galaxy is fundamental to fully understand galaxy evolution. Quasar feedback is indeed su…

AGN wind scaling relations and the co-evolution of black holes and galaxies

F. Fiore, C. Feruglio, F. Shankar +14

Feedback from accreting SMBHs is often identified as the main mechanism responsible for regulating star-formation in AGN host galaxies. However, the relationships between AGN activ…

The WISSH Quasars Project I. Powerful ionised outflows in hyper-luminous quasars

M. Bischetti, E. Piconcelli, G. Vietri +19

Models and observations suggest that both power and effects of AGN feedback should be maximised in hyper-luminous (L_Bol>10^47 erg/s) quasars, i.e. objects at the brightest end of…
