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…

The deepest X-ray view of high-redshift galaxies: constraints on low-rate black-hole accretion

Fabio Vito, Roberto Gilli, Cristian Vignali +16

We exploit the 7 Ms \textit{Chandra} observations in the \chandra\,Deep Field-South (\mbox{CDF-S}), the deepest X-ray survey to date, coupled with CANDELS/GOODS-S data, to measure…

Tracing outflows in the AGN forbidden region with SINFONI

D. Kakkad, V. Mainieri, P. Padovani +8

AGN driven outflows are invoked in numerical simulations to reproduce several observed properties of local galaxies. The z > 1 epoch is of particular interest as it was during this…

A fast ionised wind in a Star Forming-Quasar system at z~1.5 resolved through Adaptive Optics assisted near-infrared data

M. Brusa, M. Perna, G. Cresci +15

Outflows are invoked in co-evolutionary models to link the growth of SMBH and galaxies through feedback phenomena, and from the analysis of both galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei…

AGN host galaxy mass function in COSMOS: is AGN feedback responsible for the mass-quenching of galaxies?

A. Bongiorno, A. Schulze, A. Merloni +11

We investigate the role of supermassive black holes in the global context of galaxy evolution by measuring the host galaxy stellar mass function (HGMF) and the specific accretion r…
