Obscuration beyond the nucleus: infrared quasars can be buried in extreme compact starbursts
Carolina Andonie, David M. Alexander, Claire Greenwell +14
In the standard quasar model, the accretion disk obscuration is due to the canonical dusty torus. Here, we argue that a substantial part of the quasar obscuration can come from the…
The Ionization and Dynamics of the Makani Galactic Wind
David S. N. Rupke, Alison L. Coil, Serena Perrotta +10
The Makani galaxy hosts the poster child of a galactic wind on scales of the circumgalactic medium. It consists of a two-episode wind in which the slow, outer wind originated 400 M…
Host Dark Matter Halos of WISE-selected Obscured & Unobscured Quasars: Evidence for Evolution
Grayson C. Petter, Ryan C. Hickox, David M. Alexander +4
Obscuration in quasars may arise from steep viewing angles along the dusty torus, or instead may represent a distinct phase of supermassive black hole growth. We test these scenari…
