The VANDELS ESO public spectroscopic survey: final Data Release of 2087 spectra and spectroscopic measurements

B. Garilli, R. McLure, L. Pentericci +94

VANDELS is an ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey designed to build a sample of high signal to noise, medium resolution spectra of galaxies at redshift between 1 and 6.5. Here we prese…

Constraining the geometry of the nuclear wind in PDS 456 using a novel emission model

A. Luminari, E. Piconcelli, F. Tombesi +4

Outflows from active galactic nuclei (AGN) are often invoked to explain the co-evolution of AGN and their host galaxies, and the scaling relations between the central black hole ma…

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…

Detection of faint broad emission lines in type 2 AGN: I. Near infrared observations and spectral fitting

F. Onori, F. La Franca, F. Ricci +8

We present medium resolution near infrared spectroscopic observations of 41 obscured and intermediate class AGN (type 2, 1.9 and 1.8; AGN2) with redshift 0.1, selected…

Ionised outflows in z 2.4 quasar host galaxies

S. Carniani, A. Marconi, R. Maiolino +17

AGN-driven outflows are invoked by galaxy evolutionary models to quench star formation and to explain the origin of the relations observed locally between super massive black holes…

The cosmic growth of the active black hole population at 1<z<2 in zCOSMOS, VVDS and SDSS

A. Schulze, A. Bongiorno, I. Gavignaud +11

We present a census of the active black hole population at 1<z<2, by constructing the bivariate distribution function of black hole mass and Eddington ratio, employing a maximum li…
