Discovery of four Narrow-line Type-1 Quasars at z = 2.54 -- 6.06 with Subaru 'Onohi'ula PFS-SSP
Ayumi Takahashi, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Yoshiki Toba +21
We report the discovery of four narrow-line type-1 quasars (NLQ1s) from the Subaru 'Onohi'ula Prime Focus Spectrograph Subaru Strategic Program (PFS-SSP). To extend a comprehensive…
Blackbody Quasar and Radio Source (BBQSORS): A Candidate of Transitional Little Red Dots with a Blackbody Spectrum
Yuxing Zhong, Xiaoyang Chen, Kohei Ichikawa +12
We report Subaru/PFS spectroscopic follow-up of a radio-loud quasar at from the UNVEIL radio AGN catalog and with X-ray detections. The PFS spectrum displays a broad MgII…
A z ~ 0.4 Galaxy Reflecting the high-redshift Little Red Dots: An Extended Starburst with an Overmassive Black Hole
Xiaoyang Chen, Kohei Ichikawa, Masayuki Akiyama +10
One of the most remarkable discoveries of JWST is a population of compact, red sources at z > 4, commonly referred to as Little Red Dots (LRDs). Spectroscopic identifications repor…
SHELLQs. Bridging the Gap: JWST Unveils Obscured Quasars in the Most Luminous Galaxies at z > 6
Yoshiki Matsuoka, Masafusa Onoue, Kazushi Iwasawa +17
The unprecedented sensitivity of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has uncovered a surprisingly abundant population of mildly obscured, low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (A…
SHELLQs-JWST perspective on the intrinsic mass relation between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies at z > 6
John Silverman, Junyao Li, Xuheng Ding +36
The relation between the masses of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies encodes information on their mode of growth, especially at the earliest epochs. The Jame…
SHELLQs-JWST Unveils the Host Galaxies of 12 Quasars at z>6
Xuheng Ding, Masafusa Onoue, John D. Silverman +35
The advent of JWST has opened new horizons in the study of quasar host galaxies during the reionization epoch (z>6). Building upon our previous initial measurements of stellar ligh…
