Relative Role of Stars and Quasars in Cosmic Reionization
Marta Volonteri, Nick Gnedin
We revisit the classical view that quasar contribution to the reionization of hydrogen is unimportant. When secondary ionization are taken into account, in many plausible scenarios…
The Chandra COSMOS Survey, I: Overview and Point Source Catalog
Martin Elvis, Francesca Civano, Cristian Vignali +40
The Chandra COSMOS Survey (C-COSMOS) is a large, 1.8 Ms, Chandra} program that has imaged the central 0.5 sq.deg of the COSMOS field (centered at 10h, +02deg) with an effective exp…
The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey: Ly-alpha Blobs are powered by heating, not cooling
J. E. Geach, D. M. Alexander, B. D. Lehmer +11
We present the results of a 400ks Chandra survey of 29 extended Ly-alpha emitting nebulae (Ly-alpha Blobs, LABs) in the z=3.09 proto-cluster in the SSA22 field. We detect luminous…
The Growth of Supermassive Black Holes Across Cosmic Time
K. Nandra, J. A. Aird, D. M. Alexander +54
One of the main themes in extragalactic astronomy for the next decade will be the evolution of galaxies over cosmic time. Many future observatories, including JWST, ALMA, GMT, TMT…
Massive Black Holes Across Cosmic Time
P. Madau, T. Abel, P. Bender +12
This White Paper to the National Academy of Sciences Astro2010 Decadal Review Committee outlines some of the outstanding questions regarding the assembly history of Massive Black H…
Spin and Relativistic Phenomena Around Black Holes
L. Brenneman, J. M. Miller, K. Nandra +13
Since the seminal work of Penrose (1969) and Blandford & Znajek (1977), it has been realized that black hole spin may be an important energy source in astrophysics. The radio-loud/…
