Strong environmental AGN enhancement among DSFGs in z > 2 protoclusters

Monica Natalia Isla Llave, Fabio Vito, Alberto Traina +17

Galaxy protoclusters (PCs) at z > 2 are dense regions in which cold gas availability and elevated galaxy interaction rates trigger intense, often dust-obscured, star formation. The…

Magnetic fields at the dawn of structure formation I. The CARLA J1510+5958 proto-cluster

A. Pagliotta, A. Bonafede, C. Stuardi +4

Magnetic fields are a fundamental ingredient of the Universe, influencing the formation and evolution of cosmic structures. While magnetic fields in local galaxy clusters have been…

X-ray view of a massive node of the Cosmic Web at z=3 II. Discovery of extended X-ray emission around a hyperluminous QSO

Andrea Travascio, Sebastiano Cantalupo, Gabriele Pezzulli +17

While the warm, ionized gas in the CGM at z>3 is now routinely observed around bright QSOs in Lya emission, little is known about the CGM hot phase due to its expected faintness in…

The properties of X-ray selected AGN in protoclusters pinpointed by Enormous Lya Nebulae

A. Traina, F. Vito, F. Arrigoni-Battaia +11

Protoclusters of galaxies are overdense regions of the Universe characterized by large gas reservoirs. Such environments make them perfect laboratories to investigate galaxy-AGN co…

X-ray view of a massive node of the Cosmic Web at z~3 I. An exceptional overdensity of rapidly accreting SMBHs

A. Travascio, S. Cantalupo, P. Tozzi +16

Exploring SMBH population in protoclusters offers valuable insights into how environment affects SMBH growth. However, research on AGN within these areas is still limited by the sm…
