Resolving the physics of Quasar Ly Nebulae (RePhyNe): II. The dense and clumpy CGM of Quasars at 3.5
Titouan Lazeyras, Sebastiano Cantalupo, Andrea Travascio +10
The small scale density distribution of the cold circumgalactic medium (CGM) plays a central role in galaxy evolution, yet it is still poorly understood. We provide new constraints…
SHELLQs. Black Hole Mass and Eddington Ratio Distributions of Intermediate-Luminosity Quasars at 6<z<7
Masafusa Onoue, John D. Silverman, Yoshiki Matsuoka +31
We present near-infrared spectroscopy of 21 quasars at 6.07 < z < 6.90 obtained with JWST/NIRSpec and Subaru/MOIRCS. These targets have absolute ultraviolet magnitudes of -25 < M_1…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 2: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on the Stellar Morphology of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Galaxy mergers, with their high sensitivity to initial conditions, provide a valuable setting for comparative studies of galaxy simulation codes. Following our first paper focusing…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 1: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on Star Formation of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Given their highly nonlinear dynamics and sensitivity to initial conditions, galaxy mergers are a compelling area to conduct a simulation code comparison. We perform a comparative…
Pebbles to Gems: Intermediate-mass black holes in the first star clusters
Benedetta Mestichelli, Manuel Arca Sedda, Marta Volonteri +9
The rapid assembly of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) observed at requires efficient seeding mechanisms in the early Universe. Population III (Pop. III) star clusters…
You can't see me: Super-Eddington growth hindering X-ray detection in high-z broad-line active galactic nuclei
Alessandro Trinca, Alessandro Lupi, Francesco Haardt +1
We revisit black hole mass estimates for high-redshift broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs) discovered with JWST by jointly analysing their broad emission lines and their syste…
ASPIRE: The Environments and Dark Matter Halos of Luminous Quasars in the Epoch of Reionization
Feige Wang, Jaclyn B. Champagne, Jiamu Huang +42
We present a systematic study of the environments of 25 luminous quasars at from the ASPIRE program. Using JWST/NIRCam WFSS data, we identified 487 galaxies at $5.3 \less…
Shedding the envelope: JWST reveals a kiloparsec-scale [OIII]-weak Balmer shell around a z=7.64 quasar
Julien Wolf, Eduardo Bañados, Xiaohui Fan +25
Luminous quasars at the redshift frontier z>7 serve as stringent probes of super-massive black hole formation and they are thought to undergo much of their growth obscured by dense…
Hunting the first Cosmic Giants: formation and detectability of Direct Collapse Black Holes around high-redshift quasars
Alessandro Trinca, Alessandro Lupi, Zoltán Haiman +4
The rapid emergence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe poses a challenge to current models of black hole growth. One promising formation pathway is the direc…
