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…

A Changing-Look Seyfert Discovered by eROSITA Reveals a Two-Component Broad-Line Region

Alex Markowitz, Mirko Krumpe, David Homan +12

Extreme sudden changes in the flow of accreting gas onto SMBHs manifest themselves via large-amplitude continuum variability and changes to broad Balmer emission profiles, driving…

A Possible Shutting-Down Event of Mass Accretion in An Active Galactic Nucleus at z~1.8

Tomoki Morokuma, Malte Schramm, Toshihiro Kawaguchi +11

We present the discovery of a large gradual apparent fading event in optical and near-infrared wavelengths in a quasar at z=1.767 by a factor of 20-30 (in optical) over a period of…

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…

The Physical Origin of Extreme Emission Line Galaxies at High redshifts: Strong {\sc [Oiii]} Emission Lines Produced by Obscured AGNs

Chenghao Zhu, Yuichi Harikane, Masami Ouchi +21

We present deep Subaru/FOCAS spectra for two extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs) at with strong {\sc[Oiii]}5007 emission lines, exhibiting equivalent widths (EWs) o…
