Direct Lyman continuum and Lyman-alpha escape observed at redshift 4
E. Vanzella, M. Nonino, G. Cupani +16
We report on the serendipitous discovery of a z=4.0, M1500=-22.20 star-forming galaxy (Ion3) showing copious Lyman continuum (LyC) leakage (~60% escaping), a remarkable multiple pe…
AGN feedback on molecular gas reservoirs in quasars at 2.4
S. Carniani, A. Marconi, R. Maiolino +18
We present new ALMA observations aimed at mapping molecular gas reservoirs through the CO(3-2) transition in three quasars at , LBQS 0109+0213, 2QZ J002830.4-281706, an…
Detection of faint broad emission lines in type 2 AGN: III. On the relation of type 2 AGN
F. Ricci, F. La Franca, A. Marconi +10
Type 2 active galactic nuclei (AGN) represent the majority of the AGN population. However, due to the difficulties in measuring their black hole (BH) masses, it is still unknown wh…
The primordial environment of supermassive black holes (II): deep Y and J band images around the z=6.3 quasar SDSS J1030+0524
B. Balmaverde, R. Gilli, M. Mignoli +9
Many cosmological studies predict that early supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can only form in the most massive dark matter halos embedded within large scale structures marked by g…
Detection of faint broad emission lines in type 2 AGN: II. On the measurement of the BH mass of type 2 AGN and the unified model
F. Onori, F. Ricci, F. La Franca +8
We report the virial measurements of the BH mass of a sample of 17 type 2 AGN, drawn from the Swift/BAT 70-month 14-195 keV hard X-ray catalogue, where a faint BLR component has be…
The Lyman Continuum escape fraction of faint galaxies at z~3.3 in the CANDELS/GOODS-North, EGS, and COSMOS fields with LBC
A. Grazian, E. Giallongo, D. Paris +41
The reionization of the Universe is one of the most important topics of present day astrophysical research. The most plausible candidates for the reionization process are star-form…
