The host galaxies of radio-loud quasars at z>5 with ALMA
C. Mazzucchelli, R. Decarli, S. Belladitta +13
The interaction between radio-jets and quasar host galaxies plays a paramount role in quasar/galaxy co-evolution. However, very little has been known so far about this interaction…
A candidate quadruple AGN system at
Eileen Herwig, Fabrizio Arrigoni Battaia, Eduardo Bañados +1
Multiple galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at kiloparsec separation from each other are exceedingly rare, and in fact, only one quadruple AGN is known so far. These ex…
A quasar-galaxy merger at : rapid host growth via accretion of two massive satellite galaxies
Roberto Decarli, Federica Loiacono, Emanuele Paolo Farina +38
We present JWST/NIRSpec Integral Field Spectroscopy in the rest-frame optical bands of the system PJ308-21, a quasar at caught as its host galaxy interacts with companio…
Feeding Hidden Monsters: a Super-Eddington accreting Black Hole ~1.5 Gyr after the Big Bang
Hyewon Suh, Julia Scharwächter, Emanuele Paolo Farina +13
Recent James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations have revealed a surprisingly abundant population of faint, dusty active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z~4-7. Together with the pre…
Evidence of Pop~III stars' chemical signature in neutral gas at z~6. A study based on the E-XQR-30 spectroscopic sample
Alessio Sodini, Valentina D'Odorico, Stefania Salvadori +16
This study explores the metal enrichment signatures attributed to the first generation of stars (PopIII) in the Universe, focusing on the E-XQR-30 sample. We aim to identify traces…
Quasar Island -- Three new quasars, including a lensed candidate, identified with contrastive learning
Xander Byrne, Romain A. Meyer, Emanuele Paolo Farina +5
Of the hundreds of quasars discovered to date, only one is known to be gravitationally lensed, despite the high lensing optical depth expected at . High-reds…
A quasar-galaxy merger at : black hole mass and quasar properties from the NIRSpec spectrum
Federica Loiacono, Roberto Decarli, Marco Mignoli +31
We present JWST/NIRSpec integral field data of the quasar PJ308-21 at . As shown by previous ALMA and HST imaging, the quasar has two companion sources, interacting with…
A SPectroscopic survey of biased halos In the Reionization Era (ASPIRE): Impact of Galaxies on the CGM Metal Enrichment at z > 6 Using the JWST and VLT
Siwei Zou, Zheng Cai, Feige Wang +27
We characterize the multiphase circumgalactic medium and galaxy properties at z = 6.0-6.5 in four quasar fields from the James Webb Space Telescope A SPectroscopic survey of biased…
Is GN-z11 powered by a super-Eddington massive black hole?
Maulik Bhatt, Simona Gallerani, Andrea Ferrara +6
Observations of quasars powered by supermassive black holes (SMBHs; ) challenge our current understanding of early black hole (BH) f…
