Overmassive black holes in dwarf galaxies out to z0.9 in the VIPERS survey
M. Mezcua, M. Siudek, H. Suh +3
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are thought to originate from early Universe seed black holes of mass -10 M and grown through cosmic time. S…
Seeking the growth of the first black hole seeds with JWST
Alessandro Trinca, Raffaella Schneider, Roberto Maiolino +3
In this paper we provide predictions for the BH population that would be observable with planned JWST surveys at . We base our study on the recently developed Cosmi…
The role of Pop III stars and early black holes in the 21cm signal from Cosmic Dawn
Emanuele M. Ventura, Alessandro Trinca, Raffaella Schneider +3
Modeling the 21cm global signal from the Cosmic Dawn is challenging due to the many poorly constrained physical processes that come into play. We address this problem using the sem…
Detection of companion galaxies around hot dust-obscured hyper-luminous galaxy W0410-0913
M. Ginolfi, E. Piconcelli, L. Zappacosta +18
The phase transition between galaxies and quasars is often identified with the rare population of hyper-luminous, hot dust-obscured galaxies. Galaxy formation models predict these…
The Dawn of Black Holes
Elisabeta Lusso, Rosa Valiante, Fabio Vito
In the last decades, luminous accreting super-massive black holes have been discovered within the first Gyr after the Big Bang, but their origin is still an unsolved mystery. We di…
A dusty compact object bridging galaxies and quasars at cosmic dawn
S. Fujimoto, G. B. Brammer, D. Watson +18
Understanding how super-massive black holes form and grow in the early Universe has become a major challenge since the discovery of luminous quasars only 700 million years after th…
