The WISSH quasars project VII. The impact of extreme radiative field in the accretion disk and X-ray corona interplay

L. Zappacosta, E. Piconcelli, M. Giustini +14

Hyperluminous quasars ( erg s) are ideal laboratories to study the interaction and impact of extreme radiative field and the most powerful winds…

The WISSH quasars project VII. Outflows and metals in the circumgalactic medium around the hyper-luminous z~3.6 quasar J1538+08

A. Travascio, L. Zappacosta, S. Cantalupo +11

During the last years, Ly nebulae have been routinely detected around high-z, radio-quiet quasars (RQQs) thanks to the advent of sensitive integral field spectrographs. Constrai…

The WISSH quasars project VI. Fraction and properties of BAL quasars in the hyper-luminosity regime

G. Bruni, E. Piconcelli, T. Misawa +9

The WISSH quasars project aims at studying the nuclear and host galaxy properties of the most luminous quasars ( erg/s, ). Nuclear winds are manifested…

The WISSH quasars project V. ALMA reveals the assembly of a giant galaxy around a z=4.4 hyper-luminous QSO

M. Bischetti, E. Piconcelli, C. Feruglio +11

We present an ALMA high-resolution observation of the 840 um continuum and [CII] line emission in the WISE-SDSS selected hyper-luminous (WISSH) QSO J1015+0020 at z~4.4. Our analysi…

The WISSH Quasars Project IV. BLR versus kpc-scale winds

G. Vietri, E. Piconcelli, M. Bischetti +21

We have undertaken a multi-band observing program aimed at obtaining a complete census of winds in a sample of WISE/SDSS selected hyper-luminous (WISSH) QSOs at z~2-4. We have anal…

The WISSH Quasars Project III. X-ray properties of hyper-luminous quasars

S. Martocchia, E. Piconcelli, L. Zappacosta +14

We perform a survey of the X-ray properties of 41 objects from the WISE/SDSS selected Hyper-luminous (WISSH) quasars sample, composed by 86 broad-line quasars (QSOs) with bolometri…
