Inspiraling streams of enriched gas observed around a massive galaxy 11 billion years ago
Shiwu Zhang, Zheng Cai, Dandan Xu +19
Stars form in galaxies, from gas that has been accreted from the intergalactic medium. Simulations have shown that recycling of gas-the reaccretion of gas that was previously eject…

We present the first results from the JWST ASPIRE program (A SPectroscopic survey of biased halos In the Reionization Era). This program represents an imaging and spectroscopic sur…
A SPectroscopic survey of biased halos In the Reionization Era (ASPIRE): A First Look at the Rest-frame Optical Spectra of Quasars Using JWST
Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang, Xiaohui Fan +53
Studies of rest-frame optical emission in quasars at have historically been limited by the wavelengths accessible by ground-based telescopes. The James Webb Space Telescope (…
(SHERRY) JCMT-SCUBA2 High Redshift Bright Quasar Survey -- II: the environment of z~6 quasars in sub-millimeter band
Qiong Li, Ran Wang, Xiaohui Fan +14
The formation of the first supermassive black holes is expected to have occurred in some most pronounced matter and galaxy overdensities in the early universe. We have conducted a…
TRINITY II: The Luminosity-dependent Bias of the Supermassive Black Hole Mass--Galaxy Mass Relation for Bright Quasars at
Haowen Zhang, Peter Behroozi, Marta Volonteri +5
Using recent empirical constraints on the dark matter halo--galaxy--supermassive black hole (SMBH) connection from , we infer how undermassive, typical, and overmassive SMBH…
A comprehensive view of the interstellar medium in a quasar host galaxy at z~6.4
Roberto Decarli, Antonio Pensabene, Tanio Diaz-Santos +11
Characterizing the physical conditions (density, temperature, ionization state, metallicity, etc) of the interstellar medium is critical to our understanding of the formation and e…
MAMMOTH-Subaru V. Effects of Cosmic Variance on Ly Luminosity Functions at
Ke Ma, Haibin Zhang, Zheng Cai +8
Cosmic variance introduces significant uncertainties into galaxy number density properties when surveying the high-z Universe with a small volume, such uncertainties produce the fi…
