1 OABo days The physics, environment and evolu/on of early supermassive black holes R. Gilli Some fundamental ques/ons: At what epoch did the first genera/on of SMBHs form? What is their origin (e.g. light vs heavy seeds)? Where and how early seeds could grow to SMBHs? Do BHs form before their hosts? Who re- ionized the Universe? SDSS J1148, z=6.43

2 Main collabora/ons Large Interna/onal Collabora/ons 7Ms Chandra Deep Field South (PI N. Brandt, PSU) COSMOS- Legacy (PI F. Civano, CfA) Intra- INAF (Massardi, Mignano,...) Intra- OABo Comastri, Mignoli, Calura, Vanzella, Balmaverde, OABo- DIFA Vignali, Brusa, Lanzuisi, Pozzi, OABo group ARC DIFA group CDFS + COSMOS Other collaborators Vito*, Cappellu/*, Iwasawa, Norman, Chiaberge, Rosa/, Sani, +++ *@OABo un/l fall 2015 Focus on projects led by OABo since the past two years

3 z=3.1 z=3.3 z=3.7 AGN XLF within CDFS+COSMOS z=4.1 z=4.5 Vito+14 AGN space density φ(z) ~ (1+z) - 6 ~1 dex decrease from z=3 to z=5 just like brighter SDSS QSOs Next steps: extend to lower L x (Vito+ in prep) if same trend, AGN likely do not reionize the IGM (as opposed to recent claims, e.g. Giallongo+15)

4 within CDFS+COSMOS Obscured AGN frac/on at z>3 The frac/on of obscured QSOs increases with redshio z=3.5 z=0.1 Half of z>3 AGN are obscured by logn H >23 At high- z, higher gas frac/on and merger rate (Menci+08, Lamastra+10). In addi/on, galaxies are more compact! Increasing absorp/on by host ISM? Vito+14

5 The case of XID403 in the CDFS: an SMG at z=4.75 hos/ng a Compton- thick QSO with ARC (and DIFA) Chandra spectrum N H = x 1024 cm - 2 L x ~ 3 x erg/s 6Ms ALMA Cycle 0 detec/on Gilli+14 4Ms filler target, S/N ~ 35 in 3 min marginally resolved at ~0.7 res.! r 50%,dust ~ 0.9 ± 0.3 kpc ALMA constrains size of dust/sf

13 Op/cal spectroscopy with (just completed) SDSSJ1048 field (z=6.2) Intra- OABo (+ DIFA) SDSS J1148 field (z=6.42) ID3605: primary dropout at z=6.456 ID4811: primary dropout at z=5.9 Lyα Δz=0.3 " Δr=18 pmpc? ID2277: secondary dropout at z=5.7 separa/on of ~ 4 pmpc from QSO " if confirmed, same LSS

14 Intra- OABo (+ DIFA) Chandra LP (500ks ACIS- I) on J1030 approved in Cycle 17 Chandra largest program for INAF Scien/fic Goals (sorted by decreasing risk)!""#$%&'$ ()*$ 1) detec/on of faint satellite AGNs " growth of SMBHs in early LSSs 2) high quality spectrum of SDSSJ1030, 550 cts " ionized iron features, Γ, UFOs 3) deep mul/- λ survey: 200 X- ray sources down to erg/cm 2 /s ; MUSYC + LBT + WIRCAM + Spitzer = UBVRIzYJHK,IRAC,MIPS

15 Next cri/cal steps Intra- OABo (+ DIFA) The spectroscopic campaign is indica/ng that bright (z AB <25) i- band dropouts must have weak (if any) Lyα emission " need other strategies to secure their redshios and verify whether they belong to the QSO LSS (i.e. Δz~0.1, or Δr~10 pmpc) Mul/- λ obs for photo- zs or color- color plots necessary but not sufficient. Hence: stellar locus robust LBG candidates - apply for deep op/cal spectroscopy to detect the con/nuum break, e.g hr with VIMOS@VLT - apply for ALMA observa/ons of the [CII]158μm emission line (bright dropouts likely massive, dusty and metal- rich systems).
