2 What is the Problem? SDSS Quasars at z > 6 highest redshift: z = (770 Myr) (Momjian et al. 2013) most massive: z = 6.30 (900 Myr), M = 1.3x10 12 (Wu et al. 2015) First Stars form at z = 20 Latest Planck results push the z lower! How do we grow the Quasars to supermassive scales? time scale is t(z 6 ) - t(z first_star ) ~ 700 Myr* *Take this time with a pinch of salt

3 Solving the problem z t 200 Myr 550 Myr 1 Gyr seed' a BH grow the seed make it a SMBH - For a given BH growth scenario: Bondi-Hoyle, Eddington etc. - sensitive to two parameters M seed t grow

4 The Possible Paths pristine gas in minihalo withstand SF Pop III/II cluster Pop III star: BH: 100 M-sun halo grows: T vir = 10 4 K critical LW radiation NO fragmentation: SMS/QS Merge before 100 M sun go SN BH: 1000 M sun super-edd. BH growth BH: M sun sub-edd. BH growth Quasar BH: 10 9 M sun

5 PopIII stellar BH seeds Heger et al. 2003

6 PopIII stellar BH seeds Volonteri et al. Bromm et al. Yoshida et al. Assuming z f edd = 1 rad. eff = 0.1 M seed = 100 M sun M BH [M sun ] t grow : t 1 {z(20-6)} = 700 Myr t 2 {z(9-6)} = 200 Myr z t age [Myr] 6 t 200 Myr 1 Gyr seed' a BH make it a SMBH

7 Hirano et al PopIII stellar BH seeds: IMF PopIII : IMF Highest mass: 1000 M sun Mstar > 100 M sun desirable seed mass! Doesn t have to be too' common

8 PopIII stellar BH seeds: where? DM Mass ? BH + II* SMBH + II* BH + II* III* PopIII : first sources of light! Minihaloes: M = M sun (DM) Effect on neighbouring haloes: -Moderate LW feedback can kill SF -X-rays feedback -SN 'blow out'

9 PopIII stellar BH seeds: problems highly optimistic scenario! ignores feedback Assuming f edd = 1 rad. eff = 0.1 where is the gas? constant availability of gas form in mini-haloes! merger scenario unclear merger b/w 2 mini-haloes - time-scale - BH present in both M seed = 100 M sun t grow : t 1 {z(20-6)} = 700 Myr t 2 {z(9-6)} = 200 Myr need to be super-edd! all the time!

10 Direct Collapse BH seeds Eisenstein & Loeb Oh & Haiman Bromm & Loeb Koushiappas et al. Bullock & Dekel Lodato & Natarajan z Assuming f edd < 1 rad. eff = 0.1 M seed = M sun M BH [M sun ] t grow : t 1 {z(20-6)} = 700 Myr t 2 {z(9-6)} = 200 Myr t age [Myr] z t 200 Myr 550 Myr 1 Gyr seed' a BH make it a SMBH

11 DCBH seeds: how LW photons: ev Enough LW Radiation H2 + {LW} H2 Delay Pop III Star formation H2 H + H Tvir < 10,000 K

12 DCBH seeds: how LW photons: ev Critical (high) LW Radiation H H H2 Stop Pop III Star formation H + H H Tvir > 10,000 K Pop III n = 10 5 cm 3 T = 200 K 8000 DCBH n = 10 5 cm 3 T = 8000 K M BE ~ 100 M sun M BE ~ 10 5 M sun

13 DCBH seeds: problems Assuming f edd < 1 rad. eff = 0.1 M seed = M sun What is the critical LW flux? HOW does the gas collapse proceed? Feedback from the DCBH once it forms t grow : t 1 {z(20-6)} = 700 Myr t 2 {z(9-6)} = 200 Myr Subsequent merger: with the LW producing galaxy z t 200 Myr 550 Myr 1 Gyr seed' a BH make it a SMBH

19 DCBH seeds: The Hunt (SAM) Reionisation feedback: 13.6 ev : photoionisation / heating of gas in haloes gas needs a larger potential well to re-collapse Vc = 20 km/s (Dijkstra 08) LW Escape Fractions: more photons = more feedback (Ahn et al. 09, Kitayama 04) Stars: Pop II stars (Starburst 99) sfe: 1 % Pop III stars (Schaerer et al.)

31 DCBH seeds: Revised Theory? L hv - Rates depend on the shape of incident spectrum of external galaxy - In literature the J crit values have been derived by assuming Pop III source: black body at 10 5 K 1000 Pop II source : black body at 10 4 K (Omukai et al. 01, Shang et al. 10, Wolcott-Green et al. 12, Sugimura et al. 14, Dijkstra et al. 14, Agarwal et al. '15)

32 DCBH seeds: Revised Theory? Rates depend on the shape of the incident spectrum from the external galaxy: relative ratios of 1eV to 12.4 ev photons Agarwal et al. 2014b

33 DCBH seeds: THE J crit Agarwal et al Parameter space reaction rates: kh -, kh2 DC Input the rates directly into the Enzo framework with S.Glover 15 chem. PopIII Find the rate parameter space where you find DC Compare it to rate parameter space from realistic SEDs: Starburst 99

34 DCBH seeds: THE J crit from Starburst99 Agarwal et al ST99: galaxy is placed 5 kpc from the atomic cooling halo de: photo-detachment of H - di: photo-dissociation of H 2

35 DCBH seeds: THE J crit ST99: ISF, Z = IMF: Salpeter [1-100] No unique" value of J crit : depends on the age, SFH of the galaxy Agarwal et al. 2015

39 DCBH: Take Away Message DCBH works maybe too well still << frequent as Pop III seeds Local LW flux essential for z>6 galaxy formation models DCBH form in satellites of LW producing galaxies DCBH prefer clustered environments DCBH can merge with the galaxies later on: OBG Need to account for realistic SEDs : BB not enough QUESTIONS QUESTI All DCBH are not 'future' SMBH
