The outstanding mass growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the Reionisation Epoch and how it is related to the concurrent growth of their host galaxies, poses challenges to theoretical models aimed at explaining how these systems formed in short timescales (<1 Gyr). To trace the average evolutionary paths of quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) and their host galaxies in the BH mass-host mass ($M_{\rm dyn}$) plane, we compare the star formation rate (SFR), derived from the accurate estimate of the dust temperature and the dust mass ($T_{\rm dust}, M_{\rm dust}$), with the BH accretion rate. To this aim, we analysed a deep, $900$ pc resolution ALMA observation of the sub-mm continuum, [CII] and H$_2$O of the $z\sim 6$ QSO J2310+1855, enabling a detailed study of dust properties and cold gas kinematics. We performed an accurate SED analysis obtaining a dust temperature of $T_{\rm dust} = 71$ K and a dust mass of $M_{\rm dust}= 4.4 \times 10^8\ \rm M_{\odot}$. The implied AGN-corrected SFR is $1240 \ \rm M_{\odot}yr^{-1}$, a factor of 2 smaller than previously reported for this QSO. We derived the best estimate of the dynamical mass $M_{\rm dyn} = 5.2\times 10^{10}\ \rm M_{\odot}$ within $r = 1.7$ kpc, based on a dynamical model of the system. We found that ${\rm SFR}/M_{\rm dyn}>\dot M_{\rm BH}/M_{\rm BH}$, suggesting that AGN feedback might be efficiently acting to slow down the SMBH accretion, while the stellar mass assembly is still vigorously taking place in the host galaxy. In addition, we were also able to detect high-velocity emission on the red and blue sides of the [CII] emission line, that traces a gaseous outflow, and for the first time, we mapped a spatially-resolved water vapour disk through the H$_2$O v=0 $3_{(2,2)}-3_{(1,3)}$ emission line detected at $ν_{\rm obs} = 274.074$ GHz, whose kinematic properties and size are broadly consistent with those of the [CII] disk.
SMM J04135+10277: A distant QSO-starburst system caught by ALMA
从恒星形成、黑洞吸积到星系合并,星系的气体含量是其成长的关键因素。因此,通过观测CO发射线等示踪物来表征其性质对于了解星系演化的更大图景至关重要。利用阿塔卡玛大型毫米/亚毫米波阵列(ALMA)观测了类星体形成伴星系统SMM J 04135 +10277(z=2.84)的尘埃连续谱、CO(5-4)和CO(8-7)谱线发射。早期对这个系统的低$J$ CO研究发现了一个与伴星星系相关的巨大分子气体库,而类星体似乎缺乏气体。我们的CO观测显示,类星体的宿主星系也富含气体,估计分子气体质量为$\sim(0.7-2.3)\times10^{10}$ M $_{\odot}$。的CO线轮廓的同伴星系是广泛的($\sim1000$公里的$^{-1}$),并显示出一个紧凑的,大规模的系统旋转的迹象。与以前的远红外观测相反,我们解决了连续发射和检测两个源,与同伴星系占主导地位的尘埃连续体和类星体有$\sim25\%$贡献的总尘埃排放。用\textsc{MR-MOOSE}和经验模板拟合源的红外光谱能量分布,得到类星体和伴星的红外光度分别在$L_{\rm IR, QSO}\sim(2.1-9.6)\times10^{12}$ L $_{\odot}$和$L_{\rm IR, Comp.}\sim(2.4-24)\times10^{12}$ L $_{\odot}$的范围内,恒星形成速率分别为$\sim21…

First millimeter detection of the disk around a young, isolated, planetary-mass object
OTS44是已知的仅有的四颗拥有圆盘的自由浮动行星之一。我们之前已经证明,它是已知的最冷和质量最小的自由浮动行星($\sim$ 12 M $_{\rm Jup}$),有一个活跃的吸积盘。我们已经获得了波段6(233 GHz)ALMA连续数据,这个非常年轻的磁盘轴承对象。数据显示了对源的明确的未解决的检测。我们通过经验相关性获得了年轻的,高质量的,中央(亚恒星)物体的盘质量估计。所获得的数值范围为0.07至0.63 M $_{\oplus}$(尘埃质量)。我们比较了这个独特的磁盘与那些最近报道的高质量(褐矮星)年轻的对象,以推断其形成机制的限制。虽然对尘埃温度的极端假设产生的盘质量值可能会稍微偏离大质量棕矮星的一般趋势,但一系列合理的值提供了与$M_{\rm dust}$和$M_{*}$之间的独特比例关系相兼容的盘质量,通过亚恒星域下降到行星质量。
