本研究基于JWST NIRSpec IFU首次观测了两个z>6类星体的Hβ、[OIII]和Hα发射线,精确测量了黑洞质量与爱丁顿比率,发现其高于本地黑洞-宿主质量关系,并探测到远超恒星形成率的电离外流。

摘要:

JWST NIRSpec的积分场光谱学(IFS)将显著提升我们对早期类星体的理解,它提供了空间分辨的红外光谱能力,覆盖了此前无法观测的关键静止系光学发射线。在此,我们展示了作为Galaxy Assembly with NIRSpec IFS(GA-NIFS)GTO项目一部分观测到的最初两个z>6类星体的结果,即z=6.82的DELS J0411-0907和z=6.86的VDES J0020-3653。通过首次观测这些高红移类星体的H$β$、[OIII]和H$α$发射线,我们测量了准确的黑洞质量,分别为$M_{\rm{BH}}=1.85e9$和$2.9e9$M$_\odot$,对应DELS J0411-0907和VDES J0020-3653的爱丁顿比率$λ_{\rm{Edd}}=0.8$和0.4。这为基于不确定性更大的MgII线的现有估计提供了关键比较。我们使用类星体宽线模型进行类星体-宿主分解,以测量潜在的宿主星系。我们还发现了每个宿主星系周围的多个发射线区域,它们很可能是正在与这些宿主并合的伴星系。我们测量了宿主和伴星系的恒星形成率、激发机制和动力学质量,首次使用这些估计量测量了高红移下的$M_{\rm{BH}}/M_{\rm{dyn}}$比率。DELS J0411-0907和VDES J0020-3653均位于本地黑洞-宿主质量关系之上,且与ALMA对$z\gtrsim6$类星体宿主星系的现有观测一致。我们在两个类星体的[OIII]和H$β$中探测到电离外流,DELS J0411-0907和VDES J0020-3653的质量外流率分别为58和525 M$_{\odot}$/yr,远大于它们宿主<33和<54 M$_\odot$/yr的恒星形成率。这项工作突显了JWST NIRSpec IFU在观测早期宇宙类星体方面的卓越能力。

英文摘要:

Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) with JWST NIRSpec will significantly improve our understanding of the first quasars, by providing spatially resolved, infrared spectroscopic capabilities which cover key rest-frame optical emission lines that have been previously unobservable. Here we present our results from the first two z>6 quasars observed as a part of the Galaxy Assembly with NIRSpec IFS (GA-NIFS) GTO program, DELS J0411-0907 at z=6.82 and VDES J0020-3653 at z=6.86. By observing the H$β$, [OIII], and H$α$ emission lines in these high-z quasars for the first time, we measure accurate black hole masses, $M_{\rm{BH}}=1.85e9$ and $2.9e9$M$_\odot$, corresponding to Eddington ratios of $λ_{\rm{Edd}}=0.8$ and 0.4 for DELS J0411-0907 and VDES J0020-3653 respectively. These provide a key comparison for existing estimates from the more uncertain MgII line. We perform quasar-host decomposition using models of the quasars' broad lines to measure the underlying host galaxies. We also discover multiple emission line regions surrounding each of the host galaxies, which are likely companion galaxies undergoing mergers with these hosts. We measure the star formation rates, excitation mechanisms, and dynamical masses of the hosts and companions, measuring the $M_{\rm{BH}}/M_{\rm{dyn}}$ ratios at high-z using these estimators for the first time. DELS J0411-0907 and VDES J0020-3653 both lie above the local black hole--host mass relation, and are consistent with the existing observations of $z\gtrsim6$ quasar host galaxies with ALMA. We detect ionized outflows in [OIII] and H$β$ from both quasars, with mass outflow rates of 58 and 525 M$_{\odot}$/yr for DELS J0411-0907 and VDES J0020-3653, much larger than their host star formation rates of <33 and <54 M$_\odot$/yr. This work highlights the exceptional capabilities of the JWST NIRSpec IFU for observing quasars in the early Universe.
