AI总结:

ASTRID模拟发现高质量黑洞和高恒星质量的星系符合小红点特征,其红斜率由尘埃遮蔽的AGN主导,但低质量星系因尘埃不足或分辨率限制不满足条件。

摘要:

我们利用大规模宇宙水动力模拟ASTRID,呈现了JWST观测到的‘小红点’(LRD)星系的模拟对应物。我们创建了ASTRID中星系(5≤z≤8)的模拟观测,并发现十七个符合LRD颜色和大小标准的星系。这些LRD是具有高恒星质量(log(M*/M_\odot)≥9.7)和大质量黑洞(log(M_{BH}/M_\odot)≥6.8)的星系。宿主星系密度高,恒星半质量半径(325 pc≤r_{half, *}≤620 pc),F444W波段的尘埃消光高于1.25。它们的恒星形成已近期被抑制。它们宿主相对明亮的AGN,这些AGN被尘埃遮蔽,并显著贡献于余帧光学红斜率,而在余帧紫外波段,宿主星系的恒星更为主导。这些LRD处于由其大质量黑洞的AGN反馈导致的miniquenching演化阶段。ASTRID中的LRD亮度高,F444W视星等为23.5-25.5。ASTRID中质量较低且较暗的星系缺乏产生LRD红斜率所需的尘埃浓度,尽管这可能是由于分辨率有限所致。大多数最高Eddington黑洞不是LRD,因为其宿主星系的尘埃消光不足,这些宿主星系也经历相对较高的恒星形成率。这导致它们的光谱过于平坦,尽管它们的黑洞高度吸积。

英文摘要:

We present simulated counterparts of the ``Little Red Dot'' (LRD) galaxies observed with JWST, using the large cosmological hydrodynamic simulation, ASTRID. We create mock observations of the galaxies ($5 \leq z \leq 8$) in ASTRID, and find seventeen which fit the color and size criteria of LRDs. These LRDs are galaxies with high stellar masses ($\rm log(M_*/M_{\odot}) \geq 9.7$), and massive black holes ($\rm log(M_{BH}/M_{\odot}) \geq 6.8$). The host galaxies are dense, with stellar half mass radii ($\rm 325\,pc \leq r_{{\rm half},*} \leq 620\,pc$), and dust attenuation in the F444W band above 1.25. Their star formation has been recently quenched. They host relatively bright AGN that are dust-obscured and contribute significantly to the rest-frame optical red slope and have relatively low luminosity in the rest-frame ultraviolet, where the host galaxy's stars are more dominant. These LRDs are in an evolutionary phase of miniquenching that is the result of AGN feedback from their massive black holes. The LRDs in ASTRID are bright with F444W magnitudes of $23.5-25.5$. The less massive and fainter galaxies in ASTRID lack the dust concentration necessary to produce the red slope of an LRD, though this could be an effect of limited resolution. Most of the highest Eddington black holes are not LRDs due to insufficient dust attenuation from their host galaxies, which are also experiencing relatively high star formation rates. This results in their spectra being too flat, despite their highly accreting black holes.
