1 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 1 AGN and Star Formation at High Redshift Anton Koekemoer (Space Telescope Science Institute) + CDFS/GOODS-AGN (Alexander, Brandt, Bergeron, Conselice, Chary, Cristiani, Dickinson, Elbaz, Grogin, Mainieri, Schreier, Treister, Urry, Wiklind...) +COSMOS-AGN (Brusa, Carilli, Capak, Civano, Comastri, Daddi, Elvis, Fiore, Hasinger, Ilbert, Impey, Jahnke, Mainieri, Martinez-Sansigre, Mobasher, Murayama, Nagao, Oyama, Salvato, Sanders, Sasaki, Schinnerer, Scoville, Smolcic, Treister, Taniguchi, Trump, Urry, Zamorani)

2 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 2 Black holes in context: Likely tracer of hierarchical dark matter halos Provide hard ionizing continuum, relevant to low-  reionization May regulate galaxy growth / SFR via feedback M-  relation suggests intimate connection between BH/galaxy formation and growth To date: At z ~ 6 - 6.5, already have supermassive BHs to ~ 10 9 M o ( Fan et al 2001-06; Willott et al. 2003; Vestergaard et al. 2004 ) AGN LF evolves strongly from z~6 to z~2; PLE is ruled out ( Fan et al. 2001+; Richards et al. 2006 ) Faint end of AGN LF steepens at z~6 ( Jiang et al 2009, Fan et al. (Richards et al. 2006)

3 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 3 Instead of PLE, AGN appear to follow “anti-hierarchical evol” -- luminosity-dependent density evolution “LDDE” at least for XLF ( Ueda et al. 2003, Hasinger et al. 2005; Gilli, Comastri, Hasinger 2006), QSO LF (Richards et al. 2006 ); also Merloni et al. (2004) : –luminous AGN peak earlier (z~2-3) –fainter AGN peak more recently (z~1) (XLF; Hasinger et al. 2005) (QSO LF, Richards et al. 2006)

4 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 4 Below L X ~ 10 44 erg s -1, density evolution is drastically different from higher-lum sources, peaking at lower z higher-lum sources show essentially pure density evolution suggests possible difference in accretion / galaxy evolution as a function of luminosity (Hasinger et al. 2005)

6 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 6 Questions: How do the most massive BHs form within < 1 Gyr? How does BH growth influence the M-  relation? What is the ionizing budget of AGN integrated over the LF beyond z ~ 6, and its contribution to reionization? (How) does obscured/unobsc. AGN ratio evolve at high z? Our knowledge has been limited by the following: only the top of the AGN LF has been studied at z ~ 6 no AGN previously confirmed at z > 7 Approach: Understand AGN / SFR evolution at z ~ 2 - 5 Set out to quantify the faint end of AGN LF at z ~ 6 Search for more luminous AGN at z > ~ 6 - 7

11 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 11 CDFS/GOODS-S+N survey: powerful combination of wide area and depth, opt/Xray: CDFS + CDFN have 1 & 2 Msec Chandra depth respectively –X-ray depth sufficient for AGN LF faint end (L X ~10 43-44 erg s -1 ) up to z ≥ 6 - 7 –area sufficient (0.1 sq deg) to provide number statistics on AGN LF at these redshifts More than 800 AGN from Chandra in GOODS-N & S (> 600 covered by HST/ACS and Spitzer) Extensive optical spectroscopic coverage Deep multi-band optical/NIR/Spitzer coverage: –JHK + Spitzer/IRAC 3.6 – 8  m observations trace host stellar mass for z > 1-2 –Spitzer/MIPS 24  m data helps constrain thermal dust emission

13 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 13 Advantages of X-ray selection: avoid obscuration effects in optical/IR at z > 2-3, hard X-rays are redshifted into soft observed X-ray bandpass, allows a more complete selection of obscured AGN (except for Compton thick sources) allows selection of more AGN than radio selection. Other wavelengths needed: deep optical to ensure good identification of dropouts: –at least R,I, preferably also z deep near-IR to provide detections relative to optical: –at least K, preferably also J,H Spitzer data to allow SED fitting: –at least IRAC 3.6 - 8 micron, preferably also MIPS 24 micron

14 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 14 Starformation in obscured AGN: IRAC colours Significant fraction (~50%) of z~2-4 obscured AGN show strong SFR signatures (Brusa et al. 2009): –S(8.0)/S(4.5) < 2 classified as SFR-dominated (Pope et al. 2008) (Brusa et al. 2009) Green points: 24  m selected field galaxies Blue points: AGN L X < 10 43 erg s -1 Red points: AGN L X > 10 43 erg s -1 Purple, yellow: other samples of high-z obscured AGN (Pozzi et al 2008, Pope et al 2008)

15 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 15 Starformation in obscured AGN: SFR Comparison with field galaxies: –For 65% of the obscured AGN, find significant SFR (>10M  /yr) –Result is robust for both optically and MIR-selected samples (Brusa et al. 2009) Upper panel: optically-selected field galaxies, AGN Lower panel: MIPS 24  m-selected field galaxies, AGN (Brusa et al. 2009)

16 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 16 Starformation in obscured AGN: SSFR Significant fraction of AGN still have active SSFR w.r.t mass (Alonso-Herrero et al. 2008, Busa et al. 2009) Red colours likely due to dust (not stellar population age)

17 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 17 Increased warm dust in z~1-2 obscured AGN: Lanzuisi et al (2009) sample: SWIRE sources, F24/Fopt > 1000 X-ray spectral properties used to compare with AGN in the local universe (yellow shaded region) Result: majority of the AGN have significant MIR excess wrt intrinsic Lx: requires excess dust component relative to local

(2009)

19 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 19 Expected contributions of AGN & starbursts to LIR Examine triggering of AGN and starbursts in mergers (Hopkins et al 2009) - how significant is the contribution from AGN to the MIR LF? Find that, for log(LIR)>12-13, both starburst & AGN dominate LF To a similar extent, up to z~3

22 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 22 Candidate high-z AGN: X-z-K selection: X-ray properties: Well-detected by Chandra (~10 -16 -10 -15 erg s -1 cm -2 ) F X /F Opt is a lower limit, and is > ~100x above the average for AGN Generally have soft and hard X-ray emission (excludes z<2 obscured AGN) Redder z-K colour: most AGN with F X /F Opt ~ 0.1 - 10 have fairly tight z-K ~1-2, with some slight scatter: –z-K ~ -1 to 2 for quasars/Seyferts –z-K ~ 2 to 4 for ERO’s However, the EXO high-z candidates generally have z-K >4

34 Anton Koekemoer (STScI) Black Holes - STScI Spring Symposium, 23-26 Apr 2007 34 Summary: New results by several groups on z~2-4 AGN: –Many AGN are now found to have strong MIR SFR signatures –May be seeing “pre/post-blowout” QSO phase in action Overall number of high-z candidate AGN found in GOODS+COSMOS supports steepening of LF at z~6-7: –Intermediate-z interlopers successfully accounted for, and removed from dropout samples –Not clear yet whether faint-end slope needs to change as well or whether evolution can be accounted for by change in L* Next steps: –larger/deeper coverage at MIR with Spitzer and Herschel to better constrain rest-frame opt/IR and dust SEDs MAIN QUESTION: –What observational signatures to look for in determining the direction of causality for BH / bulge growth?
