Dust emission from the most distant quasars
We report observations of three SDSS z > 6 QSOs at 250 GHz (1.2 mm) using the 117-channel MaxPlanck Millimeter Bolometer (MAMBO-2) array at the IRAM 30-meter telescope. J1148+5251 (z = 6.41) and J1048+4637 (z = 6.23) were detected with 250 GHz flux densities of 5.0±0.6mJy and 3.0±0.4 mJy, respectively. J1630+4012 (z = 6.05) was not detected with a 3σ upper limit of 1.8 mJy. Upper flux density l...
متن کاملThermal Emission from Warm Dust in the Most Distant Quasars
We report new continuum observations of fourteen z∼6 quasars at 250 GHz and fourteen quasars at 1.4 GHz. We summarize all recent millimeter and radio observations of the sample of the thirty-three quasars known with 5.71 ≤ z ≤ 6.43, and present a study of the rest frame far-infrared (FIR) properties of this sample. These quasars were observed with the Max Plank Millimeter Bolometer Array (MAMBO...
متن کاملMicron Dust Emission from High Redshift Quasars
We report detections of six high-redshift (1.8 ≤ z ≤ 6.4), optically luminous, radio-quiet quasars at 350 μm, using the SHARC II bolometer camera at the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. Our observations double the number of high-redshift quasars for which 350 μm photometry is available. By combining the 350 μm measurements with observations at other submillimeter/millimeter wavelengths, for e...
متن کاملExtreme gas properties in the most distant quasars
We present near-IR, low resolution spectra of eight of the most distant quasars known, with redshifts in the range 4.9<z<6.4. Half of these quasars are characterized by deep, broad and blueshifted absorption features associated with both high and low ionization species (CIV, SiIV, AlIII, MgII), i.e. they belong to the class of Broad Absorption Line (BAL) quasars, which are associated with power...
متن کاملFinding the most distant quasars using Bayesian selection methods
Quasars, the brightly glowing disks of material that can form around the super-massive black holes at the centres of large galaxies, are amongst the most luminous astronomical objects known and so can be seen at great distances. The most distant known quasars are seen as they were when the Universe was less than a billion years old (i.e., ∼ 7% of its current age). Such distant quasars are, howe...
