Dark matter accretion wakes of high-redshift black holes

چکیده

Anisotropic emission of gravitational waves during the merger or formation of black holes can lead to the ejection of these black holes from their host galaxies. A recoiled black hole which moves on an almost radial bound orbit outside the virial radius of its central galaxy, in the cold dark matter background, reaches its apapsis in a finite time. The low value of dark matter velocity dispersion at high redshifts and the black hole velocity near the apapsis passage yield a high-density wake around these black holes. Gamma-ray emission can result from the enhancement of dark matter annihilation in these wakes. The diffuse high-energy gamma-ray background from the ensemble of such black holes in the Hubble volume is also evaluated.

Gamma-ray Emission from Dark Matter Wakes of Recoiled Black Holes

A new scenario for the emission of high-energy gamma-rays from dark matter annihilation around massive black holes is presented. A black hole can leave its parent halo, by means of gravitational radiation recoil, in a merger event or in the asymmetric collapse of its progenitor star. A recoiled black hole which moves on an almost radial orbit outside the virial radius of its central halo, in th...

High-redshift supermassive black holes: accretion through cold flows

We use zoom-in techniques to re-simulate three high-redshift (z ≥ 5.5) haloes which host 109 M black holes from the ∼Gpc volume, MassiveBlack cosmological hydrodynamic simulation. We examine a number of factors potentially affecting supermassive black hole growth at high redshift in cosmological simulations. We find insignificant differences in the black hole accretion history by (i) varying th...

High - redshift galaxies , their active nuclei and central blackholesMartin

We demonstrate that the luminosity function of the recently detected population of actively star-forming galaxies at redshift three and the B-band QSO luminosity function at the same redshift can both be matched with the mass function of dark matter haloes predicted by standard variants of hierarchical cosmogonies for lifetimes of optically bright QSOs anywhere in the range 10 6 to 10 8 yr. The...

The Cosmological History of Accretion onto Supermassive Black Holes

It is argued that supermassive black holes in the nuclei of galaxies most likely have grown coevally with their host dark matter halos. A calculation based on PressSchechter within this framework shows that the mean rate of accretion of matter onto such black holes varies from a value about 0.003 of the Eddington rate at the present epoch to a value around 0.08 at redshift 3. The bulk of AGN ev...

Growth of Structure Seeded by Primordial Black Holes

We discuss the possibilities for primordial black holes (PBHs) to grow via the accretion of dark matter. In agreement with previous works, we find that accretion during the radiation-dominated era does not lead to a significant mass increase. However, during matter-domination, PBHs may grow by up to two orders of magnitude in mass through the acquisition of large dark matter halos. We discuss t...
