论文摘要
我们介绍了活性银河核(AGN)的X射线光度函数(XLF)的新建模,向z $ \ sim $ 3介绍,解剖了主序列(MS)和Starburst(SB)星系的贡献。对于每个星系人群,我们将观察到的星系恒星质量(m $ _ {\ star} $)发挥作用,其网格为m $ _ {\ star} $ - 独立的Eddington比率($λ_{\λ_{\ rm Edd} $),通过经验性黑洞的估计率(Bhhar)的经验范围(BHHAR)正常于SIRTAINT(BHHAR)。由于z $ \ sim $ 3,我们的简单方法与观察到的XLF达成了极好的一致性。我们发现,只有通过$λ_{\ rm edd} $分布的固有扁平化,并且随着断裂$λ^{*} $的积极转移,才能复制所观察到的XLF的红移演变,与反外层行为一致。 AGN积聚历史主要是由巨大的(10 $^{10} <$ m $ _ {\ star} <$ 10 $ 10 $^{11} $ m $ _ {\ odot} $ MS Galaxies,而SB驱动的BH积分,而可能与Galaxy Mergers $相关,在$ quass中,$ x} $/erg s $^{ - 1} $)$> $ 44.36 + 1.28 $ \ cdot $(1 + z)。我们推断,发现高度精神的概率($λ_ {\ rm edd}> $ 10%)AGN随着红移的增长而大大增加,从0.4%(3.0%)在z = 0.5%= 0.5%至6.5%至6.5%(15.3%)到MS(SB)星系的Z = 3时,含量更长的AGN星系,暗示了更长的AGN早期Univer in the Early Univer Cyce in the Early Univer Cycece。我们的结果强烈利用BHAR和SFR之间的M $ _ {\ Star} $ - 依赖性比率,因为Bhar/sfr $ \ propto $ m $ _ {\ star}^{0.73 [+0.22,-0.29]} $,支撑了与主机相对的非线性BH堆积。最后,该框架为超级 - 埃德丁顿BH积聚和不同的$λ_ {\ rm edd} $处方提供了潜在的问题,以理解宇宙BH质量组件。
We present a new modeling of the X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) out to z$\sim$3, dissecting the contribution of main-sequence (MS) and starburst (SB) galaxies. For each galaxy population, we convolved the observed galaxy stellar mass (M$_{\star}$) function with a grid of M$_{\star}$-independent Eddington ratio ($λ_{\rm EDD}$) distributions, normalised via empirical black hole accretion rate (BHAR) to star formation rate (SFR) relations. Our simple approach yields an excellent agreement with the observed XLF since z$\sim$3. We find that the redshift evolution of the observed XLF can only be reproduced through an intrinsic flattening of the $λ_{\rm EDD}$ distribution, and with a positive shift of the break $λ^{*}$, consistent with an anti-hierarchical behavior. The AGN accretion history is predominantly made by massive (10$^{10}<$M$_{\star}<$10$^{11}$ M$_{\odot}$) MS galaxies, while SB-driven BH accretion, possibly associated with galaxy mergers, becomes dominant only in bright quasars, at $\log$(L$_{\rm X}$/erg s$^{-1}$)$>$44.36 + 1.28$\cdot$(1+z). We infer that the probability of finding highly-accreting ($λ_{\rm EDD}>$ 10%) AGN significantly increases with redshift, from 0.4% (3.0%) at z=0.5 to 6.5% (15.3%) at z=3 for MS (SB) galaxies, implying a longer AGN duty cycle in the early Universe. Our results strongly favor a M$_{\star}$-dependent ratio between BHAR and SFR, as BHAR/SFR $\propto$ M$_{\star}^{0.73[+0.22,-0.29]}$, supporting a non-linear BH buildup relative to the host. Finally, this framework opens potential questions on super-Eddington BH accretion and different $λ_{\rm EDD}$ prescriptions for understanding the cosmic BH mass assembly.
