论文摘要

我们讨论了最近从遮盖的活性银河核(AGN)的电离时代($ z \ gtrsim 6.5 $)的Lyman-Alpha发射器(LAES)中观察到的双峰型号的可能起源。结合了这些星系中蓝色峰速度抵消的Lyman-$α$接近区域的范围,以及类星体在$ z \ gtrsim 6 $ 6 $中的电离发射率,我们预测Intinsic UV和X射线射击力的AGN需要产生双重座谈会的profiles。我们还通过将AGN的亮度与在这些时期的类似类似样品的亮度进行比较来估算了AGN的遮阳度的程度。未来的X射线和无线电观察结果,以及具有$ {James \ Webb \ Space \ Telescope} $的观测值,将是测试AGN对高红色shift Laes的静脉间电离区的贡献的宝贵工具。

We discuss the possible origin of the double-peaked profiles recently observed in Lyman-Alpha Emitters (LAEs) at the epoch of reionization ($z \gtrsim 6.5$) from obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN). Combining the extent of the Lyman-$α$ near-zones estimated from the blue peak velocity offset in these galaxies, with the ionizing emissivity of quasars at $z \gtrsim 6$, we forecast the intrinsic UV and X-ray luminosities of the AGN needed to give rise to their double-peaked profiles. We also estimate the extent of the obscuration of the AGN by comparing their luminosities to those of similar quasar samples at these epochs. Future X-ray and radio observations, as well as those with the ${James \ Webb \ Space \ Telescope}$, will be valuable tools to test the AGN contribution to the intergalactic-scale ionization zones of high-redshift LAEs.
