摘要:
Massive black holes (MBHs) grow together with their host galaxies throughout cosmic time. I will talk about our recent efforts covering low to high levels (i.e., basic data analyses to scientific interpretation) in building a complete picture of the MBH growth under the accretion-driven and merger-driven channels. I will first highlight the multiwavelength data in three Deep-Drilling Fields of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, based on which many more scientific topics have been investigated. With the data preparations, I will present the best measurements of the population mean MBH accretion rate as a function of galaxy stellar mass and redshift, where we use X-rays to sample the AGN accretion power and multiwavelength surveys to sample galaxies. I will then combine our observed accretion with modern cosmological simulations, which provide merger information, to illustrate how MBHs evolve from z = 4 to z = 0. In the final part, I will present our searches and characterizations of MBHs in dwarf galaxies, including their active fraction and occupation fraction, which can constrain MBH seeding mechanisms in the early Universe.
