Data pubblicazione: | 2019 | Rivista: | THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL LETTERS | Numero: | 877 | Fascicolo: | 2 | Da pagina:: | L38 | Abstract: | We investigate a sample of 152 dusty sources at 1.5 < z < 2.5 to understand the connection of enhanced star formation rate (SFR) and black hole accretion rate. The sources are Herschel-selected, having stellar masses M * > 1010 M ☉ and SFR (∼100-1000 M ☉ yr-1) elevated (>4×) above the star-forming “main sequence,” classifying them as starbursts (SBs). Through a multiwavelength fitting approach (including a dusty torus component), we divided the sample into active SBs (dominated by an active galactic nucleus (AGN) emission, SBs-AGN, ∼23% of the sample) and purely star-forming SBs (SBs-SFR). We visually inspected their Hubble Space Telescope/ultraviolet (UV) rest frame maps: SBs-SFR are generally irregular and composite systems; ∼50% of SBs-AGN are instead dominated by regular compact morphologies. We then found archival Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array continuum counterparts for 33 galaxies (12 SBs-AGN and 21 SBs-SFR). For these sources we computed dust masses, and, with standard assumptions, we also guessed total molecular gas masses. SBs turn into gas-rich systems (f gas = M gas/(M gas + M *) ≃ 20%-70%), and the gas fractions of the two SB classes are very similar (f gas = 43% ± 4% and f gas = 42% ± 2%). Our results show that SBs are consistent with a mixture of: (1) highly star-forming merging systems (dominating the SBs-SFR) and (2) primordial galaxies, rapidly growing their M * together with their black hole (mainly the more compact SBs-AGN). Feedback effects have not yet reduced their f gas. Indeed, SBs at z = 2, with relatively low bolometric AGN luminosities in the range 1044 < L bol(AGN) < 1046 erg s-1 (compared to bright optical and X-ray quasars), are still relatively far from the epoch when the AGN feedback will quench the SFR in the host and will substantially depress the gas fractions. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/30311 | URL: | https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/ab222e | ISSN: | 2041-8205 | DOI: | 10.3847/2041-8213/ab222e | Bibcode ADS: | 2019ApJ...877L..38R | Fulltext: | open |
