Constraining the Properties of Black Hole Seeds from the Farthest Quasars
Over 60 yr after the discovery of the first quasar, more than 275 such sources are identified in the epoch of reionization at z > 6. JWST is now exploring higher redshifts ( z ≳ 8) and lower-mass (≲10 ^7 M _⊙ ) ranges. The discovery of progressively farther quasars is instrumental to constraining...
