Supermassive black holes at high redshift are expected to be obscured by their massive host galaxies' interstellar medium
We combine results from deep ALMA observations of massive (M*> 10 10 M⊙) galaxies at
different redshifts to show that the column density of their interstellar medium (ISM) rapidly …

CEERS Key Paper. VI. JWST/MIRI Uncovers a Large Population of Obscured AGN at High Redshifts
Abstract Mid-infrared (mid-IR) observations are powerful in identifying heavily obscured
active galactic nuclei (AGN) that have weak emission in other wavelengths. Data from the …
