The Age of Discovery with JWST: Excavating the First Massive Black Holes and First Galaxies
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is opening a new window of the most distant universe and will unveil the early growth of supermassive black holes (BHs) in the first galaxies.The existence of supermassive massive BHs observed when the universe was younger than one billion years strongly constrains their formation pathway and provides a crucial hint to understand the coevolution between BHs...

Quasars in a Neutral Universe
During the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) primeval galaxies and accreting black holes reionized and reheated the hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM) ending the preceding cosmic `dark ages'. Understanding how reionization occurred and the nature of the early sources that drove it are among the most important open questions in cosmology. The latest cosmic microwave background constraints sugg...
