We use ALMA observations of the host galaxy of the quasar ULAS-J1342+0928 at z=7.54 to study the dust continuum and far infrared lines emitted from its interstellar medium. The Rayleigh-Jeans tail of the dust continuum is well sampled with eight different spectral setups, and from a modified black body fit we obtain an emissivity coefficient of beta=1.85+-0.3. Assuming a standard dust temperature of 47 K we derive a dust mass of Mdust=0.35x10^8 Msol and a star formation rate of 150+-30 Msol/yr. We have >4sigma detections of the [CII]_158, [OIII]_88 and [NII]_122 atomic fine structure lines and limits on the [CI]_369, [OI]_146 and [NII]_205 emission. We also report multiple limits of CO rotational lines with Jup >= 7, as well as a tentative 3.3sigma detection of the stack of four CO lines (Jup=11, 10, 8, 7). We find line deficits that are in agreement with local ultra luminous infrared galaxies. Comparison of the [NII]_122 and [CII]_158 lines indicates that the [CII]_158 emission arises predominantly from the neutral medium, and we estimate that the photo-disassociation regions in J1342+0928 have densities <~5x10^4cm^-3. The data suggest that ~16% of hydrogen is in ionized form and that the HII regions have high electron densities of n_e>180 cm^-3. Our observations favor a low gas-to-dust ratio of <100 and a metallicity of the interstellar medium comparable to the Solar value. All the measurements presented here suggest that the host galaxy of J1342+0928 is highly enriched in metal and dust, despite being observed just 680 Myr after the Big Bang.

We present a multi-line survey of the interstellar medium (ISM) in two $z>6$ quasar (QSO) host galaxies, PJ231-20 ($z=6.59$) and PJ308-21 ($z=6.23$), and their two companion galaxies. Observations were carried out using the Atacama Large (sub-)Millim
eter Array (ALMA). We targeted eleven transitions including atomic fine structure lines (FSLs) and molecular lines: [NII]$_{rm 205mu m}$, [CI]$_{rm 369mu m}$, CO ($J_{rm up} = 7, 10, 15, 16$), H$_2$O $3_{12}-2_{21}$, $3_{21}-3_{12}$, $3_{03}-2_{12}$, and the OH$_{rm 163mu m}$ doublet. The underlying far-infrared (FIR) continuum samples the Rayleigh-Jeans tail of the respective dust emission. By combining this information with our earlier ALMA [CII]$_{rm 158mu m}$ observations, we explore the effects of star formation and black hole feedback on the galaxies ISM using the CLOUDY radiative transfer models. We estimate dust masses, spectral indexes, IR luminosities, and star-formation rates from the FIR continuum. The analysis of the FSLs indicates that the [CII]$_{rm 158mu m}$ and [CI]$_{rm 369mu m}$ emission arises predominantly from the neutral medium in photodissociation regions (PDRs). We find that line deficits are in agreement with those of local luminous infrared galaxies. The CO spectral line energy distributions (SLEDs), reveal significant high-$J$ CO excitation in both quasar hosts. Our CO SLED modeling of the quasar PJ231-20 shows that PDRs dominate the molecular mass and CO luminosities for $J_{rm up}le 7$, while the $J_{rm up}ge10$ CO emission is likely driven by X-ray dissociation regions produced by the active galactic nucleus (AGN) at the very center of the quasar host [abridged].
We present IRAM/NOEMA and JVLA observations of the quasar J1342+0928 at z=7.54 and report detections of copious amounts of dust and [CII] emission in the interstellar medium (ISM) of its host galaxy. At this redshift, the age of the universe is 690 M
yr, about 10% younger than the redshift of the previous quasar record holder. Yet, the ISM of this new quasar host galaxy is significantly enriched by metals, as evidenced by the detection of the [CII] 158micron cooling line and the underlying far-infrared (FIR) dust continuum emission. To the first order, the FIR properties of this quasar host are similar to those found at a slightly lower redshift (z~6), making this source by far the FIR-brightest galaxy known at z>7.5. The [CII] emission is spatially unresolved, with an upper limit on the diameter of 7 kpc. Together with the measured FWHM of the [CII] line, this yields a dynamical mass of the host of <1.5x10^11 M_sun. Using standard assumptions about the dust temperature and emissivity, the NOEMA measurements give a dust mass of (0.6-4.3)x10^8 M_sun. The brightness of the [CII] luminosity, together with the high dust mass, imply active ongoing star formation in the quasar host. Using [CII]-SFR scaling relations, we derive star formation rates of 85-545 M_sun/yr in the host, consistent with the values derived from the dust continuum. Indeed, an episode of such past high star formation is needed to explain the presence of ~10^8 M_sun of dust implied by the observations.
The most distant known quasar recently discovered by Ba~nados et al. (2018) is at $z=7.5$ (690 Myr after the Big Bang), at the dawn of galaxy formation. We explore the host galaxy of the brightest quasar in the large volume cosmological hydrodynamic
simulation BlueTides, which in Phase II has reached these redshifts. The brightest quasar in BlueTides has a luminosity of a $sim$ few $10^{13} L_{odot}$ and a black hole mass of $6.4 times 10^{8} M_{odot}$ at $z sim 7.5$, comparable to the observed quasar (the only one in this large volume). The quasar resides in a rare halo of mass $M_{H} sim 10^{12} M_{odot}$ and has a host galaxy of stellar mass of $4 times 10^{10}M_{odot}$ with an ongoing (intrinsic) star formation rate of $sim 80 M_{odot} yr^{-1}$. The corresponding intrinsic UV magnitude of the galaxy is $-23.1$, which is roughly $2.7$ magnitudes fainter than the quasars magnitude of $-25.9$. We find that the galaxy is highly metal enriched with a mean metallicity equal to the solar value. We derive quasar and galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED) in the mid and near infrared JWST bands. We predict a significant amount of dust attenuation in the rest-frame UV corresponding to $A_{1500} sim 1.7$ giving an UV based SFR of $sim 14 M_{odot} yr^{-1}$. We present mock JWST images of the galaxy with and without central point source, in different MIRI and NIRCam filters. The host galaxy is detectable in NIRCam filters, but it is extremely compact ($R_{E}=0.35$ kpc). It will require JWSTs exquisite sensitivity and resolution to separate the galaxy from the central point source. Finally within the FOV of the quasar in BlueTides there are two more sources that would be detectable by JWST.
We present the discovery of PSO J083.8371+11.8482, a weak emission line quasar with extreme star formation rate at $z=6.3401$. This quasar was selected from Pan-STARRS1, UHS, and unWISE photometric data. Gemini/GNIRS spectroscopy follow-up indicates
a MgII-based black hole mass of $M_mathrm{BH}=left(2.0^{+0.7}_{-0.4}right)times10^9~M_odot$ and an Eddington ratio of $L_mathrm{bol}/L_mathrm{Edd}=0.5^{+0.1}_{-0.2}$, in line with actively accreting supermassive black hole (SMBH) at $zgtrsim6$. HST imaging sets strong constraint on lens-boosting, showing no relevant effect on the apparent emission. The quasar is also observed as a pure point-source with no additional emission component. The broad line region (BLR) emission is intrinsically weak and not likely caused by an intervening absorber. We found rest-frame equivalent widths of EW(Ly$alpha$+NV) $=5.7pm0.7$ Angstrom, EW(CIV) $leq5.8$ Angstrom (3-sigma upper limit), and EW(MgII) $=8.7pm0.7$ Angstrom. A small proximity zone size ($R_mathrm{p}=1.2pm0.4$ pMpc) indicates a lifetime of only $t_mathrm{Q}=10^{3.4pm0.7}$ years from the last quasar phase ignition. ALMA shows extended [CII] emission with a mild velocity gradient. The inferred far-infrared luminosity ($L_mathrm{FIR}=(1.2pm0.1)times10^{13},L_odot$) is one of the highest among all known quasar hosts at $zgtrsim6$. Dust and [CII] emissions put a constraint on the star formation rate of SFR $=900-4900~M_odot,mathrm{yr^{-1}}$, similar to that of hyper-luminous infrared galaxy. Considering the observed quasar lifetime and BLR formation timescale, the weak-line profile in the quasar spectrum is most likely caused by a BLR which is not yet fully formed rather than continuum boosting by gravitational lensing or a soft continuum due to super-Eddington accretion.
We present ALMA band-7 data of the [CII] $lambda157.74,mu{rm m}$ emission line and underlying far-infrared (FIR) continuum for twelve luminous quasars at $z simeq 4.8$, powered by fast-growing supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Our total sample consis
ts of eighteen quasars, twelve of which are presented here for the first time. The new sources consists of six Herschel/SPIRE detected systems, which we define as FIR-bright sources, and six Herschel/SPIRE undetected systems, which we define as FIR-faint sources. We determine dust masses for the quasars hosts of $M_{dust} le 0.2-25.0times 10^8 M_{odot}$, implying ISM gas masses comparable to the dynamical masses derived from the [CII] kinematics. It is found that on average the MgII line is blueshifted by $sim 500,{rm km,s}^{-1}$ with respect to the [CII] emission line, which is also observed when complementing our observations with data from the literature. We find that all of our FIR-bright subsample and most of the FIR-faint objects lie above the main sequence of star forming galaxies at $z sim 5$. We detect companion sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) for two sources, both FIR-faint, with a range of projected distances of $sim20-60$ kpc and with typical velocity shifts of $left|Delta vright| lesssim200,{rm km,s}^{-1}$ from the quasar hosts. Of our total sample of eighteen quasars, 5/18 are found to have dust obscured starforming companions.
