Observational evidence for intermediate-mass black holes
TL;DR: Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), with masses in the range 100-106M⊙, are the link between stellar-mass BHs and supermassive BHS (SMBHs) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Candidate Massive Black Hole in the Low-metallicity Dwarf Galaxy Pair Mrk 709
Amy E. Reines,Richard M. Plotkin,Thomas D. Russell,Mar Mezcua,Mar Mezcua,James J. Condon,Gregory R. Sivakoff,Kelsey E. Johnson +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, high-resolution X-ray and radio observations of the low-metallicity, star-forming, dwarf-galaxy system Mrk 709 with the Chandra Xray Observatory and the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A population of intermediate-mass black holes in dwarf starburst galaxies up to redshift = 1.5
Mar Mezcua,Mar Mezcua,Francesca Civano,Francesca Civano,Giuseppina Fabbiano,Takamitsu Miyaji,Takamitsu Miyaji,S. Marchesi,S. Marchesi +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a sample of 50,000 dwarf starburst and late-type galaxies drawn from the COSMOS survey with the aim of investigating the presence of nuclear accreting black holes (BHs) as those seed BHs from which supermassive BHOs could grow in the early Universe was studied.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present their present understanding of this remarkable formation scenario, based on the discussions held at the Monash Prato Centre from November 20 to 24, 2017, during the workshop "Titans of the Early Universe: The Origin of the First Supermassive Black Holes".
