Evolution of Supermassive Black Holes and their Host Galaxies at z > 6 with JWST
Clues on the formation of supermassive black holes may be found in the properties of their host galaxies and mass relations with cosmic time. We will present results from JWST programs based on the Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) at z > 6. The detection of the host galaxies enables the first assessment of the intrinsic ratio between black hole mass and stellar mass with consideration of selection effects and measurement uncertainties. Furthermore, new results will be presented on the detection of lower mass black holes, which highlight a large population of undermassive black holes at z > 6 just beginning to be tapped by JWST.
