abstract

Hot dust-obscured galaxies (Hot DOGs), are a family of hyper-luminous, heavily obscured quasars. A number of studies have shown that these objects reside in significantly overdense regions of the Universe based on the identification of companions at optical through far-IR wavelengths. Here we present further characterization of their environments by studying the surface density of Lyman break galaxy (LBG) candidates in the vicinity of three Hot DOGs. For two of them, WISE J041010.60-091305.2 at z=3.631 and WISE J083153.25+014010.8 at z=3.912, we identify the candidate LBG companions using deep observations obtained with Baade/IMACS. For the third, WISE J224607.56-052634.9 at z=4.601, we re-analyse previously published data obtained with Gemini-S/GMOS-S. We optimise the LBG photometric selection criteria at the redshift of each target using the COSMOS2020 catalog. When comparing the density of LBG candidates found in the vicinity of these Hot DOGs with that in the COSMOS2020 catalog, we find overdensities of $\delta=1.83\pm 0.08$ ($\delta' = 7.49\pm 0.68$), $\delta=4.67\pm 0.21$ ($\delta' = 29.17\pm 2.21$), and $\delta = 2.36\pm 0.25$ ($\delta' = 11.60\pm 1.96$) around W0410-0913, W0831+0140, and W2246-0526, respectively, without (with) contamination correction. Additionally, we find that the overdensities are centrally concentrated around each Hot DOG. Our analysis also reveals that the overdensity of the fields surrounding W0410-0913 and W0831+0140 declines steeply beyond physical scales of $\sim$2 Mpc. If these overdensities evolve to clusters by z=0, these results suggest that the Hot DOG may correspond to the early formation stages of the brightest cluster galaxy. We were unable to determine if this is also the case for W2246-0526 due to the smaller field of view of the GMOS-S observations. Our results imply that Hot DOGs may be excellent tracers of protoclusters.

  1. Evidence for universal gas depletion in a sample of 41 luminous Type 1 quasars at z $\sim$ 2

    astro-ph.GA 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Luminous unobscured quasars at z~2 have molecular gas fractions of 2-32 percent, generally lower than those of inactive galaxies and obscured quasars, supporting an obscured-to-unobscured evolutionary sequence.

  2. Multi-Component Ionized Gas Outflows in a Hot Dust-Obscured Galaxy W2026+0716 with Keck/OSIRIS

    astro-ph.GA 2025-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    W2026+0716 hosts a multi-component, likely biconical ionized gas outflow in which [O III] and H-alpha trace separated spatial regions with deprojected outflow velocities near 3210 and 2310 km/s.

  3. Powerful nuclear outflows and circumgalactic medium shocks driven by the most luminous known obscured quasar in the Universe

    astro-ph.GA 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    JWST observations of the most luminous obscured quasar at z=4.6 reveal a 10 kpc shock-excited nebula and a 13,000 km/s nuclear outflow whose energy budget can account for the large-scale turbulence and shocks.
