The fate of an infalling circumgalactic gas clump and the growth of the central massive black hole in a high-redshift quasar

Since the discovery of SMBHs at z > 6, the growth spurt of a BH in a relatively short time—a few hundred Myr—has been a challenging topic for many observers and theorists. Super-Eddington accretion, major and minor merger have been compelling candidate machanisms to account for such growth. We introduce a passive scalar field to trace the infalling of circumgalactic gas clump onto high-z quasar. With the scalar field, we investigate e.g. where the most of the gas clump eventually reside in the host galaxy and how much gas is accreted onto the central massive black hole. In addition, we have studied the impact of thermal feedback of stars on the growth of black hole and the infalling gas. We will also discuss the future application of passive scalar field in e.g. minor and major mergers of high-z quasar.
