Physical Properties of 15 Quasars at z ≳ 6.5

Quasars are galaxies hosting accreting supermassive black holes; due to their brightness, they are unique probes of the early universe. To date, only a few quasars have been reported at z > 6.5 (< 800 Myr after the big bang). In this work, we present six additional z greater than or similar to...
