Direct Collapse Pre-supermassive Black Hole Objects as Lyα Emitters

The Direct Collapse scenario to form the supermassive black hole (SMBH) seeds offers the most promising way to explain the origin of quasars at z  > 7. Assuming atomic primordial gas, can Ly α photons escape from the central regions of the collapse and serve as a diagnostic for the detection of t...
