The Obscured Fraction of AGN in the XMM-COSMOS Survey: A Spectral Energy Distribution Perspective

E. Lusso, J. F. Hennawi, A. Comastri +7

The fraction of AGN luminosity obscured by dust and re-emitted in the mid-IR is critical for understanding AGN evolution, unification, and parsec-scale AGN physics. For unobscured…
