PRIMUS: The dependence of AGN accretion on host stellar mass and color

James Aird, Alison L. Coil, John Moustakas +7

We present evidence that the incidence of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and the distribution of their accretion rates do not depend on the stellar masses of their host galaxies, co…
