The Spectral Energy Distributions of Red 2MASS AGN
Joanna Kuraszkiewicz, Belinda J. Wilkes, Gary Schmidt +7
We present infrared (IR) to X-ray spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 44 red AGN selected from the 2MASS survey on the basis of their red J-K color (>2 mag) and later obse…
Detecting Low-Mass Supermassive Black Holes
Himel Ghosh, Smita Mathur, Fabrizio Fiore +1
We demonstrate the feasibility of uncovering supermassive black holes in late-type, quiescent spiral galaxies by detecting signs of very low-level nuclear activity. We use a combin…
Finding Local Low-mass Supermassive Black Holes
Smita Mathur, Himel Ghosh, Laura Ferrarese +1
The low-mass end of the supermassive black hole mass function is unknown and difficult to determine. Here we discuss our successful program to find active nuclei of late type "norm…
Low-Level Nuclear Activity in Nearby Spiral Galaxies
Himel Ghosh, Smita Mathur, Fabrizio Fiore +1
We are conducting a search for supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses below 10^7 M_sun by looking for signs of extremely low-level nuclear activity in nearby galaxies that ar…
