AGN X-ray variability in the XMM-COSMOS survey
G. Lanzuisi, G. Ponti, M. Salvato +18
We took advantage of the observations carried out by XMM in the COSMOS field during 3.5 years, to study the long term variability of a large sample of AGN (638 sources), in a wide…
The incidence of obscuration in active galactic nuclei
A. Merloni, A. Bongiorno, M. Brusa +22
We study the incidence of nuclear obscuration on a complete sample of 1310 AGN selected on the basis of their rest-frame 2-10 keV X-ray flux from the XMM-COSMOS survey, in the reds…
Star-formation in active galaxies to z~2: a perspective from Herschel studies
D. J. Rosario, D. Lutz, PEP Consortium
In the era of deep, large-area far-infrared (FIR) surveys from the Herschel Space Telescope, the bulk of the star-formation in distant galaxies, once hidden by dust, is now being r…
The deepest Herschel-PACS far-infrared survey: number counts and infrared luminosity functions from combined PEP/GOODS-H observations
B. Magnelli, P. Popesso, S. Berta +34
We present results from the deepest Herschel-PACS (Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer) far-infrared blank field extragalactic survey, obtained by combining observations of…
Molecular gas mass functions of normal star forming galaxies since z~3
S. Berta, D. Lutz, R. Nordon +7
We use deep far-infrared data from the PEP/GOODS-Herschel surveys and rest frame ultraviolet photometry to study the evolution of the molecular gas mass function of normal star for…
The Herschel PEP/HerMES Luminosity Function. I: Probing the Evolution of PACS selected Galaxies to z~4
C. Gruppioni, F. Pozzi, G. Rodighiero +100
We exploit the deep and extended far infrared data sets (at 70, 100 and 160 um) of the Herschel GTO PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) Survey, in combination with the HERschel Multi tie…
Panchromatic spectral energy distributions of Herschel sources
S. Berta, D. Lutz, P. Santini +24
(abridged) Far-infrared Herschel photometry from the PEP and HerMES programs is combined with ancillary datasets in the GOODS-N, GOODS-S, and COSMOS fields. Based on this rich data…
Accreting SMBHs in the COSMOS field and the connection to their host galaxies
A. Bongiorno, A. Merloni, M. Brusa +22
Using the wide multi-band photometry available in the COSMOS field we explore the host galaxy properties of a large sample of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) obtained by combining X-r…
The AGN content in luminous IR galaxies at z\sim2 from a global SED analysis including Herschel data
F. Pozzi, C. Vignali, C. Gruppioni +16
We use Herschel-PACS far-infrared data, combined with previous multi-band information and mid-IR spectra, to properly account for the presence of an active nucleus and constrain it…
Enhanced star formation rates in AGN hosts with respect to inactive galaxies from PEP-Herschel observations
P. Santini, D. J. Rosario, L. Shao +35
We compare the average star formation (SF) activity in X-ray selected AGN hosts with mass-matched control inactive galaxies,including star forming and quiescent sources, at 0.5<z<2…
X-ray selected AGN Hosts are Similar to Inactive Galaxies out to z=3: Results from CANDELS/CDF-S
D. J. Rosario, M. Mozena, S. Wuyts +18
We use multi-band spatially resolved photometry from the Cosmic Assembly Near-IR Deep Legacy Survey (CANDELS) in the 4 MSec Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S) to explore the nuclear…
LBQS 0103-2753: A Binary Quasar in a Major Merger
G. A. Shields, D. J. Rosario, V. Junkkarinen +3
We present HST and UKIRT spectra and images of the 2 kpc binary quasar LBQS 0103-2753 (z=0.858). The HST images (V- and I-band) show tidal features demonstrating that this system i…
Observational constraints on the physics behind the evolution of AGN since z ~ 1
A. Georgakakis, A. L. Coil, C. N. A. Willmer +7
We explore the evolution with redshift of the rest-frame colours and space densities of AGN hosts (relative to normal galaxies) to shed light on the dominant mechanism that trigger…
Spatially-Resolved Spectroscopy of SDSS J0952+2552: a Confirmed Dual AGN
R. C. McGurk, C. E. Max, D. J. Rosario +3
Most massive galaxies contain supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in their cores. When galaxies merge, gas is driven to nuclear regions and can accrete onto the central black hole. Th…
Host galaxy colour gradients and accretion disc obscuration in AEGIS z~1 X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei
C. M. Pierce, J. M. Lotz, S. Salim +7
We describe the effect of AGN light on host galaxy optical and UV-optical colours, as determined from X-ray-selected AGN host galaxies at z~1, and compare the AGN host galaxy colou…
