ZENS IV. Similar Morphological Changes associated with Mass- and Environment-Quenching, and the Relative importance of Bulge Growth versus the Fading of Disks

C. M. Carollo, A. Cibinel, S. J. Lilly +6

We use ZENS data at low redshift to study the dependence of the quenched satellite fraction and of the morphological mix of these quenched satellites, on three different environmen…

The FMOS-COSMOS survey of star-forming galaxies at z ~ 1.6. I. Hα-based star formation rates and dust extinction

D. Kashino, J. D. Silverman, G. Rodighiero +26

We present the first results from a near-IR spectroscopic survey of the COSMOS field, using the Fiber Multi-Object Spectrograph on the Subaru telescope, designed to characterize th…

Unveiling a population of galaxies harboring low-mass black holes with X-rays

M. Schramm, J. D. Silverman, J. E. Greene +7

We report the discovery of three low-mass black hole candidates residing in the centers of low-mass galaxies at z<0.3 in the Chandra Deep Field - South Survey. These black holes ar…

The SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: The Quasar Luminosity Function from Data Release Nine

Nicholas P. Ross, Ian D. McGreer, Martin White +39

We present a new measurement of the optical Quasar Luminosity Function (QLF), using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III: Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (SDSS-III: B…

Spectral Energy Distributions of Type 1 AGN in the COSMOS Survey I - The XMM-COSMOS Sample

M. Elvis, H. Hao, F. Civano +39

The "Cosmic Evolution Survey" (COSMOS) enables the study of the Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) because of the deep coverage and rich sampling…

Bolometric luminosities and Eddington ratios of X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei in the XMM-COSMOS survey

E. Lusso, A. Comastri, B. D. Simmons +25

Bolometric luminosities and Eddington ratios of both X-ray selected broad-line (Type-1) and narrow-line (Type-2) AGN from the XMM-Newton survey in the COSMOS field are presented. T…

The Zurich Environmental Study (ZENS) of Galaxies in Groups along the Cosmic Web. I. Which Environment Affects Galaxy Evolution?

C. M. Carollo, A. Cibinel, S. J. Lilly +9

The Zurich Environmental Study (ZENS) is based on a sample of ~1500 galaxy members of 141 groups in the mass range ~10^12.5-14.5 M_sun within the narrow redshift range 0.05<z<0.058…

A journey from the outskirts to the cores of groups I: Color- and mass-segregation in 20K-zCOSMOS groups

V. Presotto, A. Iovino, M. Scodeggio +49

Using the group catalog obtained from zCOSMOS spectroscopic data and the complementary photometric data from the COSMOS survey, we explore segregation effects occurring in groups o…

The impact of galaxy interactions on AGN activity in zCOSMOS

J. D. Silverman, P. Kampczyk, K. Jahnke +52

Close encounters between galaxies are expected to be a viable mechanism, as predicted by numerical simulations, by which accretion onto supermassive black holes can be initiated. T…

Probing the faint end of the quasar luminosity function at z ~ 4 in the COSMOS field

H. Ikeda, T. Nagao, K. Matsuoka +16

We searched for quasars that are ~ 3 mag fainter than the SDSS quasars in the redshift range 3.7 < z < 4.7 in the COSMOS field to constrain the faint end of the quasar luminosity f…
