Photometric redshifts for active galactic nuclei with LePHARE for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory

R. Shirley, M. Salvato, J. Cohen-Tanugi +31

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) play a crucial role in galaxy evolution, but they are a minority of extragalactic sources with diverse Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs), which depe…

Hidden Monsters with SPHEREx I: A goldmine for heavily reddened quasars at cosmic noon

Matthew Stepney, Manda Banerji, Franz E. Bauer +2

Heavily reddened quasars (HRQs) are luminous, dust-obscured broad-line quasars thought to represent a short-lived phase of intense black hole growth and feedback. Previous studies…

Spectroscopic confirmation of dual and offset quasars from the Subaru HSC-SSP program

Shenli Tang, John Silverman, Xavier Prochaska +4

We present a spectroscopic follow-up program targeting closely-separated dual quasar candidates selected from imaging of SDSS quasars with the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strat…

The rest ultraviolet to infrared spectral energy distributions of heavily reddened quasars are "V-shaped" and hot-dust poor

Matthew Stepney, Manda Banerji, Shenli Tang +2

We present a rest-ultraviolet to infrared spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis of 63 heavily reddened quasars (HRQs) at redshifts z=0.7-2.7 and with dust extinctions E(B-V)=…

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1): Euclid spectroscopy of quasars. 1. Identification and redshift determination of 3500 bright quasars

Euclid Collaboration, Y. Fu, R. Bouwens +354

The slitless spectroscopy mode of the NISP onboard Euclid has enabled efficient spectroscopy of objects within a large FoV. We present a large and homogeneous sample of bright quas…

NASIM: Revealing the low surface brightness Universe from legacy VISTA data

Elham Saremi, Ignacio Trujillo, Mohammad Akhlaghi +5

Near-infrared imaging is a powerful technique in observational astronomy, but the bright background, primarily from the Earthś atmosphere, makes the detection of faint features par…

Evidence for universal gas depletion in a sample of 41 luminous Type 1 quasars at z 2

S. J. Molyneux, M. Banerji, M. J. Temple +9

We present ALMA CO observations of the molecular gas in a sample of 41 luminous unobscured quasars at z 2 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. 32 targets comprise the main sam…

A Big Red Dot: Scattered light, host galaxy signatures and multi-phase gas flows in a luminous, heavily reddened quasar at cosmic noon

Matthew Stepney, Manda Banerji, Shenli Tang +5

We present a deep X-Shooter rest-frame UV to optical spectral analysis of the heavily reddened quasar, ULASJ2315+043 at z=2.566, known to reside in a major-merger host galaxy. The…

[OIII] emission in z=2 quasars with and without Broad Absorption Lines

Matthew J. Temple, Amy L. Rankine, Manda Banerji +6

Understanding the links between different phases of outflows from active galactic nuclei is a key goal in extragalactic astrophysics. Here we compare [OIII] 4960,5008 outflow s…

4MOST Consortium Survey 6: Active Galactic Nuclei

A. Merloni, D. A. Alexander, M. Banerji +17

X-ray and mid-infrared emission are signposts of the accretion of matter onto the supermassive black holes that reside at the centres of most galaxies. As a major step towards unde…
