The Swift/BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- IX. The Clustering Environments of an Unbiased Sample of Local AGN

M. C. Powell, N. Cappelluti, C. M. Urry +9

We characterize the environments of local accreting supermassive black holes by measuring the clustering of AGN in the Swift/BAT Spectroscopic Survey (BASS). With 548 AGN in the re…

Radio Galaxy Zoo: A Search for Hybrid Morphology Radio Galaxies

A. D. Kapinska, I. Terentev, O. I. Wong +14

Hybrid morphology radio sources are a rare type of radio galaxy that display different Fanaroff-Riley classes on opposite sides of their nuclei. To enhance the statistical analysis…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey - V. X-ray properties of the Swift/BAT 70-month AGN catalog

Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael J. Koss +18

Hard X-ray ( keV) observations of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can shed light on some of the most obscured episodes of accretion onto supermassive black holes. The 70-mont…

A New Population of Compton-Thick AGN Identified Using the Spectral Curvature Above 10 keV

Michael J. Koss, R. Assef, M. Balokovic +18

We present a new metric that uses the spectral curvature (SC) above 10 keV to identify Compton-thick AGN in low-quality Swift BAT X-ray data. Using NuSTAR, we observe nine high SC-…

Rest-frame Optical Emission Lines in Far-Infrared Selected Galaxies at z<1.7 from the FMOS-COSMOS Survey

Jeyhan S. Kartaltepe, D. B. Sanders, J. D. Silverman +15

We have used FMOS on Subaru to obtain near-infrared spectroscopy of 123 far-infrared selected galaxies in COSMOS and obtain the key rest-frame optical emission lines. This is the l…

The dominant role of mergers in the size evolution of massive early-type galaxies since z ~ 1

C. López-Sanjuan, O. Le Fèvre, O. Ilbert +60

In this paper we measure the merger fraction and rate, both minor and major, of massive early-type galaxies (M_star >= 10^11 M_Sun) in the COSMOS field, and study their role in mas…
