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…

Dissecting Photometric redshift for Active Galactic Nuclei using XMM- and Chandra-COSMOS samples

M. Salvato, O. Ilbert, G. Hasinger +61

With this paper, we release accurate photometric redshifts for 1692 counterparts to Chandra sources in the central square degree of the COSMOS field. The availability of a large tr…

The XMM-Newton Wide field survey in the COSMOS field: redshift evolution of AGN bias and subdominant role of mergers in triggering moderate luminosity AGN at redshift up to 2.2

V. Allevato, A. Finoguenov, N. Cappelluti +14

We present a study of the redshift evolution of the projected correlation function of 593 X-ray selected AGN with I_AB<23 and spectroscopic redshifts z<4, extracted from the 0.5-2…

Black hole accretion and host galaxies of obscured quasars in XMM-COSMOS

V. Mainieri, A. Bongiorno, A. Merloni +61

We explore the connection between black hole growth at the center of obscured quasars selected from the XMM-COSMOS survey and the physical properties of their host galaxies. We stu…

The XMM Deep survey in the CDFS I. First results on heavily obscured AGN

A. Comastri, P. Ranalli, K. Iwasawa +25

We present the first results of the spectroscopy of distant, obscured AGN as obtained with the ultra-deep (~3.3 Ms) XMM-Newton survey in the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS). One of…
