The eROSITA X-ray luminosity function of active galactic nuclei
W. Roster, J. Buchner, M. Salvato +23
The X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides an observational probe of the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) across cosmic time. With its l…
An Exploratory Analysis of New Large Gaia-informed Quasar Samples in SDSS-V
Shir Aviram, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Tom Dwelly +22
Quasars are luminous objects that provide insights into the physics and evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their accretion flows, galaxy evolution, and even cosmolog…
What's Missing in AGN Feedback? Lessons learnt from Magneticum, IllustrisTNG and Simba
D. T. Mazengo, P. Popesso, I. Marini +20
Accurately balancing gas reservoirs, star formation, and feedback across cosmic time remains a central challenge for galaxy formation models in modern hydrodynamical simulations. W…
AGN radiative feedback as the main regulator of [O III] outflow activity and obscuration in X-ray AGN
Carolina Andonie, Andrea Merloni, Catarina Aydar +12
Large-scale ionised outflows and nuclear obscuration are fundamental manifestations of AGN activity, yet direct observational evidence linking these phenomena remains scarce. We us…
SDSS-V: Revealing a weak accretion state in X-ray selected red quasars
Paloma Guetzoyan, James Aird, Amy L. Rankine +17
Red quasars (rQSOs) have been recognized as a short-lived, early stage in the evolutionary cycle of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), with fundamental differences in their intrinsic pr…
Robust AGN and host-galaxy decomposition in optical spectral fitting
C. Aydar, A. Merloni, G. Zeltyn +24
Unraveling the growth of supermassive black holes and their connection to host galaxies requires disentangling the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) emission from that of the stellar po…
