Feedback and feeding in the context of galaxy evolution with SPICA: direct characterization of molecular outflows and inflows

E. González-Alfonso, L. Armus, F. J. Carrera +28

A far-infrared observatory such as the {\it SPace Infrared telescope for Cosmology and Astrophysics} ({\it SPICA}), with its unprecedented spectroscopic sensitivity, would unveil t…

Characterisation of AGN from the XMM-Newton Slew Survey

R. L. C. Starling, C. Wildy, K. Wiersema +4

We present optical spectroscopy of candidate AGN pinpointed by a Swift follow-up campaign on unidentified transients in the XMM-Newton Slew Survey, increasing the completeness of t…

X-ray absorption, nuclear infrared emission and dust covering factors of AGN: testing Unification Schemes

S. Mateos, F. J. Carrera, A. Alonso-Herrero +9

We present the distributions of geometrical covering factors of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) dusty tori (f2) using an X-ray selected complete sample of 227 AGN drawn from the Brig…

Submm-bright X-ray absorbed QSOs at z~2: insights into the co-evolution of AGN and star-formation

A. Khan-Ali, F. J. Carrera, M. J. Page +4

We have assembled a sample of 5 X-ray-absorbed and submm-luminous type 1 QSOs at which are simultaneously growing their central black holes through accretion and forming…

Exploring the Active Galactic Nuclei population with extreme X-ray to optical flux ratios (Fx/Fo >50)

R. Della Ceca, F. J. Carrera, A. Caccianiga +8

The cosmic history of the growth of supermassive black holes in galactic centers parallels that of star-formation in the Universe. However, an important fraction of this growth occ…

Discordant optical and X-ray classification of AGN

I. Ordovás-Pascual, S. Mateos, F. J. Carrera +1

To provide insight into the apparent mismatch between the optical and X-ray absorption properties observed in 10-30 % of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), we have conducted a detailed…
