The link among X-ray spectral properties, AGN structure and the host galaxy

G. Mountrichas, A. Viitanen, F. J. Carrera +5

In this work, we compare the SMBH and host galaxy properties of X-ray obscured and unobscured AGN. For that purpose, we use X-ray detected AGN in the 4XMM-DR11 catalo…

XMM2ATHENA, the H2020 project to improve XMM-Newton analysis software and prepare for Athena

Natalie A. Webb, Francisco J. Carrera, Axel Schwope +31

XMM-Newton, a European Space Agency observatory, has been observing the X-ray, ultra-violet and optical sky for 23 years. During this time, astronomy has evolved from mainly studyi…

White Paper on MAAT@GTC

Francisco Prada, Robert Content, Ariel Goobar +41

MAAT is proposed as a visitor mirror-slicer optical system that will allow the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m Gran telescopio CANARIAS (GTC) the capability to perform Integral F…

XMMPZCAT: A catalogue of photometric redshifts for X-ray sources

A. Ruiz, A. Corral, G. Mountrichas +1

The third version of the XMM-Newton serendipitous catalogue (3XMM), containing almost half million sources, is now the largest X-ray catalogue. However, its full scientific potenti…

Estimating Photometric Redshifts for X-ray sources in the X-ATLAS field, using machine-learning techniques

G. Mountrichas, A. Corral, V. A. Masoura +5

We present photometric redshifts for 1,031 X-ray sources in the X-ATLAS field, using the machine learning technique TPZ (Carrasco Kind & Brunner 2013). X-ATLAS covers 7.1 deg2 obse…

Searching for luminous absorbed sources in the WISE AGN catalogue

G. Mountrichas, I. Georgantopoulos, N. J. Secrest +6

Mid-IR colour selection techniques have proved to be very efficient in finding AGN. This is because the AGN heats the surrounding dust producing warm mid-IR colours. Using the WISE…
