The Lick AGN Monitoring Project 2011: Fe II Reverberation from the Outer Broad-Line Region
Aaron J. Barth, Anna Pancoast, Vardha N. Bennert +26
The prominent broad Fe II emission blends in the spectra of active galactic nuclei have been shown to vary in response to continuum variations, but past attempts to measure the rev…
A redline starburst: CO(2-1) observations of an Eddington-limited galaxy reveal star formation at its most extreme
J. E. Geach, R. C. Hickox, A. M. Diamond-Stanic +6
We report observations of the CO(2-1) emission of SDSSJ1506+54, a compact (r_e~135pc) starburst galaxy at z=0.6. SDSSJ1506+54 appears to be forming stars close to the limit allowed…
PRIMUS: Infrared and X-ray AGN Selection Techniques at 0.2<z<1.2
Alexander J. Mendez, Alison L. Coil, James Aird +7
We present a study of Spitzer/IRAC and X-ray active galactic nuclei (AGNs) selection techniques in order to quantify the overlap, uniqueness, contamination, and completeness of eac…
Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies. III. Co-evolution of Black Hole Growth and Star Formation Activity?
Almudena Alonso-Herrero, Miguel Pereira-Santaella, George H. Rieke +4
Local luminous infrared (IR) galaxies (LIRGs) have both high star formation rates (SFR) and a high AGN (Seyfert and AGN/starburst composite) incidence. Therefore, they are ideal ca…
PRIMUS: An observationally motivated model to connect the evolution of the AGN and galaxy populations out to z~1
James Aird, Alison L. Coil, John Moustakas +6
We present an observationally motivated model to connect the AGN and galaxy populations at 0.2<z<1.0 and predict the AGN X-ray luminosity function (XLF). We start with measurements…
The Properties of Post-Starburst Quasars Based on Optical Spectroscopy
Sabrina L. Cales, Michael S. Brotherton, Zhaohui Shang +8
We present optical spectroscopy of a sample of 38 post-starburst quasars (PSQs) at z ~ 0.3, 29 of which have morphological classifications based on Hubble Space Telescope imaging.…
