The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: Initial Results and Catalog from the Extended Chandra Deep Field South

J. R. Mullaney, A. Del-Moro, J. Aird +33

We present initial results and the source catalog from the NuSTAR survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (hereafter, ECDFS) - currently the deepest contiguous component of…

The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: Overview and Catalog from the COSMOS Field

F. Civano, R. C. Hickox, S. Puccetti +28

To provide the census of the sources contributing to the X-ray background peak above 10 keV, NuSTAR is performing extragalactic surveys using a three-tier "wedding cake" approach.…

The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: First Direct Measurements of the >10 keV X-Ray Luminosity Function for Active Galactic Nuclei at z>0.1

J. Aird, D. M. Alexander, D. R. Ballantyne +34

We present the first direct measurements of the rest-frame 10-40 keV X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) based on a sample of 94 sources at 0.1 < z <3,…

The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: The Number Counts of Active Galactic Nuclei and the Resolved Fraction of the Cosmic X-ray Background

F. A. Harrison, J. Aird, F. Civano +41

We present the 3-8 keV and 8-24 keV number counts of active galactic nuclei (AGN) identified in the NuSTAR extragalactic surveys. NuSTAR has now resolved 33-39% of the X-ray backgr…

Are Compton-Thick AGN the Missing Link Between Mergers and Black Hole Growth?

Dale D. Kocevski, Murray Brightman, Kirpal Nandra +12

We examine the host morphologies of heavily obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) at to test whether obscured supermassive black hole growth at this epoch is preferentiall…

ALMA and Herschel reveal that X-ray selected AGN and main-sequence galaxies have different star formation rate distributions

J. R. Mullaney, D. M. Alexander, J. Aird +15

Using deep Herschel and ALMA observations, we investigate the star formation rate (SFR) distributions of X-ray selected AGN host galaxies at 0.5<z<1.5 and 1.5<z<4, comparing them t…
