The XMM Deep Survey in the CDFS
A. Comastri, K. Iwasawa, C. Vignali +3
The Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S) was observed by XMM-Newton for a total of about 3 Ms in many periods over the past decade (2001-2002 and 2008-2009). The main goal of the surve…
X-ray selection of Compton Thick AGN at high redshift
G. Lanzuisi
Compton Thick (CT) AGN are a key ingredient of Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB) synthesis models, but are still an elusive component of the AGN population beyond the local Universe. M…
The Chandra COSMOS Legacy Survey: Clustering of X-ray selected AGN at 2.9<z<5.5 using photometric redshift Probability Distribution Functions
V. Allevato, F. Civano, A. Finoguenov +16
We present the measurement of the projected and redshift space 2-point correlation function (2pcf) of the new catalog of Chandra COSMOS-Legacy AGN at 2.9z5.5 ($\langle…
Compton Thick AGN in the 70 Month Swift-BAT All-Sky Hard X-ray Survey: a Bayesian approach
A. Akylas, I. Georgantopoulos, P. Ranalli +3
The 70-month Swift/BAT catalogue provides a sensitive view of the extragalactic X-ray sky at hard energies (>10 keV) containing about 800 Active Galactic Nuclei. We explore its con…
The Chandra COSMOS-Legacy survey: Source X-ray spectral properties
S. Marchesi, G. Lanzuisi, F. Civano +14
We present the X-ray spectral analysis of the 1855 extragalactic sources in the Chandra COSMOS-Legacy survey catalog having more than 30 net counts in the 0.5-7 keV band. 38% of th…
The Chandra COSMOS Legacy survey: the z>3 sample
S. Marchesi, F. Civano, M. Salvato +17
We present the largest high-redshift (3<z<6.85) sample of X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) on a contiguous field, using sources detected in the Chandra COSMOS Legacy sur…
Tracing outflows in the AGN forbidden region with SINFONI
D. Kakkad, V. Mainieri, P. Padovani +8
AGN driven outflows are invoked in numerical simulations to reproduce several observed properties of local galaxies. The z > 1 epoch is of particular interest as it was during this…
XMM-Newton reveals a Seyfert-like X-ray spectrum in the z=3.6 QSO B1422+231
M. Dadina, C. Vignali, M. Cappi +5
Matter flows in the central regions of quasars during their active phases are probably responsible for the properties of the super-massive black holes and that of the bulges of hos…
X-ray observations of dust obscured galaxies in the Chandra Deep Field South
A. Corral, I. Georgantopoulos, A. Comastri +6
We present the properties of X-ray detected dust obscured galaxies (DOGs) in the Chandra Deep Field South. In recent years, it has been proposed that a significant percentage of th…
NuSTAR reveals the extreme properties of the super-Eddington accreting SMBH in PG 1247+267
G. Lanzuisi, M. Perna, A. Comastri +26
PG1247+267 is one of the most luminous known quasars at and is a strongly super-Eddington accreting SMBH candidate. We obtained NuSTAR data of this intriguing source in De…
A fast ionised wind in a Star Forming-Quasar system at z~1.5 resolved through Adaptive Optics assisted near-infrared data
M. Brusa, M. Perna, G. Cresci +15
Outflows are invoked in co-evolutionary models to link the growth of SMBH and galaxies through feedback phenomena, and from the analysis of both galaxies and Active Galactic Nuclei…
The Chandra COSMOS Legacy survey: overview and point source catalog
F. Civano, S. Marchesi, A. Comastri +39
The COSMOS-Legacy survey is a 4.6 Ms Chandra program that has imaged 2.2 deg of the COSMOS field with an effective exposure of 160 ks over the central 1.5 deg and o…
