Optical Spectral Properties of Swift BAT Hard X-ray Selected Active Galactic Nuclei Sources
Lisa M. Winter, Karen T. Lewis, Michael Koss +3
The Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) survey of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is providing an unprecedented view of local AGNs (<z> = 0.03) and their host galaxy properties. In this…
Optical and X-ray Properties of the Swift BAT-detected AGN
L. Winter, R. Mushotzky, K. Lewis +3
The Swift Gamma-Ray Burst satellite has detected a largely unbiased towards absorption sample of local () AGN, based solely on their 14--195 keV flux. In the firs…
The power output of local obscured and unobscured AGN: crossing the absorption barrier with Swift/BAT and IRAS
R. V. Vasudevan, A. C. Fabian, P. Gandhi +2
The Swift/BAT 9-month catalogue of active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides an unbiased census of local supermassive black hole accretion, and probes to all but the highest levels of…
Optical--to--X-ray emission in low-absorption AGN: Results from the Swift-BAT 9 month catalogue
R. V. Vasudevan, R. F. Mushotzky, L. M. Winter +1
(Abridged) We present simultaneous optical--to--X-ray spectral energy distributions (SEDs) from Swift's X-ray and UV--optical telescopes (XRT and UVOT) for a well-selected sample o…
The OPTX Project II: Hard X-ray Luminosity Functions of Active Galactic Nuclei for z<5
B. Yencho, A. J. Barger, L. Trouille +1
We use the largest, most uniform, and most spectroscopically complete to faint X-ray flux limits Chandra sample to date to construct hard 2-8 keV rest-frame X-ray luminosity functi…
The Suzaku View of the Swift/BAT AGNs (II): Time Variability and Spectra of Five "Hidden" AGNs
Lisa Winter, Richard Mushotzky, Yuichi Terashima +1
The fraction of Compton thick sources is one of the main uncertainties left in understanding the AGN population. The Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) all-sky survey, for the first…
