Moderate-Luminosity Growing Black Holes From 1.25 < z < 2.7: Varied Accretion In Disk-Dominated Hosts
Brooke D. Simmons, C. Megan Urry, Kevin Schawinski +2
We compute black hole masses and bolometric luminosities for 57 active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the redshift range 1.25 < z < 2.67, selected from the GOODS-South deep multi-wavelen…
Major Galaxy Mergers Only Trigger the Most Luminous AGN
E. Treister, K. Schawinski, C. M. Urry +1
Using multiwavelength surveys of active galactic nuclei across a wide range of bolometric luminosities (10^{43}<L_{bol}(erg/s<5x10^{46}) and redshifts (0<z<3), we find a strong, re…
Galaxy Zoo: Bulgeless Galaxies With Growing Black Holes
B. D. Simmons, C. Lintott, K. Schawinski +8
The growth of supermassive black holes appears to be driven by galaxy mergers, violent merger-free processes and/or `secular' processes. In order to quantify the effects of secular…
Bolometric luminosities and Eddington ratios of X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei in the XMM-COSMOS survey
E. Lusso, A. Comastri, B. D. Simmons +25
Bolometric luminosities and Eddington ratios of both X-ray selected broad-line (Type-1) and narrow-line (Type-2) AGN from the XMM-Newton survey in the COSMOS field are presented. T…
The Infrared Light Curve of SN 2011fe in M101 and the Distance to M101
T. Matheson, R. R. Joyce, L. E. Allen +42
We present near infra-red light curves of supernova (SN) 2011fe in M101, including 34 epochs in H band starting fourteen days before maximum brightness in the B-band. The light cur…
