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…

Galaxy Zoo: The Environmental Dependence of Bars and Bulges in Disc Galaxies

Ramin A. Skibba, Karen L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +8

We present an analysis of the environmental dependence of bars and bulges in disc galaxies, using a volume-limited catalogue of 15810 galaxies at z<0.06 from the Sloan Digital Sky…

Radio Detection of Green Peas: Implications for Magnetic Fields in Young Galaxies

Sayan Chakraborti, Naveen Yadav, Carolin Cardamone +1

Green Peas are a new class of young, emission line galaxies that were discovered by citizen volunteers in the Galaxy Zoo project. Their low stellar mass, low metallicity and very h…

HST WFC3/IR Observations of Active Galactic Nucleus Host Galaxies at z~2: Supermassive Black Holes Grow in Disk Galaxies

Kevin Schawinski, Ezequiel Treister, C. Megan Urry +3

We present the rest-frame optical morphologies of active galactic nucleus (AGN) host galaxies at 1.5<z<3, using near-infrared imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Cam…

Panchromatic Estimation of Star Formation Rates in BzK Galaxies at 1<z<3

Peter Kurczynski, Eric Gawiser, Minh Huynh +9

We determine star formation rates (SFRs) in a sample of color-selected, star-forming (sBzK) galaxies (K(AB)<21.8) in the Extended Chandra Deep Field - South. To identify and avoid…

Dust-Corrected Colors Reveal Bimodality in AGN Host Galaxy Colors at z~1

Carolin N. Cardamone, C. Megan Urry, Kevin Schawinski +3

Using new, highly accurate photometric redshifts from the MUSYC medium-band survey in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDF-S), we fit synthetic stellar population models to…
