AGN X-ray variability in the XMM-COSMOS survey
G. Lanzuisi, G. Ponti, M. Salvato +18
We took advantage of the observations carried out by XMM in the COSMOS field during 3.5 years, to study the long term variability of a large sample of AGN (638 sources), in a wide…
Bolometric luminosity black-hole growth time and slim accretion discs in active galactic nuclei
Hagai Netzer, Benny Trakhtenbrot
We investigate the accretion rate, bolometric luminosity, black hole (BH) growth time and BH spin in a large AGN sample under the assumption that all such objects are powered via t…
The Mean Star-Forming Properties of QSO Host Galaxies
D. J. Rosario, B. Trakhtenbrot, D. Lutz +22
Quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) occur in galaxies in which supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are growing substantially through rapid accretion of gas. Many popular models of the co-evo…
Star formation and black hole growth at z=4.8
Hagai Netzer, Rivay Mor, Benny Trakhtenbrot +2
We report Herschel Spitzer and Wise observations of 44 z=4.8 optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs). This sample contains the highest mass black holes (BHs) at this redsh…
Science with a wide-field UV transient explorer
I. Sagiv, A. Gal-Yam, E. O. Ofek +11
The time-variable electromagnetic sky has been well-explored at a wide range of wavelengths. Numerous high-energy space missions take advantage of the dark Gamma-ray and X-ray sky…
