The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: Initial Results and Catalog from the Extended Chandra Deep Field South

J. R. Mullaney, A. Del-Moro, J. Aird +33

We present initial results and the source catalog from the NuSTAR survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (hereafter, ECDFS) - currently the deepest contiguous component of…

The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: First Direct Measurements of the >10 keV X-Ray Luminosity Function for Active Galactic Nuclei at z>0.1

J. Aird, D. M. Alexander, D. R. Ballantyne +34

We present the first direct measurements of the rest-frame 10-40 keV X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) based on a sample of 94 sources at 0.1 < z <3,…

[O III] and X-ray Properties of a Complete Sample of Hard X-ray Selected AGNs in the Local Universe

Y. Ueda, Y. Hashimoto, K. Ichikawa +11

We study the correlation between the [O III] and X-ray luminosities of local Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), using a complete, hard X-ray ( keV) selected sample in the S…

NuSTAR Reveals Extreme Absorption in z < 0.5 Type 2 Quasars

G. B. Lansbury, P. Gandhi, D. M. Alexander +27

The intrinsic column density (NH) distribution of quasars is poorly known. At the high obscuration end of the quasar population and for redshifts z<1, the X-ray spectra can only be…

Determining the covering factor of Compton-thick active galactic nuclei with NuSTAR

M. Brightman, M. Balokovic, D. Stern +19

The covering factor of Compton-thick obscuring material associated with the torus in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is at present best understood through the fraction of sources exhi…
