S. Haemmerich, A. Gokus, F. McBride +28
Aims. eROSITA, on board the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft, performed its first X-ray all-sky survey (eRASS1) between December 2019 and June 2020. It detected about 93000…
BLAZ4R and the eROSITA view of z>4 blazars
Tullia Sbarrato, Silvia Belladitta, Julien Wolf +8
We present BLAZ4R, the first living catalog of confirmed blazars, with a focus on the contribution of eROSITA, on board of the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft. Blaza…
Counterpart identification and classification for eRASS1 and characterisation of the AGN content
M. Salvato, J. Wolf, T. Dwelly +44
[abridged] Accurately accounting for the AGN phase in galaxy evolution requires a large, clean AGN sample. This is now possible with SRG/eROSITA. The public Data Release 1 (DR1, Ja…
The eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS): SDSS spectroscopic observations of X-ray sources
Catarina Aydar, Andrea Merloni, Tom Dwelly +45
We present one of the largest uniform optical spectroscopic surveys of X-ray selected sources to date that were observed as a pilot study for the Black Hole Mapper (BHM) survey. Th…
