The HELLAS2XMM survey: XI. Unveiling the nature of X-ray Bright Optically Normal Galaxies

F. Civano, M. Mignoli, A. Comastri +8

X-ray Bright Optically Normal Galaxies (XBONGs) constitute a small but not negligible fraction of hard X-ray selected sources in recent Chandra and XMM-Newton surveys. Even though…

The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey: Tracing the galaxy stellar mass assembly history over the last 8Gyr

D. Vergani, M. Scodeggio, L. Pozzetti +46

We selected a mass-limited sample of 4048 objects from the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey in the redshift interval 0.5<z<1.3. We used the amplitude of the 4000 Balmer break (Dn4000) to sepa…

The SWIRE-VVDS-CFHTLS surveys: stellar mass assembly over the last 10 Gyears. Evidence for a major build up of the red sequence between z=2 and z=1

S. Arnouts, C. J. Walcher, O. Le Fevre +43

(abridged abstract) We present an analysis of the stellar mass growth over the last 10 Gyrs using a large 3.6 selected sample. We split our sample into active (blue) and quiesce…

The VVDS type-1 AGN sample: The faint end of the luminosity function

A. Bongiorno, G. Zamorani, I. Gavignaud +51

In a previous paper (Gavignaud et al. 2006), we presented the type-1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) sample obtained from the first epoch data of the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The…

The HELLAS2XMM survey. X. The bolometric output of luminous obscured quasars: The Spitzer perspective

F. Pozzi, C. Vignali, A. Comastri +10

Aims: We aim at estimating the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and the physical parameters related to the black holes harbored in eight high X-ray-to-optical (F_X/F_R>10) obsc…

The obscured X-ray source population in the HELLAS2XMM survey: the Spitzer view

C. Vignali, Francesca Pozzi, A. Comastri +9

Recent X-ray surveys have provided a large number of high-luminosity, obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), the so-called Type 2 quasars. Despite the large amount of multi-wavelen…
