Survival of the obscuring torus in the most powerful active galactic nuclei
S. Mateos, F. J. Carrera, X. Barcons +7
Dedicated searches generally find a decreasing fraction of obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with increasing AGN luminosity. This has often been interpreted as evidence for a d…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: Understanding the build-up of supermassive black holes and galaxies at the heyday of the Universe
A. Georgakakis, F. Carrera, G. Lanzuisi +19
Observations in the last decade have provided strong evidence that the growth of supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies is among the most influential processes in gala…
The X-ray luminous galaxies optically classified as star forming are mostly narrow line Seyfert 1s
N. Castelló-Mor, X. Barcons, L. Ballo +3
We aim to characterize the nature of galaxies whose optical emission line diagnostics are consistent with star formation, but whose X-ray properties strongly point towards the pres…
The bolometric luminosity of type 2 AGN from extinction-corrected [OIII]: no evidence for Eddington-limited sources
A. Lamastra, S. Bianchi, G. Matt +3
There have been recent claims that a significant fraction of type 2 AGN accrete close or even above the Eddington limit. In type 2 AGN the bolometric luminosity (L_b) is generally…
Searching for the Missing Baryons in the Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium
X. Barcons
At low redshift (z<2), almost half of the baryons in the Universe are not found in bound structures like galaxies and clusters and therefore most likely reside in a Warm-Hot Interg…
The X-ray and Radio Connection in Low-luminosity Active Nuclei
F. Panessa, X. Barcons, L. Bassani +4
We present the results of the correlation between the nuclear 2-10 keV X-ray and radio (at 2cm, 6cm and 20cm) luminosities for a well defined sample of local Seyfert galaxies. We u…
