The high-redshift (z>3) AGN population in the 4 Ms Chandra Deep Field South

F. Vito, C. Vignali, R. Gilli +10

We present results from a spectral analysis of a sample of high-redshift (z>3) X-ray selected AGN in the 4 Ms Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S), the deepest X-ray survey to date. Th…

Near-Infrared Counterparts to Chandra X-ray Sources toward the Galactic Center. I. Statistics and a Catalog of Candidates

Jon C. Mauerhan, Michael P. Muno, Mark R. Morris +3

We present a catalog of 5184 candidate infrared counterparts to X-ray sources detected towards the Galactic center. The X-ray sample contains 9017 point sources detected in this re…

The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey: Ly-alpha Blobs are powered by heating, not cooling

J. E. Geach, D. M. Alexander, B. D. Lehmer +11

We present the results of a 400ks Chandra survey of 29 extended Ly-alpha emitting nebulae (Ly-alpha Blobs, LABs) in the z=3.09 proto-cluster in the SSA22 field. We detect luminous…

The Growth of Supermassive Black Holes Across Cosmic Time

K. Nandra, J. A. Aird, D. M. Alexander +54

One of the main themes in extragalactic astronomy for the next decade will be the evolution of galaxies over cosmic time. Many future observatories, including JWST, ALMA, GMT, TMT…

The extended X-ray emission around HDF130 at z=1.99: an inverse Compton ghost of a giant radio source in the Chandra Deep Field North

A. C. Fabian, S. Chapman, C. M. Casey +2

One of the six extended X-ray sources found in the Chandra DeepField North is centred on HDF130, which has recently been shown to be a massive galaxy at z=1.99 with a compact radio…

Weighing the Black Holes in z~2 Submillimeter-Emitting Galaxies Hosting Active Galactic Nuclei

D. M. Alexander, W. N. Brandt, I. Smail +7

We place direct observational constraints on the black-hole masses of the cosmologically important z~2 submillimeter-emitting galaxy (SMG; f850>4mJy) population, and use measured h…
