Infrared Number Counts of AGN in the GOODS Fields
E. Treister, C. Megan Urry, the GOODS AGN Team
Using the known numbers and evolution of unobscured AGN, and assuming that there is a large number of corresponding obscured AGN -- as expected if AGN unification is correct -- we…
Exploring the Nature of Weak Chandra Sources near the Galactic Centre
R. M. Bandyopadhyay, K. M. Blundell, Ph. Podsiadlowski +5
We present early results from the first IR imaging of the weak X-ray sources discovered in a recent Chandra survey towards the Galactic Centre. From our VLT observations we will id…
X-rays from the First Massive Black Holes
W. N. Brandt, C. Vignali, D. P. Schneider +7
X-ray studies of high-redshift (z > 4) active galaxies have advanced substantially over the past few years, largely due to results from the new generation of X-ray observatories. A…
On the nature of Extremely Red Objects: the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North Survey results
C. Vignali, D. M. Alexander, F. E. Bauer +4
Understanding the nature of Extremely Red Objects [EROs; (I-K)>=4] is one of the most challenging issues in observational cosmology. Here we report on the X-ray constraints provide…
Exotic sources detected in the 1 Ms Chandra Deep Field North Survey
D. M. Alexander, F. E. Bauer, W. N. Brandt +4
We provide constraints on optically faint (I>=24) X-ray sources, z>6 AGN, Very Red Objects (VROs; I-K>=4), and optically faint radio sources using the 1 Ms Chandra Deep Field North…
High Resolution Radio Imaging of Distant Submillimeter Galaxies
E. A. Richards, F. E. Bauer, A. J. Barger +1
Using a combination of radio and optical imaging at 0.1\arcs to 0.2\arcs resolution with the VLA/MERLIN and HST has led to a breakthrough in our understanding of radio emission fro…
