BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey - V. X-ray properties of the Swift/BAT 70-month AGN catalog

Claudio Ricci, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael J. Koss +18

Hard X-ray ( keV) observations of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can shed light on some of the most obscured episodes of accretion onto supermassive black holes. The 70-mont…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey I: Spectral Measurements, Derived Quantities, and AGN Demographics

Michael Koss, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Claudio Ricci +20

We present the first catalog and data release of the Swift-BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey (BASS). We analyze optical spectra of the majority of AGN (77%, 641/836) detected based on t…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey-III. An observed link between AGN Eddington ratio and narrow emission line ratios

Kyuseok Oh, Kevin Schawinski, Michael Koss +14

We investigate the observed relationship between black hole mass (), bolometric luminosity (), and Eddington ratio () with optical emission li…

Determining the radio AGN contribution to the radio-FIR correlation using the black hole fundamental plane relation

O. Ivy Wong, M. J. Koss, K. Schawinski +5

We investigate the 1.4 GHz radio properties of 92 nearby (z<0.05) ultra hard X-ray selected Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) sample. Through…

[O III] and X-ray Properties of a Complete Sample of Hard X-ray Selected AGNs in the Local Universe

Y. Ueda, Y. Hashimoto, K. Ichikawa +11

We study the correlation between the [O III] and X-ray luminosities of local Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), using a complete, hard X-ray ( keV) selected sample in the S…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey II: X-ray Emission and High Ionization Optical Emission Lines

Simon Berney, Michael Koss, Benny Trakhtenbrot +17

We investigate the relationship between X-ray and optical line emission in 340 nearby AGN selected above 10 keV using Swift BAT. We find a weak correlation between the extinction c…
