Buried Black Hole Growth in IR-selected Mergers: New Results from Chandra
Ryan W. Pfeifle, Shobita Satyapal, Nathan J. Secrest +8
Observations and theoretical simulations suggest that a significant fraction of merger-triggered accretion onto supermassive black holes is highly obscured, particularly in late-st…
Buried AGNs in Advanced Mergers:Mid-infrared color selection as a dual AGN finder
Shobita Satyapal, Nathan J. Secrest, Claudio Ricci +7
A direct consequence of hierarchical galaxy formation is the existence of dual supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which may be preferentially triggered as active galactic nuclei (AG…
Discovery of a dual active galactic nucleus with ~ 8 kpc separation
Sara L. Ellison, Nathan J. Secrest, J. Trevor Mendel +2
Targeted searches for dual active galactic nuclei (AGN), with separations 1 -- 10 kpc, have yielded relatively few successes. A recent pilot survey by Satyapal et al. has demonstra…
Searching for luminous absorbed sources in the WISE AGN catalogue
G. Mountrichas, I. Georgantopoulos, N. J. Secrest +6
Mid-IR colour selection techniques have proved to be very efficient in finding AGN. This is because the AGN heats the surrounding dust producing warm mid-IR colours. Using the WISE…
