The spatial clustering of X-ray selected AGN and galaxies in the Chandra Deep Field South and North

R. Gilli, E. Daddi, G. Zamorani +10

We investigate the spatial clustering of X-ray selected sources in the two deepest X-ray fields to date, namely the 2Msec Chandra Deep Field North (CDFN) and the 1Msec Chandra Deep…

Local Supermassive Black Holes and Relics of Active Galactic Nuclei

A. Marconi, G. Risaliti, R. Gilli +3

We summarize a study where we test the hypothesis that local black holes (BH) are relics of AGN activity. We compare the mass function of BHs in the local universe with that expect…

Photometric Redshift of X-Ray Sources in the Chandra Deep Field South

W. Zheng, V. J. Mikles, V. Mainieri +10

Based on the photometry of 10 near-UV, optical, and near-infrared bands of the Chandra Deep Field South, we estimate the photometric redshifts for 342 X-ray sources, which constitu…

24 micron Properties of X-ray Selected AGN

J. R. Rigby, G. H. Rieke, R. Maiolino +13

We examine the 24 micron to X-ray color of 157 X-ray--selected AGN as a function of X-ray obscuration and optical classification in the Chandra Deep Field South. The sample consist…

The X-Ray Derived Cosmological Star Formation History and the Galaxy X-Ray Luminosity Functions in the Chandra Deep Fields North and South

Colin Norman, Andrew Ptak, Ann Hornschemeier +15

The cosmological star formation rate in the combined Chandra Deep Fields North and South is derived from our X-Ray Luminosity Function for Galaxies in these Deep Fields. Mild evolu…

Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium in the Sculptor Supercluster

L. Zappacosta, R. Maiolino, F. Mannucci +2

We have analyzed the soft X-ray emission in a wide area of the Sculptor supercluster by using overlapping ROSAT PSPC pointings. After subtraction of the point sources we have found…
