The Most Obscured AGNs in the XMM-SERVS Fields
Wei Yan, W. N. Brandt, Fan Zou +9
We perform X-ray spectral analyses to derive characteristics (e.g., column density, X-ray luminosity) of 10,200 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the XMM-Spitzer Extragalac…
Chandra Observations of Excess Fe K Line Emission in Galaxies with High Star Formation Rates: X-ray Reflection on Galaxy Scales?
Wei Yan, Ryan C. Hickox, Chien-Ting J. Chen +4
In active galactic nuclei (AGN), fluorescent Fe K (iron) line emission is generally interpreted as originating from obscuring material around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) on…
NuSTAR and Keck Observations of Heavily Obscured Quasars Selected by WISE
Wei Yan, Ryan C. Hickox, Kevin N. Hainline +15
A primary aim of the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) mission is to find and characterize heavily obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). Based on mid-infrared photom…
Characterizing the WISE-selected Heavily Obscured Quasar Population with Optical Spectroscopy from the Southern African Large Telescope
R. E. Hviding, R. C. Hickox, K. N. Hainline +4
We present the results of an optical spectroscopic survey of 46 heavily obscured quasar candidates. Objects are selected using their mid-infrared (mid-IR) colours and magnitudes fr…
Surface brightness profiles of blue compact dwarf galaxies in the GOODS-N and GOODS-S field
Jianhui Lian, Xu Kong, Ning Jiang +2
We investigate the structural properties of the underlying hosts of 34 blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies with deep near-infrared (NIR) photometry. The BCD sample is selected from t…
