1. Introduction Various populations must be sampled to understand AGN unification/evolution. Many serendipitous X-ray sources in the XMM archives. Serendipitous source catalogue ~260000 sources listed (CR in various bands, hardness ratios, etc.) Watson+09
Our Targets Obscured AGNs Low-mass Supermassive BHs ``New type’’: large solid anlge is obscured by geometrically thick absorber New Obscured AGNs in infrared sources Low-mass Supermassive BHs (or Intermediate-mass BHs)

4. Variability Selection of IMBHs SMBHs have grown through mass accretion and merger. Relatively low-mass SMBHs (or IMBHs <2x106Msolar): important class to understand AGN evolution. X-ray variability time scale --- related to BH mass Normalized excess variance (NXS): NXS – MBH correlation (e.g. Zhou+10, Ponti talk)
Selection Criteria Probability that the source is constant < 1×10-5 718 sources in 2XMMi DR3 Not in SFR, SMC, LMC.

Summary 2XMM catalogue: ``Rare’’ AGN population can be found by applying various selection criteria. ``New type’’ AGNs obscured by geometrically thick absorber found by HR-HR selection. New X-IR diagram developed to efficiently classify activities. 4 New Obscured AGNs found We constructed a new sample of IMBH candidates 3 NEW IMBHs and peculiar AGN candidate found.
