1 Astro 641 AGN Mapping the Evolution of AGN More material: This lecture!

2 3C Radio Survey Third (revised) Cambridge Catalogue of radio sources using extended emission at 178 MHz. Low selection frequency: steep spectra Survey of all sources north of -5 deg with f R >9 Jy. 328 sources. Complete sample: Laing, Riley and Longair (1983). 96% complete to 10 Jy.

3 V/V max Test

4 Flux-limited sample --> at small distances larger luminosity range. Solution: compute for each source the max. redshift at which it would still be included in a complete survey --> maximum volume V max. V/V max is a measure of the source position within the observable volume. V/Vmax uniform in [0,1] range. =0.5.

21 AGN Contribution to IR Background Treister et al. (2006)

22 Fiore et al. 2008 Finding Heavily-Obscured AGN Mid-IR X-ray Stacking F 24 /F R >1000 F 24 /F R <200 4  detection in X-ray stack. Hard spectral shape, harder than X- ray detected sources.  Good CT AGN candidates. Similar results found by Daddi et al. (2007)

23 Rest-Frame Stacking Good fit with either NH  10 23 cm -2 or combination of CT AGN with star-forming galaxies. Consistent results with observed-frame stacking. Treister et al. ApJ 2009c

24 X-Ray to Mid-IR Ratio ~100x lower ratio for X-ray undetected sources. Explained by N H ~5x10 24 to 10 25 cm -2 Treister et al. ApJ 2009c Both X-rays and 12µm good tracers of AGN activity.

25 X-Ray to Mid-IR Ratio Ratio for sources with L 12µm >10 43 erg/s (~80% of the sources) ~2-3x higher than star-forming galaxies Treister et al. ApJ 2009c

26 Near to Mid-IR Colors - Distributions significantly different - X-ray detected sources much bluer - Average f 8 /f 24 =0.2 for X-ray sources and 0.04 for X-ray undetected sample BluerRedder Well explained by different viewing angle (30 o vs 90 o ) in the same torus model Can it be star-formation versus AGN? Treister et al. ApJ 2009c

27 Near to Mid-IR Colors Armus et al. 2007 ULIRG, LINER ULIRG, Sey2
