Obscured active galactic nuclei

RC Hickox, DM Alexander - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are powered by the accretion of material onto a supermassive
black hole (SMBH) and are among the most luminous objects in the Universe. However, the …

A unified, merger-driven model of the origin of starbursts, quasars, the cosmic X-ray background, supermassive black holes, and galaxy spheroids

PF Hopkins, L Hernquist, TJ Cox… - The Astrophysical …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an evolutionary model for starbursts, quasars, and spheroidal galaxies in which
mergers between gas-rich galaxies drive nuclear inflows of gas, producing starbursts and …

An observational determination of the bolometric quasar luminosity function

PF Hopkins, GT Richards… - The Astrophysical …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We combine a large set of quasar luminosity function (QLF) measurements from the rest-
frame optical, soft and hard X-ray, and near-and mid-IR bands to determine the bolometric …

Obscured and unobscured active galactic nuclei in the spitzer space telescope first look survey

M Lacy, LJ Storrie-Lombardi, A Sajina… - The Astrophysical …, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
Selection of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the infrared facilitates the discovery of AGNs
whose optical emission is extinguished by dust. In this paper, we use the Spitzer Space …

Black holes in galaxy mergers: Evolution of quasars

PF Hopkins, L Hernquist, TJ Cox… - The Astrophysical …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
Based on numerical simulations of gas-rich galaxy mergers, we discuss a model in which
quasar activity is tied to the self-regulated growth of supermassive black holes in galaxies …

Red and reddened quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

GT Richards, PB Hall, DEV Berk… - The Astronomical …, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the overall continuum and emission-line properties of quasars as a function
of their optical/UV spectral energy distributions. Our sample consists of 4576 quasars from …
