- Description:
- We explore the mid-infrared (mid-IR) through ultraviolet (UV) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 119652 luminous broad-lined quasars with 0.064<z<5.46 using mid-IR data from Spitzer and WISE, near-infrared data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey and UKIDSS, optical data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, and UV data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer. The mean SED requires a bolometric correction (relative to 2500{AA}) of BC_2500{AA}_=2.75+/-0.40 using the integrated light from 1um-2keV, and we further explore the range of bolometric corrections exhibited by individual objects. In addition, we investigate the dependence of the mean SED on various parameters, particularly the UV luminosity for quasars with 0.5<~z<~3 and the properties of the UV emission lines for quasars with z>~1.6; the latter is a possible indicator of the strength of the accretion disk wind, which is expected to be SED-dependent.

- Description:
- We have conducted a detailed investigation of the broadband spectral properties of the {gamma}-ray selected blazars of the Fermi LAT Bright AGN Sample (LBAS, Cat. J/ApJ/700/597). By combining our accurately estimated Fermi {gamma}-ray spectra with Swift, radio, infra-red, optical, and other hard X-ray/{gamma}-ray data, collected within 3 months of the LBAS data taking period, we were able to assemble high-quality and quasi-simultaneous spectral energy distributions (SED) for 48 LBAS blazars. We have used these SED to characterize the peak intensity of both the low- and the high-energy components. The results have been used to derive empirical relationships that estimate the position of the two peaks from the broadband colors (i.e., the radio to optical, {alpha}_ro_, and optical to X-ray, {alpha}_ox_, spectral slopes) and from the {gamma}-ray spectral index. While more than 50% of known radio bright high energy peaked (HBL) BL Lacs are detected in the LBAS sample, only less than 13% of known bright broad-lined flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) and LBL BL Lacs are included. This suggests that the latter sources, as a class, may be much fainter {gamma}-ray emitters than LBAS blazars, and could in fact radiate close to the expectations of simple synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) models. We categorized all our sources according to a new physical classification scheme based on the generally accepted paradigm for Active Galactic Nuclei and on the results of this SED study.

- SED of hard X-ray selected AGN in XMDS
- Short Name:

- Date:

- CDS
- Description:
- We present the SEDs of a hard X-ray selected sample containing 136 sources with F(2-10)keV>10^-14^erg/cm^2^/s; 132 are AGNs. The sources are detected in a 1deg^2^ area of the XMM-Newton Medium Deep Survey where optical data from the VVDS and CFHTLS and infrared data from the SWIRE survey are available. Based on a SED fitting technique we derive photometric redshifts with {sigma}(1+z)=0.11 and 6% of outliers and identify AGN signatures in 83% of the objects. This fraction is higher than derived when a spectroscopic classification is available. The remaining 17% of AGNs show star-forming galaxy SEDs (SF class).

- Description:
- We complied the optical, X-ray, and {gamma}-ray data for 54 Fermi blazars and studied the relationship between the broadband spectral index {alpha}_ox_ and {alpha}_x{gamma}_, as well as the relationship between the intrinsic composite spectral indices {alpha}_xox_ and {alpha}_{gamma}x{gamma}_ for this sample. The relationship between {alpha}_xox_ and {alpha}_{gamma}x{gamma}_ reveals that flat spectrum radio quasars and low-energy peaked BL Lacertae follow a continuous trend, which is consistent with previous results, whereas high-energy peaked BL Lacertae follow a separate distinct trend. Even so, a unified scheme is also revealed from {alpha}_xox_-{alpha}_{gamma}x{gamma}_ diagram when all three subclasses of blazars are considered.

- Description:
- The detection of X-ray emission constitutes a reliable and efficient tool for the selection of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), although it may be biased against the most heavily absorbed AGNs. Simple mid-infrared (IR) broad-band selection criteria identify a large number of luminous and absorbed AGNs, yet again host contamination could lead to non-uniform and incomplete samples. Spectral energy distribution (SED) decomposition is able to decouple the emission from the AGN versus that from star-forming regions, revealing weaker AGN components. We aim to identify the obscured AGN population in the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey in the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey W1 field through SED modelling. We construct SEDs for 6860 sources and identify 160 AGNs at a high confidence level using a Bayesian approach. Using optical spectroscopy, we confirm the nature of ~85 per cent of the AGNs. Our AGN sample is highly complete (~92 per cent) compared to mid-IR colour-selected AGNs, including a significant number of galaxy-dominated systems with lower luminosities. In addition to the lack of X-ray emission (80 per cent), the SED fitting results suggest that the majority of the sources are obscured. We use a number of diagnostic criteria in the optical, IR, and X-ray regimes to verify these results. Interestingly, only 35 per cent of the most luminous mid-IR-selected AGNs have X-ray counterparts suggesting strong absorption. Our work emphasizes the importance of using SED decomposition techniques to select a population of type II AGNs, which may remain undetected by either X-ray or IR colour surveys.

- Description:
- We present results from a study of AGNs and their host galaxies found in low-redshift galaxy clusters. We fit model spectral energy distributions (SEDs) to the combined visible and mid-infrared (MIR) photometry of cluster members and use these model SEDs to determine stellar masses and star formation rates (SFRs). We identify two populations of AGNs, the first based on their X-ray luminosities (X-ray AGNs) and the second based on the presence of a significant AGN component in their model SEDs (IR AGNs). We find that the two AGN populations are nearly disjoint; only 8 out of 44 AGNs are identified with both techniques.

- Description:
- The "Cosmic Evolution Survey" (COSMOS) enables the study of the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) because of the deep coverage and rich sampling of frequencies from X-ray to radio. Here we present an SED catalog of 413 X-ray (XMM-Newton)-selected type 1 (emission line FWHM>2000km/s) AGNs with Magellan, SDSS, or VLT spectrum. The SEDs are corrected for Galactic extinction, broad emission line contributions, constrained variability, and host galaxy contribution. We present the mean SED and the dispersion SEDs after the above corrections in the rest-frame 1.4GHz to 40keV, and show examples of the variety of SEDs encountered. In the near-infrared to optical (rest frame ~8{mu}m-4000{AA}), the photometry is complete for the whole sample and the mean SED is derived from detections only. Reddening and host galaxy contamination could account for a large fraction of the observed SED variety.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present a compilation of spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 35 weak active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in low-ionization nuclear emission regions (LINERs) using recent data from the published literature. We make use of previously published compilations of data, after complementing and extending them with more recent data. The main improvement in the recent data is afforded by high-spatial-resolution observations with the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and high spatial resolution radio observations utilizing a number of facilities. In addition, a considerable number of objects have been observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the near-IR through near-UV bands since the earlier compilations were published. The data include upper limits resulting from either non-detections or observations at low spatial resolution that do not isolate the AGN. For the sake of completeness, we also compute and present a number of quantities from the data, such as optical-to-X-ray spectral indices ({alpha}_ox_), bolometric corrections, bolometric luminosities, Eddington ratios, and the average SED. We anticipate that these data will be useful for a number of applications. In a companion paper, we use a subset of these data ourselves to assess the energy budgets of LINERs.

- Description:
- The Serendipitous Extragalactic X-Ray Source Identification (SEXSI) program is designed to extend greatly the sample of identified extragalactic hard X-ray (2-10keV) sources at intermediate fluxes (~10^-13^ to 10^-15^erg/cm^2^/s). SEXSI, which studies sources selected from more than 2deg^2^, provides an essential complement to the Chandra Deep Fields, which reach depths of 5x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s (2-10keV) but over a total area of less than 0.2deg^2^. In this paper we describe the characteristics of the survey and our X-ray data analysis methodology. We present the cumulative flux distribution for the X-ray sample of 1034 hard sources and discuss the distribution of spectral hardness ratios. Our logN-logS in this intermediate flux range connects to those found in the Deep Fields, and by combining the data sets, we constrain the hard X-ray population over the flux range in which the differential number counts change slope and from which the bulk of the 2-10keV X-ray background arises. We further investigate the logN-logS distribution separately for soft and hard sources in our sample, finding that while a clear change in slope is seen for the softer sample, the hardest sources are well described by a single power law down to the faintest fluxes, consistent with the notion that they lie at lower average redshift.
