Spectral Decomposition of Broad-Line AGNs and Host Galaxies [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2005 Using an eigenspectrum decomposition technique, we separate the host galaxy from the broad line active galactic nucleus (AGN) in a set of 4666 spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), from redshifts near zero up to about 0.75.

Star-Forming AGN Host Galaxies [PDF]
New Astronomy Reviews, 2001 The symbiosis of nuclear activity and star-formation in galaxies, as manifested in their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) is reviewed. Attention is drawn to an Hertzsprung-Russell diagram-equivalent for such objects, as well as to the importance of ...

The Connection between Star-Forming Galaxies, AGN Host Galaxies and Early-Type Galaxies in the SDSS [PDF]
, 2007 We present a study of the connection between star-forming galaxies, AGN host galaxies, and normal early-type galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

AGN host galaxy mass function in COSMOS [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2016 We investigate the role of supermassive black holes in the global context of galaxy evolution by measuring the host galaxy stellar mass function (HGMF) and the specific accretion rate i.e., lambda_SAR, distribution function (SARDF) up to z~2.5 with ~1000

, 2001 The relationship of an AGN to its host galaxy is a crucial question in the study of galaxy evolution. We perform stellar population synthesis in the central regions of galaxies of different activity levels. A large number of stellar features are measured both in the optical and near-infrared.

The smallest AGN host galaxies [PDF]
New Astronomy Reviews, 2005 We describe our efforts to study dwarf galaxies with active nuclei, whose black holes, with masses < 10^6 M_sun, provide the best current observational constraints on the mass distribution of primordial seed black holes. Although these low-mass galaxies do not necessarily contain classical bulges, Barth, Greene, & Ho (2005) show that their ...

Constraining the properties of AGN host galaxies with spectral energy distribution modelling [PDF]
, 2015 Detailed studies of the spectral energy distribution (SED) of normal galaxies have increasingly been used to understand the physical mechanism dominating their integrated emission, mainly owing to the availability of high quality multi-wavelength data ...

Multi-wavelength Properties of Type 1 and Type 2 AGN Host Galaxies in the Chandra-COSMOS Legacy Survey [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 We investigate the multi-wavelength properties of host galaxies of 3701 X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) out to z ∼ 5 in the Chandra-COSMOS Legacy Survey.
