A Novel Method to Identify AGNs Based on Emission Line Excess and the Nature of Low-luminosity AGNs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: II - Nature of Low-luminosity AGNs

open access: yes, 2012
We develop a novel method to identify active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and study the nature of low-luminosity AGNs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This is the second part of a series of papers and we study the correlations between the AGN activities and ...

Clustering, host galaxies, and evolution of AGN

open access: yes, 2009
We explore the connection between different classes of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and the evolution of their host galaxies, by deriving host galaxy properties, clustering, and Eddington ratios of AGNs selected in the radio, X-ray, and infrared (IR) wavebands from the wide-field (9 deg^2) Bootes survey.

Discrepancies between JWST Observations and Simulations of Quenched Massive Galaxies at z > 3: A Comparative Study with IllustrisTNG and ASTRID

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recent JWST observations have uncovered an unexpectedly large population of massive quiescent galaxies at z  > 3. Using the cosmological simulations IllustrisTNG and ASTRID , we identify analogous galaxies and investigate their abundance, formation ...

Dust-Corrected Colors Reveal Bimodality in AGN Host Galaxy Colors at z~1

open access: yes, 2010
Using new, highly accurate photometric redshifts from the MUSYC medium-band survey in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDF-S), we fit synthetic stellar population models to compare AGN host galaxies to inactive galaxies at 0.8 < z < 1.2.

The bulk of the black hole growth since z ~ 1 occurs in a secular universe: no major merger-AGN connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
What is the relevance of major mergers and interactions as triggering mechanisms for active galactic nuclei (AGNs) activity? To answer this long-standing question, we analyze 140 XMM-Newton-selected AGN host galaxies and a matched control sample of ...

PEARLS: Discovery of Point-source Features within Galaxies in the North Ecliptic Pole Time Domain Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The first public 0.9–4.4 μ m NIRCam images of the North Ecliptic Pole Time Domain Field uncovered galaxies displaying point-source features in their cores as seen in the longer-wavelength filters. We visually identified a sample of 66 galaxies (∼1 galaxy
