CEERS Key Paper. II. A First Look at the Resolved Host Properties of AGN at 3 < z < 5 with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report on the host properties of five X-ray-luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) identified at 3 < z < 5 in the first epoch of imaging from the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science Survey.

Low-luminosity AGN and Normal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Low-luminosity AGN (with X-ray luminosity < 1e42 ergs/s) far outnumber ordinary AGN, and are therefore perhaps more relevant to our understanding of AGN phenomena and the relationship between AGN and host galaxies.

Typical AGN at intermediate redshifts

open access: yes, 2008
We study the host galaxies and black holes of typical X-ray selected AGN at intermediate redshifts (z~0.5-1.4). The AGN are selected such that their spectral energy distributions are dominated by stellar emission, i.e., they show a prominent 1.6micron ...

The clustering of X-ray AGN at 0.5 < z < 4.5: host galaxies dictate dark matter halo mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We present evidence that AGN do not reside in ``special'' environments, but instead show large-scale clustering determined by the properties of their host galaxies. Our study is based on an angular cross-correlation analysis applied to X-ray selected AGN

PRIMUS: The relationship between Star formation and AGN accretion

open access: yes, 2015
We study the evidence for a connection between active galactic nuclei (AGN) fueling and star formation by investigating the relationship between the X-ray luminosities of AGN and the star formation rates (SFRs) of their host galaxies.

Image decomposition of barred galaxies and AGN hosts [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008
I present the results of multi-component decomposition of V and R broadband images of a sample of 17 nearby galaxies, most of them hosting bars and active galactic nuclei. I use BUDDA v2.1 to produce the fits, allowing to include bars and AGN in the models. A comparison with previous results from the literature shows a fairly good agreement.

Active Galactic Nuclei in the Green Valley at z ∼ 0.7

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy using the MMT and Magellan infrared spectrograph for a sample of 29 massive galaxies ( $\mathrm{log}\ {M}_{* }/{M}_{\odot }\gtrsim 10$ ) at z ∼ 0.7 with optical spectroscopy from the Large Early Galaxy ...

Pair-Matching of Radio-Loud and Radio-Quiet AGNs

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are known to cover an extremely broad range of radio luminosities and the spread of their radio-loudness is very large at any value of the Eddington ratio.

Host galaxy colour gradients and accretion disc obscuration in AEGIS z~1 X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei

open access: yes, 2010
We describe the effect of AGN light on host galaxy optical and UV-optical colours, as determined from X-ray-selected AGN host galaxies at z~1, and compare the AGN host galaxy colours to those of a control sample matched to the AGN sample in both redshift

The Host Galaxies of Tidal Disruption Events [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2020
Recent studies of Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) have revealed unexpected correlations between the TDE rate and the large-scale properties of the host galaxies. In this review, we present the host galaxy properties of all TDE candidates known to date and
