Herschel and Galaxies/agn
نویسنده
چکیده
Herschel will represent a breakthrough in the study of nearby gas-rich and gas-poor galaxies, as it will for the first time permit imaging photometric and spectroscopic observations of their ISM in the FIRsubmm wavelength range. The unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution of Herschel will furthermore yield a breakthrough in our understanding of distant galaxies and AGN, as their gas and dust – both the ISMand the AGN-related – will for the first time come within reach. Herschel will undoubtedly yield major discoveries concerning the cosmologically evolving gas and dust properties in galaxies, back to very early epochs.

AGN Zoo and Classications of Active Galaxies
We review the variety of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) classes (so-calledAGN zoo") and classification schemes of galaxies by activity types based on their optical emission-line spectrum, as well as other parameters and other than optical wave-length ranges. A historical overview of discoveries of various types of active galaxies is given, including Seyfert galaxies, radio galaxies, QSOs, BL Lace...
متن کاملHidden starbursts and active galactic nuclei at 0 < z < 4 from the Herschel ⋆ - VVDS - CFHTLS - D 1 field : Inferences on coevolution and feedback ⋆ ⋆
We investigate of the properties of ∼2000 Herschel/SPIRE far-infrared-selected galaxies from 0 < z < 4 in the CFHTLS-D1 field. Using a combination of extensive spectroscopy from the VVDS and ORELSE surveys, deep multiwavelength imaging from CFHT, VLA, Spitzer, XMM-Newton, and Herschel, and well-calibrated spectral energy distribution fitting, Herschel-bright galaxies are compared to optically-s...
متن کاملHerschel-ATLAS:The connection between star formation and AGN activity in radio-loud and radio-quiet active galaxies
We examine the relationship between star formation and AGN activity by constructing matched samples of local (0 < z < 0.6) radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN in the HerschelATLAS fields. Radio-loud AGN are classified as high-excitation and low-excitation radio galaxies (HERGs, LERGs) using their emission lines and WISE 22-μm luminosity. AGN accretion and jet powers in these active galaxies are trac...
متن کاملTHE RELATION BETWEEN LUMINOUS AGNs AND STAR FORMATION IN THEIR HOST GALAXIES
We study the relation of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to star formation in their host galaxies. Our sample includes 205 Type-1 and 85 Type-2 AGNs, 162 detected with Herschel, from fields surrounding 30 galaxy clusters in the Local Cluster Substructure Survey. The sample is identified by optical line widths and ratios after selection to be brighter than 1 mJy at 24 μm. We show that Type-2 AGN [...
متن کاملPanchromatic Spectral Energy Distributions of Dusty Galaxies with Radishe. I. Predictions for Herschel: Correlating Colors with Galactic Energy Sources
We present three-dimensional, self-consistent radiative transfer solutions with a new Monte Carlo radiative equilibrium code. The code, RADISHE (RADiative transfer In Smoothed particle Hydrodynamics and Eulerian codes), can be applied to calculate the emergent spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and broadband images from optical to millimeter wavelengths of arbitrary density geometries with di...
