Discovery of an X - ray selected radio - loud obscured AGN at z = 1 . 246
نویسنده
چکیده
We have discovered an obscured active galaxy at redshift z = 1.246 identified with the ROSAT X-ray source RX J1011.2+5545. We report on multiwavelength observations of this source and discuss its X-ray, optical and radio properties. This is the first X-ray selected, obscured active galaxy at high redshift to be shown to be radio-loud, with a radio counterpart exhibiting a classical double-lobe morphology.

AN X-RAY–SELECTED ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEUS AT z = 4.6 DISCOVERED BY THE CYDER SURVEY
We present the discovery of a high-redshift, X-ray–selected active galactic nucleus (AGN) by the Calan-Yale Deep Extragalactic Research (CYDER) survey: CXOCY J033716.7 050153, located at z 1⁄4 4:61, the second high-redshift AGN discovered by this survey. Here we present its optical, near-IR, and X-ray properties and compare it with other optical and X-ray–selected high-redshift AGNs. The optica...
متن کاملDetecting Obscured AGN in the Distant Universe with
We present the results of a Spitzer search for obscured AGN in the Chandra Deep Field-North, using both radio-excess and mid-infrared power-law selection. AGN selected via the former technique tend to lie at z ∼ 1, have SEDs dominated by the 1.6 μm stellar bump, and have Seyfert-like X-ray luminosities (when detected in the X-ray). In contrast, the IRAC (3.6-8.0 μm) power-law selected AGN lie a...
متن کاملExploring X - ray and radio emission of type 1 AGN up to z ∼ 2 . 3
Context. X-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is dominated by the accretion disk around a supermassive black hole. The radio luminosity, however, has not such a clear origin except in the most powerful sources where jets are evident. The origin (and even the very existence) of the local bi-modal distribution in radio-loudness is also a debated issue. Aims. By analysing X-ray, optica...

متن کاملThe Contribution of Active Galactic Nuclei to the Microjansky Radio Population
A X-ray background synthesis model is used to calculate the contribution of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) to the 1.4 GHz number counts between 100 nJy and 10 mJy. The number counts are broken down into contributions from radioquiet and radio-loud AGNs, obscured and unobscured AGNs, and for different ranges in redshift and 2–10 keV X-ray luminosity, LX . Compton-thick AGNs are included, but only...
