Probing the roles of orientation and multiscale gas distributions in shaping the obscuration of active galactic nuclei through cosmic time (2023)
Journal Article
Alonso-Tetilla, A. V., Shankar, F., Fontanot, F., Menci, N., Valentini, M., Buchner, J., …Ramos Almeida, C. (2024). Probing the roles of orientation and multiscale gas distributions in shaping the obscuration of active galactic nuclei through cosmic time. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 527(4), 10878-10896. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad3265

The origin of obscuration in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still an open debate. In particular, it is unclear what drives the relative contributions to the line-of-sight column densities from galaxy-scale and torus-linked obscuration. The latter s...

The miniJPAS survey: AGN and host galaxy coevolution of X-ray-selected sources (2023)
Journal Article
López, I. E., Brusa, M., Bonoli, S., Shankar, F., Acharya, N., Laloux, B., …Ramió, H. V. (2023). The miniJPAS survey: AGN and host galaxy coevolution of X-ray-selected sources. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 672, 1-20. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202245168

Studies indicate strong evidence of a scaling relation in the local Universe between the supermassive black hole mass (MBH) and the stellar mass of their host galaxies (M⋆). They even show similar histories across cosmic times of their differential t... Read More about The miniJPAS survey: AGN and host galaxy coevolution of X-ray-selected sources.
