We study properties of the host galaxies of 15 hard X-ray selected type-2 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at intermediate redshifts (0.05$<z<$0.6) detected in $ASCA$ surveys. The absorption corrected hard X-ray luminosities $L_{rm 2-10 keV}$ range from 10$^{42}$ erg s$^{-1}$ to $10^{45}$ erg s$^{-1}$. We took the $R$-band image of these AGNs with the University of Hawaii 2.2 m telescope. Thanks to the intrinsic obscuration of nuclear light, we can decompose the galaxies with a spheroid component and a disk component. The resulting spheroid luminosities correlate with $L_{rm 2-10 keV}$; higher (lower) X-ray luminosity AGNs tend to reside in luminous (less luminous) spheroids. It is also found that the hosts of luminous AGNs show a large spheroid-to-disk luminosity ratio ($sim$1), while those of less luminous AGNs spread between 0 and 1. The correlation between $L_{rm 2-10keV}$ and spheroid luminosity indicates that the relation between mass of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) and spheroid luminosity (BS-relation) at the intermediate redshifts. The BS-relation agrees with that in the local universe if the Eddington ratio of 0.24 is adopted, which is a mean value determined from our $ASCA$ type-1 AGN sample at similar redshifts through the broad-line width and continuum luminosity. The present study demonstrates the effectiveness of using type-2 AGNs at high redshifts to study their host properties.
We use stellar population synthesis modeling to analyze the host galaxy properties of a sample of 33 UV-selected, narrow-lined active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z ~ 2 - 3. In order to quantify the contribution of AGN emission to host galaxy broadband
We use highly spectroscopically complete deep and wide-area Chandra surveys to determine the cosmic evolution of hard X-ray-selected AGNs. We determine hard X-ray luminosity functions (HXLFs) for all spectral types and for broad-line AGNs (BLAGNs) al
We present results of near-infrared photometry (J, H, K_S) for a sample of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) obtained from hard X-ray surveys with ASCA. The sample covers the AGNs at z=0.1-1 with L(2-10keV)=10^42-10^46 erg/s with very high completeness.
With the launch of eROSITA (extended Roentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array), successfully occurred on 2019 July 13, we are facing the challenge of computing reliable photometric redshifts for 3 million of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) over
Hard X-ray surveys are an important tool for the study of active galactic nuclei (AGN): they provide almost an unbiased view of absorption in the extragalactic population, allow the study of spectral features such as reflection and high energy cut-of
