We present results of a complete radio follow-up obtained with the VLA and ATCA radio telescopes down to a 6 cm flux limit of about 0.3 mJy of all the 147 X-ray sources detected in the BeppoSAX HELLAS survey. We found 53 X-ray/radio likely associations, corresponding to about one third of the X-ray sample. Using the two point spectral index alpha_ro=0.35 we divided all the HELLAS X-ray sources in radio quiet and radio loud. We have 26 sources classified as radio-loud objects, corresponding to about 18% of the HELLAS sample. In agreement with previous results, the identified radio-loud sources are associated mainly with Type 1 AGNs with L(5-10 keV) > 10^44 erg/s, while all the identified Type 2 AGNs and Emission Line Galaxies are radio quiet objects with L(5-10 keV) < 10^44 erg/s. The analysis of the radio spectral index suggests that Type 1 AGNs have a mean radio spectral index flatter than Type 2 AGNs and Emission Line Galaxies.

We present optical spectroscopic identifications of hard X-ray (5-10 keV) selected sources belonging to the HELLAS sample obtained with BeppoSAX down to a 5-10 keV flux limit of f_{5-10 keV}~3x10^-14 erg cm^-2 s^-1. The sample consists of 118 sources
. 25 sources have been identified trough correlations with catalogues of known sources. 49 have been searched for spectroscopic identification at the telescope. 13 fields resulted empty down to R=21. 37 sources have been identified with type 1 AGN and 9 with type 2 AGN. The remaining are: 5 narrow emission line galaxies, 6 Clusters, 2 BL Lac, 1 Radio Galaxy and 1 Star. Combining these objects with other hard X-ray selected AGNs from ASCA and HEAO1, we find that the local luminosity function of type 1 AGN in the 2-10 keV band is fairly well represented by a double-power-law-function. There is evidence for significant cosmological evolution according to a pure luminosity evolution (PLE) model L_X(z)~(1+z)^k, with k=2.12 and k=2.22 in a (Omega_m,Omega_lambda)=(1.0,0.0) and in a (Omega_m,Omega_lambda)=(0.3,0.7) cosmology, respectively. The data show an excess of faint high redshift type 1 AGN which is well modeled by a luminosity dependent density evolution (LDDE), similarly to what observed in the soft X-rays. However, in both cosmologies, the statistic is not significant enough to distinguish between the PLE and LDDE models. The fitted models imply a contribution of AGN1 to the 2-10 keV X-ray background from 35% up to 60%.
We present BeppoSAX observations of the Southern S1 region in the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). These observations cover an area of ~1.7 sq. deg. and reach an on-axis (~0.7 sq. deg) 2-10 keV (HX) sensitivity of ~10E-13 cgs. This is the firs
t HX analysis of an ISOCAM survey. We detect 9 sources with a signal to noise ratio SNR_HX>3, 4 additional sources with a 1.3 to 10 keV (T) SNR_T>3 and 2 additional sources which appear to be associated with QSOs with SNR_T>2.9. The number densities of the SNR_HX>3 sources are consistent with the ASCA and BeppoSAX logN-logS functions. Six BeppoSAX sources have reliable ISOCAM 15 micron counterparts within ~60 arcsec. All these ISOCAM sources have optical counterparts of R<20 mags. Five of these sources have been previously optically classified giving 4 QSOs and 1 BALQSO at z=2.2. The remaining unclassified source has X-ray and photometric properties consistent with that of a nearby Seyfert galaxy. One further HX source has a 2.6sigma ISOCAM counterpart associated with a galaxy at z=0.325. If this ISOCAM source is real, the HX/MIR properties suggest either an unusual QSO or a cD cluster galaxy. We have constructed MIR and HX spectral energy distributions to compute the expected HX/MIR ratios for these classes of objects up to z=3.2 and assess the HX/MIR survey depth. The BALQSO has an observed X-ray softness ratio and HX/MIR flux ratio similar to QSOs but different to those found for low redshift BALQSOs. This difference can be explained in terms of absorption, and suggests that high redshift BALQSOs should be comparatively easy to detect in the HX band, allowing their true fraction in the high redshift QSO population to be determined (ABRIDGED).
We report the discovery of the first hyperluminous infrared galaxy (HyLIG) in the course of the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). This object has been detected by ISO at 6.7, 15, and 90 microns, and is found to be a broad-line, radio-quiet quas
ar at a redshift: z = 1.099. From a detailed multi-component model fit of the spectral energy distribution, we derive a total infrared luminosity: L_IR (1-1000 microns) ~ 1.0 x 10E13 h_65^-2 L_sun (q_0 = 0.5), and discuss the possible existence of a starburst contributing to the far-IR output. Observations to date present no evidence for lens magnification. This galaxy is one of the very few HyLIGs with an X-ray detection. On the basis of its soft X-ray properties, we suggest that this broad-line object may be the face-on analogue of narrow-line, Seyfert-like HyLIGs.
The Australia Telescope Large Area Survey (ATLAS) has surveyed seven square degrees of sky around the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS) and the European Large Area ISO Survey - South 1 (ELAIS-S1) fields at 1.4 GHz. ATLAS aims to reach a uniform sensiti
vity of $10 mu$Jy beam$^{-1}$ rms over the entire region with data release 1 currently reaching $sim30 mu$Jy beam$^{-1}$ rms. Here we present 466 new spectroscopic redshifts for radio sources in ATLAS as part of our optical follow-up program. Of the 466 radio sources with new spectroscopic redshifts, 142 have star-forming optical spectra, 282 show evidence for AGN in their optical spectra, 10 have stellar spectra and 32 have spectra revealing redshifts, but with insufficient features to classify. We compare our spectroscopic classifications with two mid-infrared diagnostics and find them to be in broad agreement. We also construct the radio luminosity function for star-forming galaxies to z $= 0.5$ and for AGN to z $= 0.8$. The radio luminosity function for star-forming galaxies appears to be in good agreement with previous studies. The radio luminosity function for AGN appears higher than previous studies of the local AGN radio luminosity function. We explore the possibility of evolution, cosmic variance and classification techniques affecting the AGN radio luminosity function. ATLAS is a pathfinder for the forthcoming EMU survey and the data presented in this paper will be used to guide EMUs survey design and early science papers.
We present post-cryogenic Spitzer imaging at 3.6 and 4.5 micron with the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) of the Spitzer/HETDEX Exploratory Large-Area (SHELA) survey. SHELA covers $sim$deg$^2$ of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 region, and falls w
ithin the footprints of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) and the Dark Energy Survey. The HETDEX blind R $sim$ 800 spectroscopy will produce $sim$ 200,000 redshifts from the Lyman-$alpha$ emission for galaxies in the range 1.9 < z < 3.5, and an additional $sim$200,000 redshifts from the [OII] emission for galaxies at z < 0.5. When combined with deep ugriz images from the Dark Energy Camera, K-band images from NEWFIRM, and other ancillary data, the IRAC photometry from Spitzer will enable a broad range of scientific studies of the relationship between structure formation, galaxy stellar mass, halo mass, AGN, and environment over a co-moving volume of $sim$0.5 Gpc$^3$ at 1.9 < z < 3.5. Here, we discuss the properties of the SHELA IRAC dataset, including the data acquisition, reduction, validation, and source catalogs. Our tests show the images and catalogs are 80% (50%) complete to limiting magnitudes of 22.0 (22.6) AB mag in the detection image, which is constructed from the weighted sum of the IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 micron images. The catalogs reach limiting sensitivities of 1.1 $mu$Jy at both 3.6 and 4.5 micron (1$sigma$, for R=2 arcsec circular apertures). As a demonstration of science, we present IRAC number counts, examples of highly temporally variable sources, and galaxy surface density profiles of rich galaxy clusters. In the spirit of Spitzer Exploratory programs we provide all images and catalogs as part of the publication.
