X-ray properties of AGNs in XBS

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

X-ray surveys are a key instrument in the study of active galactic nuclei (AGN).

Description

Thanks to their penetrating ability, X-rays are able to map the innermost regions close to the central super massive black hole (SMBH) as well as to detect and characterize its emission up to high redshift. We present here a detailed X-ray spectral analysis of the AGN belonging to the XMM-Newton bright survey (XBS).

The XBS is composed of two flux-limited samples selected in the complementary 0.5-4.5 and 4.5-7.5keV energy bands and comprising more than 300 AGN up to redshift ~2.4. We performed an X-ray analysis following two different approaches: by analyzing individually each AGN X-ray spectrum and by constructing average spectra for different AGN types.
