Properties of IR-bright AGNs
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We report the relationship between the luminosities of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and the rates of star formation (SF) for a sample of 323 far-infrared (FIR)-detected AGNs.
Description
This sample has a redshift range of 0.2<z<2.5, and spans three orders of magnitude in luminosity, L_X_~10^42-45^erg/s. We find that in AGN hosts, the total infrared (IR) luminosity (8-1000um) has a significant AGN contribution (average ~20 per cent), and we suggest using the FIR luminosity (30-1000um) as a more reliable star formation rate (SFR) estimator.
We conclude that monochromatic luminosities at 60 and 100um are also good SFR indicators with negligible AGN contributions, being less sensitive than integrated IR luminosities to the shape of the AGN spectral energy distribution (SED), which is uncertain at {lambda}>100um. Significant bivariate L_X_-L_IR_ correlations are found, which remain significant in the combined sample when using residual partial correlation analysis to account for the inherent redshift dependence.

No redshift or mass dependence is found for the ratio between SFR and black hole accretion rate (BHAR), which has a mean and scatter of log(SFR/BHAR)=3.1+/-0.5, agreeing with the local mass ratio between supermassive black hole and host galaxies. The large scatter in this ratio and the strong AGN-SF correlation found in these IR-bright AGNs are consistent with the scenario of an AGN-SF dependence on a common gas supply, regardless of the evolutionary model.
