The X-ray to optical-UV luminosity ratio of X-ray selected Type 1 AGN in XMM-COSMOS
read the original abstract
We present a study of the X-ray to optical properties of a sample of 545 X-ray selected Type 1 AGN, from the XMM-COSMOS survey, over a wide range of redshifts ($0.04<\z<4.25$) and X-ray luminosities ($40.6 \leq \Log \Lhard \leq 45.3$). About 60% of them are spectroscopically identified Type 1 AGN, while the others have a reliable photometric redshift and are classified as Type 1 AGN on the basis of their multi-band Spectral Energy Distributions. We discuss the relationship between UV and X-ray luminosity, as parameterized by the $\alphaox$ spectral slope, and its dependence on redshift and luminosity. We compare our findings with previous investigations of optically selected broad-line AGN (mostly from SDSS). A highly significant correlation between $\alphaox$ and $\lo$ is found, in agreement with previous investigations of optically selected samples. We calculate bolometric corrections, $\kbol$, for the whole sample using hard X-ray luminosities ($\Lhard$), and the Eddington ratios for a subsample of 150 objects for which black hole mass estimates are available. We confirm the trend of increasing bolometric correction with increasing Eddington ratio as proposed in previous works. A tight correlation is found between $\alphaox$ and $\kbol$, which can be used to estimate accurate bolometric corrections using only optical and X-ray data. We find a significant correlation between $\alphaox$ and Eddington ratio, in which $\alphaox$ increases for increasing Eddington ratios.

On the quenching of LRD X-ray emission by both Compton-thick gas and high accretion rates
LRDs require Compton-thick gas at moderate metallicity plus high accretion rates producing weak X-rays to explain their non-detection, implying they are not chemically pristine.

The Fundamental Planes of Black Hole Activity for High-Synchrotron-Peaked BL Lacertae Objects
A sample of 69 HBLs yields intrinsic radio-X-ray correlation L_R,int ∝ L_X,int^0.68 and fundamental plane log L_R,int = 0.57 log L_X,int + 0.33 log M_BH + 12.65, consistent with synchrotron cooling model for X-ray emission.
