Modeling obscured quasar spectral energy distributions and redshifts with WISE
Christopher M. Carroll1, Ryan C. Hickox1, Kevin N. Hainline21Dartmouth College, 2Steward Observatory
ObjectiveObscured quasars represent a large fraction of the total number of powerful active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and observations of these enigmatic objects are necessary to describe the full quasar population. Dust extinction in obscured quasars grants us the ability to observe their host galaxies, and modeling the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for these systems allows us to make connections between AGN emission and physical properties of their hosts. We obtain estimates of photometric redshift from obscured quasars identified by their mid-infrared photometry detected by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE; Wright et al. 2010) and cross-matched with optical photometry from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS; York et al. 2000).
ConclusionWe model the SEDs of obscured quasars within the SDSS+WISE footprint and obtain estimates of photometric redshift, as well as physical properties such as nuclear extinction. We compare our method with SDSS DR12 photometric redshifts and seek to improve our prescription bias. Using a combination of spectroscopic and photometric redshifts we determine the luminosity distribution of obscured AGN and determine the obscured fraction as a function of luminosity.

Obscured fractionFor SDSS+WISE AGN with spectroscopic (SDSS DR9; Ahn et al. 2012) and photometric (SDSS DR12; Beck et al. 2016; XDQSO+WISE; DiPompeo et al. 2015) redshifts, we convert the rest-frame 8 μm flux to bolometric luminosity Lbol using the AGN template. We determine the obscured fraction fobsc and note that for Lbol ≥ 1046, fobsc > 50%, while fobsc drops at low Lbol due to the decreasing efficiency of selecting obscured AGN using mid-IR color criteria (e.g., Hickox et al. 2007).
SED modellingWe model our SEDs using empirical galaxy+AGN templates constructed by Assef et al. (2010). We model extinction with a Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) like extinction curve for λ < 3300 Å (Gordon & Clayton 1998), and a Galactic extinction curve at longer wavelengths (Cardelli et al. 1989).
Redshift comparisonOur approach models heavily obscured quasars and produces photometric redshifts comparable to their known spectroscopic redshifts. There is systematic bias toward high redshift which is currently under investigation. Here we compare our work to the updated SDSS DR12 photometric redshifts (Beck et al. 2016).
Obscured quasar sampleUtilizing both optical and mid-IR photometry, color selection criteria indicative of obscuration can be used to detect obscured quasars from existing data (Hickox et al. 2007; Stern et al. 2012). Our full sample consists of all obscured AGN detect detected within the SDSS+WISE
footprint which satisfy our color section criteria:• W1 − W2 ≥ 0.8 (Vega): indicative of obscuration (Stern et al. 2012)• r − W2AB > 3.1 (AB): removes broad-line AGN contamination (Hickox et al. 2007)WISE color–color diagram (Vega) displaying the ability to select select differentdifferent classes of objects based on mid-IR emission (Wright
et al. 2010). A WISE color cut of W1 − W2 ≥ 0.8 readily identifies obscured sources.

LMT Early Science: Molecular Gas in CT AGN I. Cruz-González et al.
Large Millimeter Telescope Early Science results of a systematic study of molecular gas of nearby CT AGN.
Redshift Search Receiver (RSR) spectra of CT AGN to probe their molecular gas emission to study the mechanisms driving the AGN emission at millimeter wavelengths and the possible SF enhancement for CT AGN.
RSR spectra from 74 to 111 GHz, allows velocity line widths from 85 to 125 km/s across the whole 3 mm band, with a beam size (FWHM) of 31, 25 and 21 arcsec at 73, 92 and 111 GHz, respectively.
Spatially probe scales from ∼20 kpc up to ∼190 kpc for nearby CT AGN.

Chandra observations of 0.5<z<1 3CRR sources
low NH NLRG
We study a complete, low frequency radio (178 MHz) selected, and hence orientation unbiased sample of medium redshift (0.5<z<1) 3CRR sources observed by Chandra. !Radio-core dominance (RCD) provides an estimate of AGN orientation. Great sample to study orientation effects in AGN although limited to radio-loud sources.
1. Quasars: soft HR, low obscuration NH < 1022.5cm-2 and face-on orientation (high RCD) !2. NLRGs: wide range of HR, range of NH > 1020.5cm-2 and higher inclination angles (low RCD) !3. Strong correlation of LX(0.3-8keV)/Lradio and NH with RCD is consistent with orientation-dependent obscuration as in Unification models:
Ratio of unobscured/obscured sources = 1 14% of sample are Compton-thick candidates - high L[OIII]/L(2-8keV) and/or L(30!m)/L(2-8keV)

• Constrain Feedback Models (Hopkins 2007)
SpIES probes much deeper than WISE allowing for discovery of new objects such as high-zand type 2 quasars
• Use photo-z’s to compute z-space correlation function
• Compare to Shen 2007 high-z results (biased sample??)
WISE recovers 55% of SDSS quasars whereas SpIESrecovers 98%; objects as faint as i=22 and as distant as z=6
For QSOs with z > 3.5, WISErecovers 25% (the Assef cuts recover 3.5%) whereas SpIESmatches to 94%

• Found 77 type 2 quasar candidates in SpIESand 44 in SHELA
• Candidates have WISE 24μm > 5mJy, are in SpIES, and either are not detected in SDSS (69 objects) or are very red with r-W4>13 (8 objects)
• Goal is to identify ~1 high-z (z>1) type 2 QSO per square degree to match the type 1 density
