Identifying Luminous Active Galactic Nuclei in Deep Surveys: Revised IRAC Selection Criteria
Jennifer L. Donley,Anton M. Koekemoer,Marcella Brusa,Peter Capak,Carolin N. Cardamone,Francesca Civano,O. Ilbert,Chris Impey,Jeyhan S. Kartaltepe,Takamitsu Miyaji,Takamitsu Miyaji,Mara Salvato,David B. Sanders,Jonathan R. Trump,G. Zamorani +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the large samples of luminous active galactic nuclei and high-redshift star-forming galaxies in COSMOS to redefine the AGN selection criteria for use in deep IRAC surveys.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed 140 XMM-Newton-selected AGN host galaxies and a matched control sample of 1264 inactive galaxies over z ~ 0.3 − 1.0 and M∗ < 10^(11.7) M ∆ with high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging from the COSMOS field.
