Journal ArticleDOI
X-ray studies of quasars with the Einstein Observatory. II
G. Zamorani,J. P. Henry,Tommaso Maccacaro,Harvey Tananbaum,A. M. Soltan,Y. Avni,J. Liebert,John T. Stocke,P. A. Strittmatter,R.J. Weymann,M.G. Smith,James J. Condon +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the positions, fluxes and luminosities of 35 known quasars were observed by the Einstein high-resolution imaging detector and the imaging proportional counter, with evidence of very little cold gas absorption.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Luminosity Function of X-Ray-selected Active Galactic Nuclei: Evolution of Supermassive Black Holes at High Redshift
John D. Silverman,Paul J. Green,Wayne A. Barkhouse,Dong-Woo Kim,Minjin Kim,Belinda Jane Wilkes,Robert A. Cameron,Günther Hasinger,Buell T. Jannuzi,Malcolm G. Smith,Paul S. Smith,Harvey Tananbaum +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a measure of the hard (2Y8 keV) X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of AGNs up to z � 5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of complete quasar samples to obtain parameters of luminosity and evolution functions
TL;DR: In this article, a parametric likelihood analysis of the joint redshift-luminosity distribution is presented for a composite, complete sample of 32 quasars with B between 17.0 and 19.2 selected on the basis of ultraviolet excess.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Lynx architecture enables a broad range of unique and compelling science to be carried out mainly through a General Observer Program, envisioned to include detecting the very first seed black holes, revealing the high-energy drivers of galaxy formation and evolution, and characterizing the mechanisms that govern stellar evolution and stellar ecosystems.
