Abstract: |
The X-ray-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of a sample of
X-ray selected AGN at z=0.2–3 are modeled with a nuclear and
host component in order to determine the importance of host type, nuclear
obscuration, and AGN intrinsic SED in sources of different type and
luminosity. Overall, there is a good correspondence between optical
obscuration and X-ray absorption. The AGN is X-ray absorbed in type 2 AGN
and
unabsorbed in type 1 AGN, as expected. We find two types of intrinsic AGN
SEDs with different X-ray/mid-infrared luminosity ratios independently of
the AGN luminosity and obscuration. |
