This project aims to accurately determine the density of highly obscured active galactic nuclei using advanced X-ray spectroscopy and infrared techniques. By analyzing deep observations and identifying candidate sources, it seeks to enhance understanding of these elusive astronomical objects and their contribution to t…
We propose to derive the most accurate determination yet of the space density of Compton thick AGN using both X-ray spectroscopy and mid and far-IR techniques.
In particular we propose to analyse the deepest XMM observations ever obtained (1.3Ms) to directly identify highly obscured sources in the Chandra Deep Field South through their X-ray spectrra.
Still, according to the models, the bulk of the Compton thick sources should reside at even fainter fluxes i.e. they remain undetected even in the…
