Abstract:
We investigate the luminous X-ray sources in the Lockman Hole (LH) and
the extended Groth strip (EGS) detected at 24µm using the Multiband
Imaging Photometer (MIPS) and also with the Infrared Array Camera
(IRAC) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. We assemble
optical/infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 45
X-ray/24µm sources in the EGS and LH. Only about one-quarter of the
hard X-ray/24µm sources show pure type 1 active galactic nucleus
(AGN) SEDs. More than half of the X-ray/24µm sources have stellar
emission-dominated or obscured SEDs, similar to those of local type 2
AGN and spiral/starburst galaxies. One-third of the sources detected
in hard X-rays do not have a 24µm counterpart. Two such sources in
the LH have SEDs resembling those of S0/elliptical galaxies. The broad
variety of SEDs in the optical-to-Spitzer bands of X-ray-selected AGNs
means that AGNs selected according to the behavior in the
optical/infrared will have to be supplemented by other kinds of data
(e.g., X-ray) to produce unbiased samples of AGNs.
