Active Galaxies in Cosmic X-ray Surveys: The Ecology of Distant AGNs

Abstract
Extragalactic X-ray surveys over the past decade have dramatically improved our understanding of the majority populations of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) over most of the history of the Universe. In this talk I will focus on the discoveries made from X-ray surveys on the ecology of distant AGNs – the connection between the growing black holes at the centre of galaxies and the larger-scale environment.
Series This talk is part of the Institute of Astronomy Colloquia series.
