Title: | An ngVLA Wide Area AGN Survey | Authors: | Kirkpatrick, A. Hall, K. Nyland, K. Lacy, M. PRANDONI, ISABELLA |
Issue Date: | 2018 | Volume: | Science with a Next Generation Very Large Array | Editors: | Murphy, E. J. and the ngVLA Science Advisory Council | Series: | ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY OF THE PACIFIC CONFERENCE SERIES | Number: | 517 | First Page: | 639 | Abstract: | The next generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) will have unprecedented sensitivities and mapping speeds at 1.2-8 GHz. We discuss how the active galactic nuclei (AGN) community can benefit from a wide-area, medium depth ngVLA survey. We propose a 10 deg<SUP>2</SUP> survey in the Stripe 82 field using the 8 GHz band with an rms depth of 1 μJy beam<SUP>-1</SUP>. We will detect ∼130,000 galaxies, including radio-quiet AGN out to z ∼ 7. We can measure the luminosity and space density evolution of radio-quiet and radio-loud AGN. We can also measure AGN evolution through clustering of both populations using cross-correlation functions. A wide area ngVLA survey will benefit from existing multiwavelength AGN populations, particularly in the Stripe 82 field, as well as new information from next-generation optical and infrared survey instruments such as LSST and WFIRST. | Conference Name: | Science with a Next Generation Very Large Array | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/27612 | URL: | http://aspbooks.org/custom/publications/paper/517-0639.html | ISSN: | 1050-3390 | ISBN: | 978-1-58381-919-7 | Bibcode ADS: | 2018ASPC..517..639K | Fulltext: | open |
