Scientific paper

The nature of the relationship between galaxy properties and their central supermassive black holes can be uniquely addressed by studying large, homogeneous samples of Active Galactic Nuclei {AGN} selected according to their hard X-ray emission. The combination of HST and Chandra/XMM provdes the potential to directly study the physical nature of these relationships. We propose an archival study using the GEMS survey of the Chandra Deep Field Soiuth {CDFS} which has the potential to increase by at least a factor of 5 the number of AGN from the GOODS survey, by virtue of the fact that the entire XMM field is covered {30' diameter}. The resulting sample of 700 - 800 AGN will allow us tro address the nature of the relationship between AGN and host properties, as well as their environments, as a function of cosmic time.
