Scientific paper

We show how the Astrophysical Virtual Observatory (AVO) prototype has been used to identify high redshift type 2 AGN in the GOODS fields. Using an empirical estimator for the X-ray luminosity, we find many high power candidates which qualify as QSO-2 objects, significantly increasing the number of known objects, and providing new estimates for the QSO-2 number density. This work shows how the first Virtual Observatory interoperability gains are leading to scientific discoveries.
