Scientific paper

We combine optical data from the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey (NDWFS), X-ray data from the XBoötes X-ray survey and redshifts from the AGN and Galaxy Evolution Survey (AGES) to measure the X-ray evolution of normal galaxies as a function of absolute luminosity and spectral type over the range 0 < z < 0.5. We discuss the implications of our results for the star formation and nuclear accretion rates of normal galaxies.
Our research is supported by the National Optical Astronomy Observatory which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA) under a cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation.
