Scientific paper

WISE is a uniquely efficient tool for finding active galactic nuclei (AGNs), identifying luminous AGN essential independent of the obscuration of the active nucleus. We discuss the WISE selection of AGN using SED modeling techniques, using the vast amount of multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic observations in the 10 deg2 NOAO Deep, Wide-Field Survey Bootes field (also known as the Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey and XBootes) and the COSMOS field. We discuss the biases and contamination of the mid-IR color AGN selection, and the physical properties of objects found by WISE.
