IRS Spectra of GOODS AGN
Infrared emission from AGN comes from dust heated by black hole accretion and/or star-formation. Separating the contributions in optical/UV light can be difficult, particularly when obscuration is high; mid-infrared spectra are less affected by obscuration and thus offer diagnostics of the underlying power source(s). We present Spitzer IRS spectra of 10 IR-bright, hard X-ray-selected AGN from the GOODS-North field, spanning the redshift range 0.485This work was supported by NASA JPL/Spitzer grant RSA 177278. This work is based on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology under a contract with NASA. Support for this work was provided by NASA JPL/Spitzer grant RSA 177278.
