COSMOS is a deep and wide multiwavelength survey of a 2 square degree equatorial field including the largest HST ACS survey and has been surveyed deeply at wavelengths from radio (VLA) to X-ray (XMM), including ground-based imaging to AB 26 in 7 bands from 0.3 2 microns, IR imaging from Spitzer and UV imaging from GALEX. In two observing seasons Magellan and VLT spectroscopy has already identified 500 AGNs.
COSMOS is ideal for the study general form of the the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of AGNs. Previous studies have been limited to optical selection, or X-ray/UV selection (Elvis et al., 1994), and span a narrow range of maximum/minimum fluxes at all frequencies, restricting the observable SED forms to a narrow 'spectral window'. COSMOS allows 'bolometric' AGN selection using all known techniques.
Here we show the prelimimary results of the SEDs of the first season of AGNs spectroscopially identifed with Magellan/IMACS spectrum. The sample contains 70 Type I AGNs. We find a large variety of SEDs this sample, which is encouraging for the statistical study of the SEDs of AGNs and AGN properties in the near future with the full COSMOS AGN sample.
The HST COSMOS Treasury program was supported through NASA grant HST-GO-09822
