Photometry was per-formed on a sample of 24 infrared powerlaw-selected AGN candidates and 104 X-raysources with optical counterparts. We findthat while the majority of variable objectsare unobscured AGN, 30% of IR-only selectedcandidates show evidence of AGN via opticalvariability. 2007 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57102971 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.29 |
