摘要:

光度函数是研究星系演化的重要观测线索之一。本文给出了在SXDS和GWS场中X射线探测到的活动星系核的X射线光度函数。在0.5 - 7.0 keV波段,两个场的极限通量分别为9.0 × 10 ~(-15)和4.8 × 10 ~(-16)erg/cm ~ 2/sec ~(-1)。我们进行了分析,在三个X射线波段和两个红移间隔z < 1.4。此外,我们推导了不同光学形貌和X射线类型的光度函数。我们确认强烈的光度演化在所有三个波段,找到最明亮的物体在更高的红移。然而,在任何测试的X射线带中均未发现密度演化的迹象。我们得到类似的结果紧凑和早期类型的对象。最后,我们观察到的“斯特芬效应”,其中X射线类型1的源是更多的在更高的亮度相比,类型2的来源。

英文摘要:

Luminosity functions are one of the most important observational clues when studying galaxy evolution over cosmic time. In this paper we present the X-ray luminosity functions of X-ray detected AGN in the SXDS and GWS fields. The limiting fluxes of our samples are 9.0x10^(-15) and 4.8x10^(-16) erg/cm^2/sec^(-1) in the 0.5 - 7.0 keV band in the two fields, respectively. We carried out analysis in three X-ray bands and in two redshift intervals up to z < 1.4. Moreover, we derive the luminosity functions for different optical morphologies and X-ray types. We confirm strong luminosity evolution in all three bands, finding the most luminous objects at higher redshift. However, no signs of density evolution are found in any tested X-ray band. We obtain similar results for compact and early-type objects. Finally, we observe the `Steffen effect', where X-ray type-1 sources are more numerous at higher luminosities in comparison with type-2 sources.
