We analyse different photometric and spectroscopic properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and quasars (QSOs) selected by their mid-IR power-law and X-ray emission from the COSMOS survey. We use a set of star-forming galaxies as a…

In this work, we aimed at investigating the star formation rate of active galactic nuclei host galaxies in the early Universe. To this end, we constructed a sample of 149 luminous ($\rm L_{2-10keV} > 10^{44}\,erg\,s^{-1}$) X-ray AGNs at…

We study the relationship between the structure and star-formation rate (SFR) of X-ray selected low and moderate luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the two Chandra Deep Fields, using Hubble Space Telescope imaging from the Cosmic…

We present a study of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity in the local Universe (z < 0.33) and its correlation with the host galaxy properties, derived from a Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS DR8) sample with spectroscopic…

We report the relationship between the luminosities of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and the rates of star formation (SF) for a sample of 323 far-infrared (FIR)-detected AGNs. This sample has a redshift range of 0.2 $< z <$ 2.5, and spans…

It is well known that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their host galaxies co-evolve. AGN feedback plays an important role on this symbiosis. To study the effect of the AGN feedback on the host galaxy, a popular method is to study the…

We present a study of the infrared properties of X-ray selected, moderate luminosity (Lx=10^{42}-10^{44}ergs/s) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) up to z~3, to explore the links between star formation in galaxies and accretion onto their…

We use a sample of active galaxies from the Cosmic Evolution Survey to show that host galaxy morphology is tied to the accretion rate and X-ray obscuration of its active galactic nucleus (AGN). Unobscured and rapidly accreting broad-line…

We adopt a Bayesian X-ray spectral approach to investigate the accretion properties of unobscured ($20<\log(N_{\rm H}/{\rm cm}^{-2}<22$) and obscured ($22< \log(N_{\rm H}/{\rm cm}^{-2}<24$) active galactic nuclei (AGN) to shed light on the…

We study properties of the host galaxies of 15 hard X-ray selected type-2 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at intermediate redshifts (0.05$<z<$0.6) detected in $ASCA$ surveys. The absorption corrected hard X-ray luminosities $L_{\rm 2-10 keV}$…

We examine the properties of the host galaxies of 22,623 narrow-line AGN with 0.02<z<0.3 selected from a complete sample of 122,808 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We focus on the luminosity of the [OIII]$\lambda$5007 emission…

We determine the intrinsic shapes and orientations of 27,450 type I and II active galactic nucleus (AGN) galaxies in the spectroscopic sample of the SDSS DR7, by studying the distribution of projected axis ratios of AGN hosts. Our aim is to…

The interplay between star formation and supermassive black-hole growth is central to galaxy evolution, but how host-galaxy morphology regulates star-formation enhancement and AGN triggering across the star-forming main sequence remains…

We present a study of the host galaxies of AGN selected from the zCOSMOS survey to establish if accretion onto supermassive black holes and star formation are explicitly linked up to z~1. We identify 152 galaxies that harbor AGN, based on…

We study the clustering dependence of X-ray AGN and normal galaxies on the stellar mass (M$_\star$), star-formation rate (SFR) and specific star-formation rate (sSFR) of the (host) galaxy. Towards this end, we use 407 X-ray AGN from the…

This study involves a comparative analysis of the SFRs of AGN and non-AGN galaxies and of the SFRs of type 1 and 2 AGN. To carry out this investigation, we assembled a dataset consisting of 2\,677 X-ray AGN detected by the XMM-Newton…

We use $\sim 1,000$ X-ray sources in the COSMOS-Legacy survey and study the position of the AGN relative to the star forming main sequence (MS). We also construct a galaxy (non-AGN) reference sample that includes $\sim 90,000$ sources. We…

Black hole accretion is widely thought to influence star formation in galaxies, but the empirical evidence for a physical correlation between star formation rate (SFR) and the properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remains highly…

In this work, we compare the SFRs and SFHs of AGN and non-AGN galaxies. We explore these aspects across different density fields and over three orders of magnitude in L$_X$. For that purpose, we employ X-ray AGN detected in the XMM-XXL…

There is growing evidence supporting the coeval growth of galaxies and their resident SMBH. Most studies also claim a correlation between the activity of the SMBH and the star-formation of the host galaxy. It is unclear, though, whether…
