X-ray surveys of the extragalactic universe are now able to detect significant numbers of AGN out to high redshift (z~5). We highlight some results from the Chandra Multiwavelength Project (ChaMP) to measure the X-ray luminosity function…

We present the LyA emission line luminosity function (LF) of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in the first release of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment Survey (HETDEX) AGN catalog (Liu et al. 2022, Paper I). The AGN are…

In this proceedings paper, I overview the current status of the X-ray luminosity function of AGNs in the soft (0.5-2 keV) band, extended using XMM-Newton and Chandra survey data. We found that the number density of low luminosity AGNs peaks…

The high angular resolution and sensitivity of the Chandra X-ray Observatory has yielded large numbers of faint X-ray sources with measured redshifts in the soft (0.5-2 keV) and hard (2-8 keV) energy bands. Many of these sources show few…

We present a determination of the local (z=0) luminosity function of optically selected type 1 (broad-line) Active Galactic Nuclei. Our primary resource is the Hamburg/ESO Survey (HES), which provides a well-defined sample of more than 300…

We study the cosmic evolution of radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using a beaming-minimized sample of 4{,}555 steep-spectrum sources over $0<z\lesssim4$, compiled from the XXL survey, VLA-COSMOS, and other wide-field data sets. We…

X-rays offer a reliable method to identify Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). However, in the high-redshift Universe X-ray AGN are poorly sampled due to their relatively low space density and the small areas covered by X-ray surveys. In addition…

Almost all massive galaxies today are understood to contain supermassive black holes (SMBH) at their centers. SMBHs grew by accreting material from their surroundings, emitting X-rays as they did so. X-ray Luminosity Functions (XLFs) of…

We present the first direct measurements of the rest-frame 10-40 keV X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) based on a sample of 94 sources at 0.1 < z <3, selected at 8-24 keV energies from sources in the NuSTAR…

We present a new determination of the optical luminosity function (OLF) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) at low redshifts (z<0.15) based on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of X-ray-selected AGN. The HST observations have allowed us…

We aim to constrain the evolution of AGN as a function of obscuration using an X-ray selected sample of $\sim2000$ AGN from a multi-tiered survey including the CDFS, AEGIS-XD, COSMOS and XMM-XXL fields. The spectra of individual X-ray…

We investigated the statistics of the X-ray spectral properties of a complete flux-limited sample of bright AGNs from HEAO-1 all-sky catalogs to provide the bright end constraint of the evolution of AGN hard X-ray luminosity function (HXLF)…

The XLF of AGN offers a robust tool to study the evolution and the growth of SMBHs over cosmic time. Owing to the limited area probed by X-ray surveys, optical surveys are routinely used to probe the accretion in the high redshift Universe…

We investigate the population of high-redshift ($3\leq z < 6$) AGN selected in the two deepest X-ray surveys, the 7 Ms \textit{Chandra} Deep Field-South and 2 Ms \textit{Chandra} Deep Field-North. Their outstanding sensitivity and spectral…

A sample of 198 soft X--ray selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) from the ROSAT International X--ray Optical Survey (RIXOS), is used to investigate the X--ray luminosity function and its evolution. RIXOS, with a flux limit of 3E-14 erg s-1…

We present the estimate of the evolution of type 1 AGNs in the hard (2-10 keV) X-rays drawn from the HELLAS survey, and in the IR (15um) obtained from the ELAIS survey. We find that the local luminosity function (LF) of AGN1 in the 2-10 keV…

SMBHs are theorised to undergo significant growth in the early Universe, however, the X-ray Luminosity Function (XLF), used as a principal tracer of the SMBH accretion density, lacks observational constraints at z>6, until now. We present…

We use the INTEGRAL all-sky hard X-ray survey to perform a statistical study of a representative sample of nearby AGN. Our entire all-sky sample consists of 127 AGN, of which 91 are confidently detected (>5 sigma) on the time-averaged map…
