Long-term NIR Variability in the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey: a new probe of AGN activity at high redshift (2020)
Journal Article
Elmer, E., Almaini, O., Merrifield, M., Hartley, W. G., Maltby, D. T., Lawrence, A., Botti, I., & Hirst, P. (2020). Long-term NIR Variability in the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey: a new probe of AGN activity at high redshift. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 493(2), 3026-3035. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa381

We present the first attempt to select active galactic nuclei (AGN) using long-Term near-infrared (NIR) variability. By analysing the K-band light curves of all the galaxies in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Ultra Deep Survey, the deepes...

Astrophysical Journal, 862(2), Article 101. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aacdaa

We describe the application of supervised machine-learning algorithms to identify the likely multiwavelength counterparts to submillimeter sources detected in panoramic, single-dish submillimeter surveys. As a training set, we employ a sample of 695...
