UV/far-IR data of infrared excess sources
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We explore the nature of Infrared Excess sources (IRX), which are proposed as candidates for luminous [LX(2-10keV)>10^43^erg/s] Compton thick (NH>2x10^24^cm^-2^) QSOs at z~~2.
Description
Lower redshift, z~~1, analogues of the distant IRX population are identified by first redshifting to z=2 the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of all sources with secure spectroscopic redshifts in the AEGIS (6488) and the GOODS-North (1784) surveys and then selecting those that qualify as IRX sources at that redshift.
A total of 19 galaxies are selected. The mean redshift of the sample is z~~1. We do not find strong evidence for Compton thick QSOs in the sample.

For nine sources with X-ray counterparts, the X-ray spectra are consistent with Compton thin active galactic nucleus (AGN). Only three of them show tentative evidence for Compton thick obscuration. The SEDs of the X-ray undetected population are consistent with starburst activity.
