The Cosmic Evolution of Active Galactic Nuclei


Chandra detects X-rays emitted during accretion onto supermassive black holes, even when they are highly obscured. Using extensive spectroscopic observations of the X-ray sources detected in both deep and wide-area Chandra surveys, high-resolution HST ACS GOODS imaging, and SCUBA submillimeter observations, I will describe our reconstruction of the accretion history of supermassive black holes.
