论文摘要
附近的麦哲伦云系统覆盖了天空上的200多个平方度。它的大部分已在高角度分辨率和灵敏度X射线(XMM-NEWTON),UV(UVIT),光学(Smash),IR(Vista,Wise,Wise,Spitzer,Herschel,Herschel),无线电(ATCA,ASKAP,MEERKAT)上映射在电磁频谱上。这为我们提供了一个出色的数据集,可以探索恒星富含麦哲伦云的星系人群。我们试图通过机器学习算法在此精致的数据集上识别和表征AGN。我们的项目并不着重于建立星系和主动银河核(AGN)的序列和分布,而是试图确定极端例子,这是基于最近在麦哲伦云背后独特的意外发现的意外发现。
The nearby Magellanic Clouds system covers more than 200 square degrees on the sky. Much of it has been mapped across the electromagnetic spectrum at high angular resolution and sensitivity X-ray (XMM-Newton), UV (UVIT), optical (SMASH), IR (VISTA, WISE, Spitzer, Herschel), radio (ATCA, ASKAP, MeerKAT). This provides us with an excellent dataset to explore the galaxy populations behind the stellar-rich Magellanic Clouds. We seek to identify and characterise AGN via machine learning algorithms on this exquisite data set. Our project focuses not on establishing sequences and distributions of common types of galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN), but seeks to identify extreme examples, building on the recent accidental discoveries of unique AGN behind the Magellanic Clouds.
