• Background:– Preliminary classification from 2XMM selected objects
– Extragalactic data base (NED) and the 2XMM catalogue
• Motivation:– Obtain all available photometry for selected objects
– Build the SEDs from this photometry
– Multi-wavelength properties of the sample
• Feasibility:– Existing tools related to this proposal
– Massive queries through VO-compliant catalogues
– Automatic classification of data

Background
The 2XMM catalogue: largest X-ray objects collection:
• Serendipitous X-ray sources from observations taken between February 2000 and March 2007.
• Includes ~191000 unique sources, from ~247000 detections, most being AGN.
• Covers ~1% of the total sky.
NASA Extragalactic Database: largest extragalactic database

Conclusions (so far):
• 2XMM catalogue useful to re-classify many extragalactic sources
• ~1300 galaxies show indications of being AGNs, mainly type I
• Results in a sample of ~3000 X-ray selected AGN
• VO-tools: “secure sample” & analysis
![Page 17: Spectral Energy Distributions of 2XMM-selected AGN & VO-tools Rodrigo Gil-Merino Instituto de Física de Cantabria (CSIC-UC) Santander, Spain MAVO workshop,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f185503460f94c2f603/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• AGN are multi-wavelength emitters and we need multi-band photometry to well understand them.
• General emission and absorption mechanisms are well accepted, but not their relative importance
• This is crucial to establish the general features of each class of AGN and the validity of the general unified scheme.
Motivation

Feasibility
• Build the SEDs of ~3000 AGN (restframe)
• Analyse them and compute the “mean” SEDs in luminosity, redshift and by types
• Study most extreme cases of outliers in the SEDs sample
• Use SEDs to re-classify the sample when possible
EURO-VO proposal:
![Page 20: Spectral Energy Distributions of 2XMM-selected AGN & VO-tools Rodrigo Gil-Merino Instituto de Física de Cantabria (CSIC-UC) Santander, Spain MAVO workshop,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f185503460f94c2f603/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Requirements from VO-tools:
• VOSED: – for each query, can we obtain just one file for the whole SED?– can we add catalogues?.... We couldn´t find all (XMM, APM..)– can we apply any quality criteria?
• VO-Spec:– can we load any SED as a spectrum? (It works from VOSED)– we need to do statistics on large number of spectra, can we?
• WE NEED a batch system to be able to launch multi-position/object queries (out sample contains ~3000 objects, no way one by one)

Acknowledgements
• EURO-VO AIDA framework: is an excellent opportunity to present a science case with special VO-tools needs.
• VO people is working really hard to make this possible, doing an excellent job for us.
