Open Questions Open Questions How do the present observations constrain the current SMBH-galaxy Coevolution paradigm ?
Virtually all massive galaxies host an AGN (all galaxies experienced AGN)Magorrian relation MSMBH/Mbulge ~ 0.001 AGN feedback switch off SF and subsequent accretion
It is matter of timescales (different phases) sub-mm galaxies (Alexander+05; Page talk)
Downsizing , luminosity & redshift dependence of obscured fraction (most likely related to mass and accretion rates)
Quantitative link with host galaxy properties (mass, SF, etc) Was the Magorrian relation already in place at high-z ?
Do we see feedback in action ? (cold/thick and/or warm absorbers) Compton Thick are likely to provide further hints (Daddi+07; Fiore+08)

The higher the average scattering/ reflection intensity, the lowerthe number of sources, the higher the mass which goes into the BH, the lower the accretion efficiency (and viceversa)

Assume e = 0.1 then KE / KBOL * R ~ from 2 to 7 (Luminosity dependent) If KE ~ KBOL then the putative population of completely enshrouded AGN (X-ray quiet) maybe as numerous as the obscured AGN population
If e ~ 0.3 even much more abundant (!)
They radiate in the mid-far Infrared Depending from the column density and covering factor they may belong to the Daddi+07 / Fiore+08 samples
May raise the SMBH contribution to the IR Background

Summary/PerspectivesSummary/Perspectives Aim to have “SDSS statistic” in the X-ray to put SMBH light up and evolution in a full context A truly multiwavelength approach is mandatory
Obscured SMBH may come in different flavours they could also be X-ray quiet XRB set a “very useful” integral limit but cannot by itself breaks the parameter degeneracy
Ultra deep XMM / Chandra and deep XEUS fields will reveal heavily obscured SMBH up to high redshifts

X-ray Astronomy 2009 : Present status, multi- approach and future perspectives
September 7-11 , 2009 BOLOGNA - ITALY Aula Magna S. Lucia
Third in a decadal series of X-ray astronomy conferences in Bologna, this meeting will highlight the contribution of XMM-Newton and Chandra observatories, ten years after their launch. Emphasis will be given on cosmic sources multiwavelength studies and associated synergies with major facilities at all wavelengths, and on the perspectives for future high energy astrophysics missions.
