The evolution of the X-ray luminosity functions of unabsorbed and absorbed AGNs out to z ∼ 5

We present new measurements of the evolution of the X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) of unabsorbed and absorbed active galactic nuclei (AGNs) out to z ∼ 5. We construct samples containing 2957 sources detected at hard (2–7 keV) X-ray energies and 4351 sources detected at soft (0.5–2 keV) energies f...
