Overview
AGN sample was drawn from the wide-angle BUXS (Mateos et al. 2012MNRAS.426.3271M). BUXS is a large, complete, flux-limited sample of X-ray bright (f4.5-10keV>6×10-14erg/s/cm2) AGN detected with the XMM-Newton observatory at 4.5-10 keV energies. The survey is based on 381 high Galactic latitude (|b|>20°) XMM-Newton observations having good quality for serendipitous source detection that were used to derive extragalactic source count distributions at intermediate X-ray fluxes (Mateos et al. 2008A&A…492…51M). BUXS contains 255 AGN, after removal of Galactic stars and known BL Lacs (<3 per cent), detected over a total sky area of 44.43 deg2.
