(2010).”
Galaxy pairs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey – IX. Merger-induced AGN activity as traced by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (2014, background): “Based on the templates from Assef et al.

A CORRELATION BETWEEN STAR FORMATION RATE AND AVERAGE BLACK HOLE ACCRETION IN STAR-FORMING GALAXIES (2013, background): “These selection criteria has been shown to effectively identify obscured AGN at moderate redshift (Gorjian et al. 2008; Assef et al. 2010), since mid-IR wavelengths are not as strongly affected by obscuration as the optical or UV (e.g. Lacy et al. 2004; Stern et al. 2005; Donley et al. 2007; Hickox…”
Cosmic X-ray surveys of distant active galaxies (2015, background): “Reliable host-galaxy measurements for the population of luminous and unobscured AGNs are also possible provided the AGN emission can be accurately constrained (and therefore removed) at UV–NIR wavelengths (e.g., Assef et al 2010; Merloni et al 2010; Bongiorno et al 2012; Santini et al 2012).”
CHARACTERIZING THE MID-INFRARED EXTRAGALACTIC SKY WITH WISE AND SDSS (2012, methodology): “As discussed below and shown with color-redshift tracks for galaxy templates from Assef et al. (2010), redder W1−W2 color is an indicator of early-type and star-forming galaxies being at higher redshifts, z ∼> 1.”
