Identifying Compton-thick Active Galactic Nuclei with a Machine Learning Algorithm in Chandra Deep Field-South

Compton-thick active galactic nuclei (CT-AGNs), which are defined by column density N _H ≥ 1.5 × 10 ^24 cm ^−2 , emit feeble X-ray radiation, even undetectable by X-ray instruments. Despite this, the X-ray emissions from CT-AGNs are believed to be a substantial contributor to the cosmic X-ray backgr...
