The Spitzer mid-infrared active galactic nucleus survey. I. Optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of obscured candidates and normal active galactic nuclei selected in the mid-infrared

We present the results of a program of optical and near-infrared spectroscopic follow-up of candidate active galactic nuclei (AGNs) selected in the mid-infrared. This survey selects both normal and obscured AGNs closely matched in luminosity across a wide range, from Seyfert galaxies with bolometric...
