AGN Variability in the UKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey

One of the defining characteristics of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is the variations observed in their fluxes. In this thesis, we present the first attempt to select AGN using long-term near-infrared (NIR) variability. By analysing the K-band light curves of all the galaxies in the UKIDSS Ultra Dee...
