A NEW INFRARED COLOR CRITERION FOR THE SELECTION OF 0 &lt;<i>z</i>&lt; 7 AGNs: APPLICATION TO DEEP FIELDS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR<i>JWST</i>SURVEYS

[Abridged] It is widely accepted that observations at mid-infrared (mid-IR) wavelengths enable the selection of galaxies with nuclear activity, which may not be revealed even in the deepest X-ray surveys. In this work new near- and mid-IR color diagnostics are explored, aiming for improved efficiency - better completeness and less …
