The Success of Optical Variability in Uncovering AGNs in Low-stellar Mass Galaxies

S. Bernal, P. Sánchez-Sáez, P. Arévalo +3

We used random forest algorithms to classify all objects in a large portion of the sky, using optical light curves obtained, or built from images provided, by the Zwicky Transient…

Investigating Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei with Long-term Optical and X-Ray Observations

A. Jana, C. Ricci, M. J. Temple +7

Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CLAGNs) show the appearance and disappearance of broad emission lines in their UV/optical spectra on timescales of months to decades. Here, we…

Supernova Shocks in Molecular Clouds: Shocks Driven into Dense Cores in IC 443 and 3C 391

William T. Reach, Ngoc Le Tram, Curtis DeWitt +3

Supernova shocks into dense molecular cores in IC 443 (clumps B, C, and G) and 3C 391 were observed using the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy and complemented by a…

The Density and Ionization Profile of Optically Dark and High Redshift GRBs Probed by X-ray Absorption

Eka Puspita Arumaningtyas, Hasan Al Rasyid, Maria Giovanna Dainotti +1

The X-ray column density (NHX) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can probe the local environment of their progenitors over a wide redshift range. Previous work has suggested an increasing…

The NuSTAR Local AGN Distribution Survey (NuLANDS) I: Towards a Truly Representative Column Density Distribution in the Local Universe

Peter G. Boorman, Poshak Gandhi, Johannes Buchner +33

Hard X-ray-selected samples of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) provide one of the cleanest views of supermassive black hole accretion, but are biased against objects obscured by Compt…

SOFIA/EXES observations of warm H2 at high spectral resolution: II. IC443C, NGC2071, and 3C391

David A. Neufeld, Curtis DeWitt, Pierre Lesaffre +4

Using the EXES instrument on SOFIA, we have obtained velocity-resolved spectra of several pure rotational lines of H2 toward shocked molecular gas within three Galactic sources: th…

Bright-rimmed clouds in IC 1396 I. Dynamics

Yoko Okada, Slawa Kabanovic, Rolf Güsten +14

We investigate the dynamical and physical structures of bright-rimmed clouds (BRCs) in a nearby HII region. We focused on carbon- and oxygen-bearing species that trace photon-domin…

SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a black hole

P. Sánchez-Sáez, L. Hernández-García, S. Bernal +22

The galaxy SDSS1335+0728, which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Fa…

Ensemble power spectral density of SDSS quasars in UV/optical bands

Vincenzo Petrecca, Iossif Papadakis, Maurizio Paolillo +2

Context: Quasar variability has proven to be a powerful tool to constrain the properties of their inner engine and the accretion process onto supermassive black holes. Correlations…

JWST observations of CO ice: Tracing the chemical environment and thermal history of ices in protostellar envelopes

Nashanty G. C. Brunken, Will R. M. Rocha, Ewine F. van Dishoeck +38

The structure and composition of simple ices can be modified during stellar evolution by protostellar heating. Key to understanding the involved processes are thermal and chemical…

The cold interstellar medium of a normal sub- galaxy at the end of reionization

F. Valentino, S. Fujimoto, C. Giménez-Arteaga +21

We present the results of a ~60-hr observational campaign with ALMA targeting a spectroscopically confirmed and lensed sub- galaxy at z=6.07, identified during the ALMA Le…

On the magnetic field properties of protostellar envelopes in Orion

Bo Huang, Josep M. Girart, Ian W. Stephens +23

We present 870 um polarimetric observations toward 61 protostars in the Orion molecular clouds, with ~400 au (1") resolution using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array.…
