Testing Colour-magnitude Pattern as A Method in the Search for Changing-Look AGNs

Li-tao Zhu, Zhongxiang Wang, P. U. Devanand +6

We develop a simple method to search for changing-look (CL) active galactic nucleus (AGN) candidates, and conduct a test run. In this method, optical variations of AGNs are monitor…

Moving Groups in the Solar Neighborhood with Gaia, APOGEE, GALAH, and LAMOST: Dynamical Effects Gather Gas and the Ensuing Star Formation Plays an Important Role in Shaping the Stellar Velocity Distributions

Xilong Liang, Suk-Jin Yoon, Jingkun Zhao

With Gaia, APOGEE, GALAH, and LAMOST data, we investigate the positional, kinematic, chemical, and age properties of nine moving groups in the solar neighborhood. We find that each…

Velocity-Resolved Ionization Mapping of Broad Line Region. I. Insights into Diverse Geometry and Kinematics

Sha-Sha Li, Hai-Cheng Feng, H. T. Liu +6

Broad emission lines of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) originate from the broad-line region (BLR), consisting of dense gas clouds in orbit around an accreting supermassive black hol…

A high-velocity star recently ejected by an intermediate-mass black hole in M15

Yang Huang, Qingzheng Li, Jifeng Liu +4

The existence of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) is crucial for understanding various astrophysical phenomena, yet their existence remains elusive, except for the LIGO-Virgo…

CSST large-scale structure analysis pipeline: I. constructing reference mock galaxy redshift surveys

Yizhou Gu, Xiaohu Yang, Jiaxin Han +29

In this paper, we set out to construct a set of reference mock galaxy redshift surveys (MGRSs) for the future Chinese Space-station Survey Telescope (CSST) observation, where subse…

On the Scarcity of Dense Cores ( cm) in High Latitude Planck Galactic Cold Clumps

Fengwei Xu, Ke Wang, Tie Liu +34

High-latitude () molecular clouds have virial parameters that exceed 1, but whether these clouds can form stars has not been studied systematically. Using JCMT SCUB…

Measuring the Virial Factor in SDSS DR7 AGNs with Redshifted H and H Broad Emission Lines

H. T. Liu, Hai-Cheng Feng, Sha-Sha Li +2

Under the hypothesis of gravitational redshift induced by the central supermassive black hole, and based on line widths and shifts of redward shifted H and H broad emission l…
