On the Origin of the Strong Optical Variability of Emission-line Galaxies
Ruqiu Lin, Zhen-Ya Zheng, Weida Hu +9
Emission-line galaxies (ELGs) are crucial in understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies, while little is known about their variability. Here we report the study on the o…
Compact and variable radio emission from an active galaxy with supersoft X-ray emission
Lei Yang, Xinwen Shu, Fabao Zhang +15
RX J1301.9+2747 is a unique active galaxy with supersoft X-ray spectrum that lacks significant emission at energies above 2 keV. In addition, it is one of few galaxies displaying q…
Broad Emission and Absorption Line Outflows in the Quasar SDSS J163345.22+512748.4

We present a detailed study of the optical and NIR emission and absorption line spectrum of the quasar SDSS J163345.22+512748.4. We discovered on the newly acquired NIR spectrum a…
The 2175 Å~ Bump Features in FeLoBAL Quasars: One Indicator of MW-like Dust in the Nuclear Region of Quasar
Shaohua Zhang, Jian Ge, Tuo Ji +8
To investigate the properties of dust in the nuclear region of quasars, we explored the extinction curves of the iron low-ionization broad absorption line (FeLoBAL) quasar SDSS J16…
Feeding the Accretion Disk from the Dusty Torus in a Reddened Quasar
Ge Li, Xiheng Shi, Qiguo Tian +4
We present here a detailed analysis of an unusual absorption line system in the quasar SDSS J122826.79+100532.2. The absorption lines in the system have a common redshifted velocit…
Mid-InfraRed Outbursts in Nearby Galaxies (MIRONG). II. Optical Spectroscopic Follow-up
Yibo Wang, Ning Jiang, Tinggui Wang +8
Infrared echo has proven to be an effective means to discover transient accretion events of supermassive black holes (SMBHs), such as tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing-lo…
Evidence of a tidal disruption event in GSN 069 from the abnormal carbon and nitrogen abundance ratio
Zhenfeng Sheng, Tinggui Wang, Gary Ferland +4
GSN 069 is an ultra-soft X-ray active galactic nucleus that previously exhibited a huge X-ray outburst and a subsequent long-term decay. It has recently presented X-ray quasi-perio…
MMS direct observations of kinetic-scale shock self-reformation
Zhongwei Yang, Ying D. Liu, Andreas Johlander +6
Studies of shocks have long suggested that a shock can undergo cyclically self-reformation in a time scale of ion cyclotron period. This process has been proposed as a primary mech…
