Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project VI: reverberating Disk Models for NGC 5548

D. Starkey, Keith Horne, M. M. Fausnaugh +90

We conduct a multiwavelength continuum variability study of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548 to investigate the temperature structure of its accretion disk. The 19 overlapping continu…

Magnetohydrodynamic DiscWinds and LineWidth Distributions.II

L. S. Chajet, P. B. Hall

We study AGN emission line profiles combining an improved version of the accretion disc-wind model of Murray & Chiang with the magneto-hydrodynamic model of Emmering et al. (1992).…

The rest-frame optical (900nm) galaxy luminosity function at z~4-7: abundance matching points to limited evolution in the Mstar/Mhalo ratio at z>4

Mauro Stefanon, Rychard J. Bouwens, Ivo Labbé +4

We present the first determination of the galaxy luminosity function (LF) at z~4, 5, 6 and 7 in the rest-frame optical at lambda_rest~900 nm (z' band). The rest-frame optical light…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog: twelfth data release

Isabelle Pâris, Patrick Petitjean, Nicholas P. Ross +43

We present the Data Release 12 Quasar catalog (DR12Q) from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the SDSS-III. This catalog includes all SDSS-III/BOSS objects that…

A spectroscopic follow-up program of very massive galaxies at 3<z<4: confirmation of spectroscopic redshifts, and a high fraction of powerful AGN

Z. Cemile Marsan, Danilo Marchesini, Gabriel B. Brammer +5

We present the analysis and results of a spectroscopic follow-up program of a mass-selected sample of six galaxies at 3 < z < 4 using data from Keck-NIRSPEC and VLT-Xshooter. We co…

CIV Broad Absorption Line Acceleration in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasars

C. J. Grier, W. N. Brandt, P. B. Hall +10

We present results from the largest systematic investigation of broad absorption line (BAL) acceleration to date. We use spectra of 140 quasars from three Sloan Digital Sky Survey…

Vanishing Absorption and Blueshifted Emission in FeLoBAL Quasars

Alireza Rafiee, Patrik Pirkola, Patrick B. Hall +3

We study the dramatic decrease in iron absorption strength in the iron low-ionization broad absorption line quasar SDSS J084133.15+200525.8. We report on the continued weakening of…

Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. IV. Anomalous behavior of the broad ultraviolet emission lines in NGC 5548

M. R. Goad, K. T. Korista, G. De Rosa +99

During an intensive Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) UV monitoring campaign of the Seyfert~1 galaxy NGC 5548 performed from 2014 February to July, the…
