Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry. V. Long-term Variation and Evolution of the Broad H Emission-Line Profiles

Feng-Na Fang, Pu Du, Michael S. Brotherton +40

The physical origins of the diverse emission-line asymmetries observed in the spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remain incompletely understood. Monitoring the temporal varia…

Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry. IV. First Reverberation Mapping Results of 14 AGNs

T. E. Zastrocky, Michael S. Brotherton, Pu Du +41

We report first-time reverberation mapping results for 14 AGNs from the ongoing Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry campaign (MAHA). These results utilize optical spectra obtained…

Monitoring AGNs with Hβ Asymmetry. II. Reverberation Mapping of Three Seyfert Galaxies Historically Displaying Hβ Profiles with Changing Asymmetry: Mrk 79, NGC 3227, and Mrk 841

Michael S. Brotherton, Pu Du, Ming Xiao +17

We report the results of reverberation mapping three bright Seyfert galaxies, Mrk 79, NGC 3227, and Mrk 841, from a campaign conducted from December 2016 to May 2017 with the Wyomi…

Investigating orientation effects considering angular resolution for a sample of radio-loud quasars using VLA observations

Jaya Maithil, Jessie C. Runnoe, Michael S. Brotherton +4

Radio core dominance measurements, an indicator of jet orientation, sometimes rely on core flux density measurements from large-area surveys like Faint Images of the Radio Sky at T…

Monitoring AGNs with Hβ Asymmetry. I. First Results: Velocity-resolved Reverberation Mapping

Pu Du, Michael S. Brotherton, Kai Wang +12

We have started a long-term reverberation mapping project using the Wyoming Infrared Observatory 2.3 meter telescope titled "Monitoring AGNs with Hβ Asymmetry" (MAHA). The motivati…
