UV/Optical disk reverberation lags despite a faint X-ray corona in the AGN Mrk 335
Erin Kara, Aaron J. Barth, Edward M. Cackett +37
We present the first results from a 100-day Swift, NICER and ground-based X-ray/UV/optical reverberation mapping campaign of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Mrk 335, when it was in an un…
XSLIDE (X-Ray Spectral Line IDentifier and Explorer): a quick-look tool for XRISM
Efrem Braun, Chris Baluta, Trisha F. Doyle +7
We present XSLIDE (X-Ray Spectral Line IDentifier and Explorer), a graphical user interface that has been designed as a quick-look tool for the upcoming X-Ray Imaging and Spectrosc…
The XRISM Pipeline Software System: Connecting Continents, Processes, Testing, and Scientists
Trisha F. Doyle, Matthew P. Holland, Robert S. Hill +6
XRISM (X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission), with the Resolve high-resolution spectrometer and the Xtend wide-field imager on-board, is designed to build on the successes of the…
Evolution of a Relativistic Outflow and X-ray Corona in the Extreme Changing-Look AGN 1ES 1927+654
Megan Masterson, Erin Kara, Claudio Ricci +8
1ES 1927+654 is a paradigm-defying AGN and one of the most peculiar X-ray nuclear transients. In early 2018, this well-known AGN underwent a changing-look event, in which broad opt…
Detailed Design of the Science Operations for the XRISM mission
Yukikatsu Terada, Matt Holland, Michael Loewenstein +36
XRISM is an X-ray astronomical mission by the JAXA, NASA, ESA and other international participants, that is planned for launch in 2022 (Japanese fiscal year), to quickly restore hi…
An Empirical Background Model for the NICER X-ray Timing Instrument
Ronald A. Remillard, Michael Loewenstein, James F. Steiner +11
NICER has a comparatively low background rate, but it is highly variable, and its spectrum must be predicted using measurements unaffected by the science target. We describe an emp…
