VAR-PZnn: A machine-learning framework for AGN photometric redshifts using color and variability-based features
S. Satheesh-Sheeba, P. Sánchez-Sáez, R. J. Assef +39
Photometric redshift estimation for active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remains a fundamental challenge for current and upcoming large-scale photometric surveys. Traditional spectral ene…
The Multi-phase Biconical Outflow in the local IR-Luminous Merger IRASF01364-1042
Y. Song, V. U, J. Kader +37
We investigate the spatially-resolved ISM properties of the local (), IR-luminous (\,L), late-stage galaxy merger IRAS F01364-1042, comb…
VAR-PZ: Constraining the Photometric Redshifts of Quasars using Variability
S. Satheesh-Sheeba, R. J. Assef, T. Anguita +33
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST is expected to discover tens of millions of new Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). The survey's exceptional cadence and sensitivity will enable UV/op…
Radio-Near Infrared Imaging of Dual Active Galactic Nuclei Candidates
Makoto A. Johnstone, Ilsang Yoon, Emmanuel Momjian +13
We report the results of a pilot study that searched for dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) in local (0.25) galaxies hosting double-peaked narrow emission lines in their optical…
Predicting Quasar Counts Detectable in the LSST Survey
Guodong Li, Roberto J. Assef, W. N. Brandt +11
The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), being conducted by the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, is a wide-field multi-band survey that will revolutionize our understanding of extraga…
Scalable and Robust Multiband Modeling of AGN Light Curves in Rubin-LSST
Weixiang Yu, John J. Ruan, Colin J. Burke +22
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will monitor tens of millions of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) for a period of 10 years with an average caden…
