DeepDISC-photoz: Deep Learning-Based Photometric Redshift Estimation for Rubin LSST

Grant Merz, Xin Liu, Samuel Schmidt +11

Photometric redshifts will be a key data product for the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) as well as for future ground and space-based surveys. The need for…

The redshift evolution of the scaling relation: new insights from cosmological simulations and semi-analytic models

Shashank Dattathri, Priyamvada Natarajan, Antonio J. Porras-Valverde +4

We study the co-evolution of black holes (BHs) and their host galaxies in the ASTRID and Illustris-TNG300 cosmological simulations and the Dark Sage Semi-Analytic Model (SAM), focu…

Multi-wavelength constraints on the local black hole occupation fraction

Colin J. Burke, Priyamvada Natarajan, Vivienne F. Baldassare +1

The fraction of dwarf galaxies hosting central, intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) at low redshifts is an important observational probe of black hole seeding at high redshift. D…

Prior-Informed AGN-Host Spectral Decomposition Using PyQSOFit

Wenke Ren, Hengxiao Guo, Yue Shen +4

We introduce an improved method for decomposing the emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies using templates from principal component analysis (PCA). This a…

High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) with DECam

Ming-Yang Zhuang, Qian Yang, Yue Shen +45

High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) is a long-term observing program that photometrically monitors several well-studied extragalactic legacy fields with the D…

DAVOS: Dwarf Active Galactic Nuclei from Variability for the Origins of Seeds: Properties of Variability-Selected Active Galactic Nuclei in the COSMOS Field and Expectations for the Rubin Observatory

Colin J. Burke, Yichen Liu, Charlotte A. Ward +3

We study the black hole mass host galaxy stellar mass relation, , of a sample of optically-variable AGNs in the COSMOS field. The parent sample of 4…
