Multi-wavelength campaign on NGC7469 II. Column densities and variability in the X-ray spectrum
U. Peretz, E. Behar, G. A. Kriss +16
We investigate the ionic column density variability of the ionized outflows associated with NGC7469, to estimate their location and power. This could allow a better understan…
Exploratory X-ray Monitoring of Luminous Radio-Quiet Quasars at High Redshift: No Evidence for Evolution in X-ray Variability
Ohad Shemmer, W. N. Brandt, Maurizio Paolillo +4
We report on the second installment of an X-ray monitoring project of seven luminous radio-quiet quasars (RQQs). New {\sl Chandra} observations of four of these, at $4.10\leq z\leq…
Chasing obscuration in type-I AGN: discovery of an eclipsing clumpy wind at the outer broad-line region of NGC 3783
M. Mehdipour, J. S. Kaastra, G. A. Kriss +21
In 2016 we carried out a Swift monitoring program to track the X-ray hardness variability of eight type-I AGN over a year. The purpose of this monitoring was to find intense obscur…
Automatized photometric monitoring of active galactic nuclei with the 46 cm telescope of the Wise observatory
F. Pozo Nuñez, D. Chelouche, S. Kaspi +1
We present the first results of an ongoing variability monitoring program of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using the 46\,cm telescope of the Wise observatory in Israel. The telesco…
Study of the plutino object (208996) 2003 AZ84 from stellar occultations: size, shape and topographic features
A. Dias-Oliveira, B. Sicardy, J. L. Ortiz +60
We present results derived from four stellar occultations by the plutino object (208996) 2003~AZ, detected at January 8, 2011 (single-chord event), February 3, 2012 (multi-c…
MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb: A Massive Planet Characterized by Combining Lightcurve Analysis and Keck AO Imaging
Naoki Koshimoto, Yossi Shvartzvald, David Bennett +55
We report the discovery of a microlensing planet --- MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb --- with a large planet/host mass ratio of . This event was located near the …
