New Ionization Models and the Shocking Nitrogen Excess at z > 5

Sophia R. Flury, Karla Z. Arellano-Córdova, Edward C. Moran +1

The new era of galaxy evolution studies hearkened in by JWST has led to the discovery of z > 5 galaxies exhibiting excess nitrogen with log(N/O)~1 dex or more than expected from lo…

Structural Decomposition of Merger-Free Galaxies Hosting Luminous AGNs

Matthew J. Fahey, Izzy. L. Garland, Brooke. D. Simmons +10

Active galactic nucleus (AGN) growth in disk-dominated, merger-free galaxies is poorly understood, largely due to the difficulty in disentangling the AGN emission from that of the…

Galactic Outflow Emission Line Profiles: Evidence for Dusty, Radiatively-Driven Ionized Winds in Mrk 462

Sophia R. Flury, Edward C. Moran, Miriam Eleazer

Over the past half century, gas outflows and winds have been observed as asymmetric emission lines in a wide range of astrophysical contexts, including galaxies and early-type star…

Chemical Abundances in Active Galaxies

Sophia R. Flury, Edward C. Moran

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has proved to be a powerful resource for understanding the physical properties and chemical composition of star-forming galaxies in the local un…

The Discovery of the First "Changing Look" Quasar: New Insights into the Physics & Phenomenology of AGN

Stephanie M. LaMassa, Sabrina Cales, Edward C. Moran +6

SDSS J015957.64+003310.5 is an X-ray selected, AGN from the Stripe 82X survey that transitioned from a Type 1 quasar to a Type 1.9 AGN between 2000 and 2010. This is the m…

Black Holes at the Centers of Nearby Dwarf Galaxies

Edward C. Moran, Karlen Shahinyan, Hannah R. Sugarman +2

Using a distance-limited portion of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7, we have identified 28 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in nearby (d < 80 Mpc) low-mass, low-lum…
