The Optical Properties of PKS 1222+216 During the Fermi Mission

P. S. Smith, G. D. Schmidt, B. T. Jannuzi

The optical properties of the z = 0.435 quasar PKS 1222+216 (4C+21.35) are summarized since the discovery of impressive gamma-ray activity in this source by Fermi/LAT. Unlike sever…

PCA of the spectral energy distribution and emission line properties of red 2MASS AGN

Joanna Kuraszkiewicz, Belinda J. Wilkes, Gary Schmidt +3

We analyze the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and emission line properties of the red (J-K > 2) 2MASS AGN observed by Chandra using principle component analysis. The samp…

The Spectral Energy Distributions of Red 2MASS AGN

Joanna Kuraszkiewicz, Belinda J. Wilkes, Gary Schmidt +7

We present infrared (IR) to X-ray spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 44 red AGN selected from the 2MASS survey on the basis of their red J-K color (>2 mag) and later obse…

XMM-NEWTON Observations of Red AGN

B. J. Wilkes, K. A. Pounds, G. D. Schmidt +5

XMM-Newton spectra of five red, 2MASS AGN, selected from a sample observed by Chandra to be relatively X-ray bright and to cover a range of hardness ratios, confirm the presence of…

Variation in the Scattering Shroud Surrounding Markarian 231

S. C. Gallagher, Gary D. Schmidt, Paul S. Smith +5

We present a detailed study of the nuclear structure of the highly polarized broad absorption line quasar, Mrk 231, through a multiwavelength campaign of Chandra observations, opti…
