Pushing Variability Searches to Extreme Dwarf Galaxies with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 2
Fan Zou, W. N. Brandt, Elena Gallo +15
Galaxies with stellar masses , hereafter referred to as extreme dwarf galaxies (EDGs), represent one of the least explored regimes in the search for accreting…
Multi-epoch Detection of an Ultra-fast Inflow in ESP 39607: Evidence for an Accretion Cascade
Alessandro Peca, Michael J. Koss, Roberto Serafinelli +10
We present simultaneous XRISM, XMM-Newton, and NuSTAR observations of ESP 39607, a Seyfert 2 galaxy at . XRISM/Resolve reveals two absorption features near 4.7 and 4.9 k…
Super-Eddington Accretion and Early-Stage Feedback in Ton S180
Pierpaolo Condò, Giacomo Venturi, Eleonora Parlanti +15
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies are key laboratories for studying rapid supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback at high accretion ra…
Relativistic outflows power a quasi-periodic eruption: constraints on energetics, mass loss, and emission mechanisms
Joheen Chakraborty, Erin Kara, Wenbin Lu +17
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurring bursts of X-ray radiation originating from supermassive black holes (SMBHs). They are an unprecedented type of structured, high-amplit…
The emergence of X-ray emission lines during relativistic radio-jet formation in the changing-look active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654
Dev R. Sadaula, Sibasish Laha, Eileen T. Meyer +27
We present results from a comprehensive multi-wavelength monitoring campaign of the changing-look active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654 during the onset and evolution of a relativis…
Extreme Variability Reveals How the Eddington Ratio Regulates Coronal Power in Active Galactic Nuclei
Arghajit Jana, Claudio Ricci, Franz E. Bauer +13
The bolometric luminosity () of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is a key tracer of accretion physics, but its direct determination is often hindered by limited spectral…
The SKA-VLBI Perspective on Radio-Quiet AGN
Francesca Panessa, Tao An, James Petley +21
The accretion-ejection mechanism in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) remains a central open problem in astrophysics, tied to the role of AGN feedback in galaxy formation and evolution.…
Population synthesis of active galactic nuclei based on the radiation-regulated unification model
D. Gerolymatou, S. Paltani, C. Ricci +1
X-ray surveys of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) provide direct constraints on the properties of individual AGNs, such as their emission, obscuration, and accretion rate. Previous AG…
Resolved UV-Optical HST Imaging and Spectral Energy Distribution Modeling of Nearby BAT Active Galactic Nuclei
Connor Auge, Michael Koss, Kriti K. Gupta +17
We use high-resolution UV-to-optical imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to construct spatially resolved spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for seven nearby ()…
Persistence of the Millihertz X-ray Quasi-Periodic Oscillation in the Active Galactic Nucleus 1ES 1927+654
Megan Masterson, Erin Kara, William N. Alston +15
1ES 1927+654 is an extreme active galactic nucleus (AGN) that has defied our canonical expectations for how AGN appear across the electromagnetic spectrum and how they vary on shor…
BASS. LI. Cool gas supply of HI-massive local Seyfert galaxies
Jeein Kim, Aeree Chung, O. Ivy Wong +19
We present neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) imaging observations of 22 HI-rich (), hard X-ray-selected local Seyferts to explore how cool gas is su…
A positive period derivative in the quasi-periodic eruptions of ZTF19acnskyy
Joheen Chakraborty, Saul A. Rappaport, Riccardo Arcodia +9
We report the first direct measurement of the period derivative in a quasi-periodic eruption (QPE), finding a smoothly increasing period with $\dot{P}\approx (1.7\pm 0.02)\times10^…
Multi-wavelength properties of changing-state active galactic nuclei: I. the evolution of soft excess and X-ray continuum
Arghajit Jana, Claudio Ricci, Alessia Tortosa +11
Changing-state active galactic nuclei (CSAGNs) exhibit rapid variability, with mass accretion rates that can change by several orders of magnitude in a few years. This provides us…
