On the Probability Distribution and Null-hypothesis Testing of Cross-correlation for Light Curves in Active Galactic Nuclei

Yan-Rong Li, Jian-Min Wang

Cross-correlation is crucial in studies of multiwavelength flux variability in active galactic nuclei (AGNs), especially for reverberation mapping analysis, where interpolated cros…

Nitrogen-Loud Quasars from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. I. Sample Selection and Basic Properties

Shuo Zhai, Wei-Jian Guo, Yong-Jie Chen +4

We present the largest sample to date of nitrogen-loud (N-loud) quasars with strong broad N IV] and/or N III] emission lines over the redshift range $1.…

Observations of a Possible Transient Magnetically Arrested Accretion State in a Nearby Quasar: OQ208

Brian Punsly, Cormac Reynolds, Paola Marziani +12

OQ208 is a nearby, partially obscured quasar (z=0.077) that is a young, bright, parsec scale radio source. We assemble archival and new high frequency VLBA and VLA observations and…

Supermassive Black Holes with High Accretion Rates in Active Galactic Nuclei. XV. Reverberation Mapping of Mg II Emission Lines

Hua-Rui Bai, Pu Du, Chen Hu +25

As the 15th paper in a series reporting on a large reverberation mapping (RM) campaign of super-Eddington accreting massive black holes (SEAMBHs) in active galactic nuclei (AGNs),…

Chemical evolution of bulges of active galactic nuclei in the early Universe: roles of accreting stars

Shuo Zhai, Jian-Min Wang, Yan-Rong Li +2

JWST/NIRCam observations reveal dense stellar cores in high-redshift galactic bulges, indicative of sustained star formation and potential stellar accretion. We introduce accretion…

Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. IV. Broad Emission Line Evolution Sequence Among Hα, Mg II, and Hβ

Wei-Jian Guo, Victoria A. Fawcett, Małgorzata Siudek +15

From a parent catalog of 561 changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) identified by Guo et al. (2025), we investigate the evolutionary sequence of broad emission lines using…
