The birth of young radio jets in changing-look AGN: a population study

Sufia Birmingham, Charlotte Ward, Kristina Nyland +4

Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei (CLAGN) are a rare subset of AGN that show significant changes to the flux of broad Balmer emission lines. Recent studies of CLAGN, such as 1ES…

A Massive Black Hole 0.8 kpc from the Host Nucleus Revealed by the Offset Tidal Disruption Event AT2024tvd

Yuhan Yao, Ryan Chornock, Charlotte Ward +31

Tidal disruption events (TDEs) that are spatially offset from the nuclei of their host galaxies offer a new probe of massive black hole (MBH) wanderers, binaries, triples, and reco…

Joint Modeling of Quasar Variability and Accretion Disk Reprocessing using Latent Stochastic Differential Equations

Joshua Fagin, James Hung-Hsu Chan, Henry Best +5

Quasars are bright active galactic nuclei powered by the accretion of matter around supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies. Their stochastic brightness variability depe…

Exploring Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V: First Year Results

Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +32

"Changing-look" active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) challenge our basic ideas about the physics of accretion flows and circumnuclear gas around supermassive black holes. Using first-y…

Panic at the ISCO: time-varying double-peaked broad lines from evolving accretion disks are common amongst optically variable AGN

Charlotte Ward, Suvi Gezari, Peter Nugent +12

About 3-10\% of Type I active galactic nuclei (AGN) have double-peaked broad Balmer lines in their optical spectra originating from the motion of gas in their accretion disk. Doubl…

A Mid-IR Selected Changing-Look Quasar and Physical Scenarios for Abrupt AGN Fading

Daniel Stern, Barry McKernan, Matthew J. Graham +11

We report a new changing-look quasar, WISE~J105203.55+151929.5 at , found by identifying highly mid-IR variable quasars in the WISE/NEOWISE data stream. Compared to multi-…
