AT2019cmw: A highly luminous, cooling featureless TDE candidate from the disruption of a high mass star in an early-type galaxy
Jacob L. Wise, Daniel A. Perley, Nikhil Sarin +23
We present optical/UV photometric and spectroscopic observations, as well as X-ray and radio follow-up, of the extraordinary event AT2019cmw. With a peak bolometric luminosity of ~…
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…
The SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper Reverberation Mapping Project: Unusual Broad-Line Variability in a Luminous Quasar
Logan B. Fries, Jonathan R. Trump, Megan C. Davis +30
We present a high-cadence multi-epoch analysis of dramatic variability of three broad emission lines (MgII, H, and H) in the spectra of the luminous quasar ((5100Å) = $…
The Eighteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Targeting and First Spectra from SDSS-V
Andrés Almeida, Scott F. Anderson, Maria Argudo-Fernández +151
The eighteenth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys (SDSS) is the first one for SDSS-V, the fifth generation of the survey. SDSS-V comprises three primary scientific progr…
The Final Season Reimagined: 30 Tidal Disruption Events from the ZTF-I Survey
Erica Hammerstein, Sjoert van Velzen, Suvi Gezari +30
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) offer a unique way to study dormant black holes. While the number of observed TDEs has grown thanks to the emergence of wide-field surveys in the pas…
