The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: the XMM-Newton X-ray source catalog and multi-band counterparts

Teng Liu, Andrea Merloni, Torben Simm +10

The XMM-RM project was designed to provide X-ray coverage of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) field. 41 XMM-Newton exposures, placed surrounding the Cha…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Accretion and Broad Emission Line Physics from a Hypervariable Quasar

Jason Dexter, Shuo Xin, Yue Shen +18

We analyze extensive spectroscopic and photometric data of the hypervariable quasar SDSS J131424+530527 (RMID 017) at z=0.456, an optical "changing look" quasar from the Sloan Digi…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Sample Characterization

Yue Shen, Patrick B. Hall, Keith Horne +24

We present a detailed characterization of the 849 broad-line quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) project. Our quasar sample covers a redshift…

Dramatic X-ray spectral variability of a Compton-thick type-1 QSO at

Torben Simm, Johannes Buchner, Andrea Merloni +6

We report on the discovery of a dramatic X-ray spectral variability event observed in a broad line type-1 QSO. The XMM-Newton spectrum from the year 2000 is characterized…

SPIDERS: Selection of spectroscopic targets using AGN candidates detected in all-sky X-ray surveys

T. Dwelly, M. Salvato, A. Merloni +19

SPIDERS (SPectroscopic IDentification of eROSITA Sources) is an SDSS-IV survey running in parallel to the eBOSS cosmology project. SPIDERS will obtain optical spectroscopy for larg…

Pan-STARRS1 variability of XMM-COSMOS AGN. II. Physical correlations and power spectrum analysis

T. Simm, M. Salvato, R. Saglia +4

[Abbreviated] We search for scaling relations between the fundamental AGN parameters and rest-frame UV/optical variability properties for a sample of 90 X-ray selected AGNs c…

Pan-STARRS1 variability of XMM-COSMOS AGN. I. Impact on photometric redshifts

T. Simm, R. Saglia, M. Salvato +12

[Abbreviated] Upcoming large area sky surveys like EUCLID and eROSITA crucially depend on accurate photometric redshifts (photo-z). The identification of variable sources, such as…
