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…
