Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. XII. Broad-Line Region Modeling of NGC 5548
P. R. Williams, A. Pancoast, T. Treu +155
We present geometric and dynamical modeling of the broad line region for the multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign focused on NGC 5548 in 2014. The dataset includes photo…
Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. IX. Velocity-Delay Maps for Broad Emission Lines in NGC 5548
Keith Horne, G. De Rosa, B. M. Peterson +155
We report velocity-delay maps for prominent broad emission lines, Ly_alpha, CIV, HeII and H_beta, in the spectrum of NGC5548. The emission-line responses inhabit the interior of a…
Accretion Disk Size Measurement and Time Delays in the Lensed Quasar WFI 2033-4723
Christopher W. Morgan, Gregory E. Hyer, Vivien Bonvin +5
We present 13 seasons of -band photometry of the quadruply-lensed quasar WFI 2033-4723 from the 1.3m SMARTS telescope at CTIO and the 1.2m Euler Swiss Telescope at La Silla, in…
Velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of five bright Seyfert 1 galaxies
G. De Rosa, M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier +99
We present the first results from a reverberation-mapping campaign undertaken during the first half of 2012, with additional data on one AGN (NGC 3227) from a 2014 campaign. Our ma…
Continuum Reverberation Mapping of the Accretion Disks in Two Seyfert 1 Galaxies
M. M. Fausnaugh, D. A. Starkey, Keith Horne +69
We present optical continuum lags for two Seyfert 1 galaxies, MCG+08-11-011 and NGC 2617, using monitoring data from a reverberation mapping campaign carried out in 2014. Our light…
Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. VII. Understanding the UV anomaly in NGC 5548 with X-Ray Spectroscopy
S. Mathur, A. Gupta, K. Page +147
During the Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project (STORM) observations of NGC 5548, the continuum and emission-line variability became de-correlated during the s…
Reverberation Mapping of Optical Emission Lines in Five Active Galaxies
M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier, M. C. Bentz +68
We present the first results from an optical reverberation mapping campaign executed in 2014, targeting the active galactic nuclei (AGN) MCG+08-11-011, NGC 2617, NGC 4051, 3C 382,…
The SDSS-III BOSS quasar lens survey: discovery of thirteen gravitationally lensed quasars
Anupreeta More, Masamune Oguri, Issha Kayo +15
We report the discovery of 13 confirmed two-image quasar lenses from a systematic search for gravitationally lensed quasars in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey…
Structure of the Accretion Disk in the Lensed Quasar Q2237+0305 from Multi-Epoch and Multi-Wavelength Narrow Band Photometry
J. A. Munoz, H. Vives-Arias, A. M. Mosquera +3
We present estimates for the size and the logarithmic slope of the disk temperature profile of the lensed quasar Q2237+0305, independent of the component velocities. These estimate…
A Consistent Picture Emerges: A Compact X-ray Continuum Emission Region in the Gravitationally Lensed Quasar SDSS J0924+0219
Chelsea L. MacLeod, Christopher Morgan, A. Mosquera +7
We analyze the optical, UV, and X-ray microlensing variability of the lensed quasar SDSS J0924+0219 using six epochs of Chandra data in two energy bands (spanning 0.4-8.0 keV, or 1…
Reverberation Mapping of the Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 7469
B. M. Peterson, C. J. Grier, Keith Horne +43
A large reverberation mapping study of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469 has yielded emission-line lags for Hbeta 4861 and He II 4686 and a central black hole mass measurement of about…
