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…

Orientation and accretion in a representative sample of active galactic nuclei

Jessie Runnoe, Todd Boroson

We highlight a representative sample of active galactic nuclei selected independent of orientation. The defining characteristic of the selection is sophisticated matching between t…

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…

Strategic Scientific Plan for Gemini Observatory

J. P. Blakeslee, A. Adamson, C. Davis +30

We present the Strategic Scientific Plan (SSP) for the direction and activities of the Gemini Observatory in the 2020s. The overarching goal is to ensure that Gemini best uses the…

Emission Signatures from Sub-parsec Binary Supermassive Black Holes III: Comparison of Models with Observations

Khai Nguyen, Tamara Bogdanovic, Jessie C. Runnoe +3

We present a method for comparing the H emission-line profiles of observed supermassive black hole (SBHB) candidates and models of sub-parsec SBHBs in circumbinary disks. Using…

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…
