Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in SDSS-V: Host-Galaxy Properties and Black-Hole Scaling Relations

Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +23

Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) exhibit dramatic spectral variability on unexpectedly short timescales, challenging standard accretion flow models. Despite growing s…

The SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper Reverberation Mapping Project: Light Echoes of the Coronal Line Region in a Luminous Quasar

Theodore B. Smith, Logan B. Fries, Jonathan R. Trump +19

We present a reverberation mapping analysis of the coronal line [Ne V]3427 emitting region of the quasar COS168 (SDSS J095910.30+020732.2). [Ne V]3427 is known as one of the…

VAR-PZ: Constraining the Photometric Redshifts of Quasars using Variability

S. Satheesh-Sheeba, R. J. Assef, T. Anguita +33

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST is expected to discover tens of millions of new Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). The survey's exceptional cadence and sensitivity will enable UV/op…

X-ray selected broad absorption line quasars in SDSS-V: BALs and non-BALs span the same range of X-ray properties

Pranavi Hiremath, Amy L. Rankine, James Aird +10

Broad absorption line (BAL) quasars are often considered X-ray weak relative to their optical/UV luminosity, whether intrinsically (i.e., the coronal emission is fainter) or due to…

The Consequences of Rubin Observatory Time-Domain Survey Design and Host-Galaxy Contamination on the Identification of Binary Supermassive Black Holes

Megan C. Davis, Jonathan R. Trump, Maria Charisi +4

Binary supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are consequences of galaxy mergers and dominate the low-frequency gravitational wave background. Finding binary SMBHs in existing time-domai…

Optical Emission-Line Properties of eROSITA-selected SDSS-V Galaxies

Nadiia G. Pulatova, Evgenii Rubtsov, Igor V. Chilingarian +21

We present and discuss optical emission line properties obtained from the analysis of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra for an X-ray selected sample of 3684 galaxies (0.002 <…
