AGNFormer I: Reconstruction of AGN spectra using a probabilistic transformer model
Benedict L. Rouse, Franz E. Bauer, Tomasz Różański +8
We explore how an uncertainty-aware transformer-based architecture can leverage information embedded across the entire observed optical spectra of AGN, focusing on the algorithm's…
The X-ray properties of the most luminous quasars with strong emission-line outflows
Anastasia Shlentsova, Bartolomeo Trefoloni, Matilde Signorini +7
Strong outflows from active galactic nuclei are frequently observed in objects with lower coronal X-ray luminosity. This intrinsic X-ray weakness is considered a requirement for th…
Early Stages of Dusty Tori: The First Infrared Spectra from a Highly Multiscale Quasar Simulation
Jaeden Bardati, Philip F. Hopkins, Gordon T. Richards
We present the first infrared spectral predictions from a self-consistent simulation of the formation of a quasar in a starburst galaxy, spanning the cosmological environment to sc…
Luminous Mid-IR Selected Obscured Quasars at Cosmic Noon in SDSS Stripe82 II: Spectroscopic Diversity and Broad H Emissions
Ben Wang, Yuzo Ishikawa, Joseph F. Hennawi +5
We present a multiwavelength spectroscopic survey of 23 luminous mid-infrared-selected Type-2 quasars at redshifts z = 0.88 to 3.49. The targets were selected in the SDSS Stripe 82…
Gemini Near Infrared SpectrographDistant Quasar Survey: the Chandra View
Andrea Marlar, Ohad Shemmer, Michael S. Brotherton +5
We present Chandra observations of 63 sources from the Gemini Near Infrared SpectrographDistant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS) of which 54 were targeted by snapshot observations in C…
Luminous Mid-IR Selected Type-2 Quasars at Cosmic Noon in SDSS Stripe82 I: Selection, Composite Photometry, and Spectral Energy Distributions
Ben Wang, Joseph F. Hennawi, Zheng Cai +6
We analyze 23 spectroscopically confirmed Type-2 quasars (QSOs) selected from the WISE 22m band in the SDSS Stripe 82 region, focusing on their multi-band photometry and spe…
[OIII] emission in z=2 quasars with and without Broad Absorption Lines
Matthew J. Temple, Amy L. Rankine, Manda Banerji +6
Understanding the links between different phases of outflows from active galactic nuclei is a key goal in extragalactic astrophysics. Here we compare [OIII] 4960,5008 outflow s…
A disc wind model for blueshifts in quasar broad emission lines
James H. Matthews, Jago Strong-Wright, Christian Knigge +7
Blueshifts - or, more accurately, blue asymmetries - in broad emission lines such as CIV 1550 are common in luminous quasars and correlate with fundamental properties such as Ed…
The most luminous blue quasars at 3.0<z<3.3 -- III. LBT spectra and accretion parameters
Bartolomeo Trefoloni, Elisabeta Lusso, Emanuele Nardini +13
We present the analysis of the rest frame ultraviolet and optical spectra of 30 bright blue quasars at , selected to examine the suitability of AGN as cosmological probes.…
The most luminous blue quasars at 3.0<z<3.3. II. CIV/X-ray emission and accretion disc physics
Elisabeta Lusso, Emanuele Nardini, Susanna Bisogni +12
We analyse the properties of the CIV broad emission line in connection with the X-ray emission of 30 bright SDSS quasars at z~3.0-3.3 with pointed XMM-Newton observations, which we…
