AGN STORM 2. VI. Mapping Temperature Fluctuations in the Accretion Disk of Mrk 817

Jack M. M. Neustadt, Christopher S. Kochanek, John Montano +49

We fit the UV/optical lightcurves of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 to produce maps of the accretion disk temperature fluctuations resolved in time and radius. The maps are…

Revisiting Emission-Line Measurement Methods for Narrow-Line Active Galactic Nuclei

Viraja C. Khatu, Sarah C. Gallagher, Keith Horne +16

Measuring broad emission-line widths in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is not straightforward owing to the complex nature of flux variability in these systems. Line-width measurement…
