A Tidal Disruption Event from an Intermediate-mass Black Hole Revealed by Comprehensive Multi-wavelength Observations
Jialai Wang, Mengqiu Huang, Yongquan Xue +12
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star crosses the tidal radius of a black hole (BH) and is ripped apart, providing a powerful way to probe dormant BHs over a wide mass r…
The Drivers of the Decline in Supermassive Black Hole Growth at
Zhibo Yu, W. N. Brandt, Fan Zou +4
It is well established that cosmic supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth peaks at , followed by a strong decline of toward the present day, w…
The Faintest, Extremely Variable X-ray Tidal Disruption Event from a Supermassive Black Hole Binary?
Mengqiu Huang, Yongquan Xue, Shuo Li +30
Tidal disruption events (TDEs), which occur when stars enter the tidal radii of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and are subsequently torn apart by their tidal forces, represent in…
The Nature of an Unidentified X-ray Source in the 7 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South Catalog
Quinn P. Sullivan, Zhibo Yu, William N. Brandt +2
In the 7 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South catalog, only one source, XID 912, was highly significantly detected in X-rays but had no formally reported counterparts in the UV, optical, in…
Photometric Selection of type 1 Quasars in the XMM-LSS Field with Machine Learning and the Disk-Corona Connection
Jian Huang, Bin Luo, W. N. Brandt +4
We present photometric selection of type 1 quasars in the XMM-Large Scale Structure (XMM-LSS) survey field with machine learning. We constructed our trai…
Dust-Obscured Galaxies in the XMM-SERVS Fields: Selection, Multiwavelength Characterization, and Physical Nature
Zhibo Yu, W. N. Brandt, Fan Zou +7
Dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) are enshrouded by dust, and many are believed to host accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which makes them unique objects for probing the coev…
Rare Occasions: Tidal Disruption Events Rarely Power the AGNs Observed in Dwarf Galaxies
Joanne Tan, Guang Yang, Jonelle L. Walsh +6
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) could be an important growth channel for massive black holes in dwarf galaxies. Theoretical work suggests that the observed active galactic nuclei (A…
The Cosmic Evolution of the Supermassive Black Hole Population: A Hybrid Observed Accretion and Simulated Mergers Approach
Fan Zou, W. N. Brandt, Elena Gallo +4
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can grow through both accretion and mergers. It is still unclear how SMBHs evolve under these two channels from high redshifts to the SMBH populati…
The fundamental plane of black hole activity for low-luminosity radio active galactic nuclei across 1 < z < 4
Yijun Wang, Tao Wang, Luis C. Ho +2
The fundamental plane of black hole activity (BHFP) describes the correlation between radio luminosity (), X-ray luminosity (), and black hole mass. It reflects a disc-je…
Linking black-hole growth with host galaxies: The accretion-stellar mass relation and its cosmic evolution
G. Yang, W. N. Brandt, F. Vito +9
Previous studies suggest that the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) may be fundamentally related to host-galaxy stellar mass (). To investigate this SMBH growth-$…
X-ray Insights into the Nature of Quasars with Redshifted Broad Absorption Lines
Ning-Xiao Zhang, W. N. Brandt, N. S. Ahmed +8
We present observations of seven broad absorption line (BAL) quasars at -2.516 with redshifted BAL troughs (RSBALs). Five of our seven targets were detected by $…
