Varstrometry for Off-nucleus and Dual sub-Kpc AGN (VODKA): Radio Classification of High-Redshift Dual AGN Candidates with the Very Large Array
Sude Baltaci, Arran C. Gross, Xin Liu +3
Dual active galactic nuclei (dual AGNs) are pairs of simultaneously accreting supermassive black holes in merging galaxies. We investigate dual AGNs to understand whether merger-in…
Understanding the Broad-line Region of Active Galactic Nuclei with Photoionization. II. Slim disks, Self-shadowing, and BLR sizes
Qiaoya Wu, Yue Shen, Chris Done +2
Reverberation-mapping (RM) measurements have revealed that high-accretion-rate active galactic nuclei (AGNs) systematically lie below the canonical broad-line region (BLR) radius -…
Varstrometry for Off-nucleus and Dual Subkiloparsec AGN (VODKA): Three Quadruply Lensed Quasars at Cosmic Noon in HST and JWST
Mingrui Liu, Yu-Ching Chen, Nadia L. Zakamska +7
We present results from imaging observations of three quadruply lensed quasars by Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at redshifts , 2.975…
Connecting current and future dual AGN searches to LISA and PTA gravitational wave detections
Nianyi Chen, Yihao Zhou, Ekaterine Dadiani +10
Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) mark an observable stage of massive black hole (MBH) pairing in galaxy mergers and are precursors to the MBH binaries that generate low-frequency…
Estimating the masses of Narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies using damped random walk method
Rachana, M. Vivek, Yue Shen
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLSy1s) are a subclass of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), commonly associated with rapidly accreting, relatively low-mass black holes ( - $10^8…
The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +210
Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…
Frequency and Abundance of Binary sUpermassive bLack holes from Optical Variability Surveys (FABULOVS): Hubble Space Telescope Imaging of Radial-Velocity Selected Binary Candidates
Liam Nolan, Ming-Yang Zhuang, Xin Liu +4
Sub-parsec (sub-pc) binary supermassive black holes (BSBHs) should be common from galaxy mergers, yet direct evidence has been elusive. We present HST/WFC3IR F160W imaging for a sa…
Galactic-scale Quasar Pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Gaia DR3
Yuanzhe Jiang, Yue Shen, Xin Liu +6
We preform a systematic search for galactic-scale quasar pairs and small-scale (<3 arcsec) lenses using the SDSS DR16 quasar catalog and Gaia DR3. Candidate double quasars (both ar…
VODKA: Complex molecular gas dynamics in a kpc-separation z=2.17 dual quasar with ALMA
Yuzo Ishikawa, Nadia L. Zakamska, Yu-Ching Chen +6
In galaxy mergers, dual quasars - two actively accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) - provide a unique opportunity to study the interplay between galaxy dynamics and quasar a…
Distance and stellar parameter estimations of solar-like stars from the LAMOST spectroscopic survey
Yue-Yue Shen, A-Li Luo
Context. The Gaia mission has opened up a new era for the precise astrometry of stars, thus revolutionizing our understanding of the Milky Way. However, beyond a few kiloparseconds…
Varstrometry for Off-nucleus and Dual sub-Kpc AGN (VODKA): A Mix of Singles, Lenses, and True Duals at Cosmic Noon
Arran C. Gross, Yu-Ching Chen, Masamune Oguri +8
Dual Active Galactic Nuclei (dual AGNs), a phase in some galaxy mergers during which both central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are active, are expected to be a key observable s…
Varstrometry for Off-nucleus and Dual sub-Kpc AGN (VODKA): Long-slit optical spectroscopic follow-up with Gemini/GMOS and HST/STIS
Yu-Ching Chen, Arran C. Gross, Xin Liu +4
High spatial and spectral resolution observations are essential for identifying sub-arcsecond dual and lensed quasars and confirming their redshifts. We present Gemini/GMOS and HST…
VODKA-JWST: A 3.8 kpc dual quasar at cosmic noon in a powerful starburst galaxy with JWST/MIRI IFU
Yu-Ching Chen, Yuzo Ishikawa, Nadia L. Zakamska +12
Dual quasars, two active supermassive black holes at galactic scales, represent crucial objects for studying the impact of galaxy mergers and quasar activity on the star formation…
VODKA-JWST: Synchronized growth of two SMBHs in a massive gas disk? A 3.8 kpc separation dual quasar at cosmic noon with NIRSpec IFU
Yuzo Ishikawa, Nadia L. Zakamska, Yue Shen +10
The search for dual supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is of immense interest in modern astrophysics. Galaxy mergers may fuel and produce SMBH pairs. Actively accreting SMBH pairs ar…
