A Changing-Look Seyfert Discovered by eROSITA Reveals a Two-Component Broad-Line Region

Alex Markowitz, Mirko Krumpe, David Homan +12

Extreme sudden changes in the flow of accreting gas onto SMBHs manifest themselves via large-amplitude continuum variability and changes to broad Balmer emission profiles, driving…

Extreme line profile variations in the repeating changing-look active galactic nucleus IRAS23226-3843

Wolfram Kollatschny, Dirk Grupe, Hartmut Winkler +7

IRAS23226-3843 has been identified as a highly variable Seyfert galaxy and even as a changing-look active galactic nucleus based on optical spectra. Here we present follow-up obser…

Counterpart identification and classification for eRASS1 and characterisation of the AGN content

M. Salvato, J. Wolf, T. Dwelly +44

[abridged] Accurately accounting for the AGN phase in galaxy evolution requires a large, clean AGN sample. This is now possible with SRG/eROSITA. The public Data Release 1 (DR1, Ja…

Searching for supermassive black holes binaries within SRG/eROSITA-De I: Properties of the X-ray selected candidates

D. Tubín-Arenas, M. Krumpe, D. Homan +20

Abridged: Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) separated by (sub)-pc scales represent one of the latest stages of hierarchical galaxy assembly. However, many of these objects…

An X-ray flaring event and a variable soft X-ray excess in the Seyfert LCRS B040659.9-385922 as detected with eROSITA

S. Krishnan, A. G. Markowitz, M. Krumpe +13

Extreme continuum variability in AGNs can indicate extreme changes in accretion flows onto supermassive black holes. We explore the multiwavelength nature of a continuum flare in t…

eROSITA Detection of a Cloud Obscuration Event in the Seyfert AGN EC 04570-5206

Alex Markowitz, Mirko Krumpe, David Homan +13

Recent years have seen broad observational support for the presence of a clumpy component within the circumnuclear gas around SMBHs. In the X-ray band, individual clouds can manife…

Multiwavelength study of extreme variability in LEDA 1154204: A changing-look event in a type 1.9 Seyfert

T. Saha, A. Markowitz, D. Homan +16

Context. Multiwavelength studies of transients in actively accreting supermassive black holes have revealed that large-amplitude variability is frequently linked to significant cha…
