Changing-Look Active Galactic Nuclei in SDSS-V: Host-Galaxy Properties and Black-Hole Scaling Relations
Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +23
Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) exhibit dramatic spectral variability on unexpectedly short timescales, challenging standard accretion flow models. Despite growing s…
The SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper Reverberation Mapping Project: Light Echoes of the Coronal Line Region in a Luminous Quasar
Theodore B. Smith, Logan B. Fries, Jonathan R. Trump +19
We present a reverberation mapping analysis of the coronal line [Ne V]3427 emitting region of the quasar COS168 (SDSS J095910.30+020732.2). [Ne V]3427 is known as one of the…
Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V: Pioneering Panoptic Spectroscopy
Juna A. Kollmeier, Hans-Walter Rix, Conny Aerts +217
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V (SDSS-V) is pioneering panoptic spectroscopy: it is the first all-sky, multi-epoch, optical-to-infrared spectroscopic survey. SDSS-V is mapping the s…
Procedures for Constraining Robotic Fiber Positioning for Highly Multiplexed Spectroscopic Surveys: The Case of FPS for SDSS-V
Ilija Medan, Tom Dwelly, Kevin R. Covey +12
One crucial aspect of planning any large scale astronomical survey is constructing an observing strategy that maximizes reduced data quality. This is especially important for surve…
The eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS): SDSS spectroscopic observations of X-ray sources
Catarina Aydar, Andrea Merloni, Tom Dwelly +45
We present one of the largest uniform optical spectroscopic surveys of X-ray selected sources to date that were observed as a pilot study for the Black Hole Mapper (BHM) survey. Th…
Testing disc reprocessing models for AGN optical variability by comparison of X-ray and optical power spectra of NGC 4395
Max Beard, Ian McHardy, Keith Horne +11
It is generally thought that AGN optical variability is produced, at least in part, by reprocessing of central X-rays by a surrounding accretion disc, resulting in wavelength-depen…
