Reverberation Mapping with Intermediate-Band Photometry: Detection of Broad-Line H Time Lags for Quasars at
Linhua Jiang, Yue Shen, Ian D. McGreer +3
We present a reverberation mapping (RM) experiment that combines broad- and intermediate-band photometry; it is the first such attempt targeting a sample of 13 quasars at $0.2<z<0.…
SDSS J0159+0105: A Radio-Quiet Quasar with a Centi-Parsec Supermassive Black Hole Binary Candidate
Zhen-Ya Zheng, Nathaniel R. Butler, Yue Shen +4
We report a candidate centi-parsec supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) in the radio-quiet quasar SDSS J0159+0105 at z=0.217. With a modified lomb-scargle code GLSdeDRW and the a…
Physical Properties of Spectroscopically-Confirmed Galaxies at . III. Stellar Populations from SED Modeling with Secure Ly Emission and Redshifts
Linhua Jiang, Kristian Finlator, Seth H. Cohen +9
We present a study of stellar populations in a sample of spectroscopically-confirmed Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) and Ly emitters (LAEs) at . These galaxies have deep op…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: First Broad-line Hbeta and MgII Lags at z>~0.3 from six-Month Spectroscopy
Yue Shen, Keith Horne, C. J. Grier +26
Reverberation mapping (RM) measurements of broad-line region (BLR) lags in z>0.3 quasars are important for directly measuring black hole masses in these distant objects, but so far…
Bayesian High-Redshift Quasar Classification from Optical and Mid-IR Photometry
Gordon T. Richards, Adam D. Myers, Christina M. Peters +9
We identify 885,503 type 1 quasar candidates to i<22 using the combination of optical and mid-IR photometry. Optical photometry is taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III: Bary…
An ultra-luminous quasar at z=5.363 with a ten billion solar mass black hole and a Metal-Rich DLA at z~5
Feige Wang, Xue-Bing Wu, Xiaohui Fan +11
We report the discovery of an ultra-luminous quasar J030642.51+185315.8 (hereafter J0306+1853) at redshift 5.363, which hosts a super-massive black hole (SMBH) with $M_{BH} = (1.07…
