HALO II: Constraining Hubble constant through continuum delay fitting of Fairall 9
Amit Kumar Mandal, Francisco Pozo Nuñez, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +28
The Hubble tension remains one of the most significant unresolved problems in modern cosmology. A key question is whether it may arise from underestimated systematic uncertainties…
HALO I: Photometric continuum reverberation mapping of Fairall 9
Amit Kumar Mandal, Francisco Pozo Nuñez, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +23
We investigate the origin of inter-band continuum time delays in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to study the structure and properties of their accretion disks. We aim to measure the…
Testing the extended corona model with the optical/UV reverberation mapping of the accretion disk
Vikram K. Jaiswal, Bożena Czerny
The illumination of the accretion disks is frequently studied assuming that the incident X-ray flux is a point-like source. The approach is referred as lamppost model.The most rece…
Application of the FRADO model of BLR formation to the Seyfert galaxy NGC 5548 and the first step toward determining the Hubble constant
V. K. Jaiswal, Amit K. Mandal, R. Prince +5
The dynamical and geometric structures of the Broad Line Region (BLR), along with the origins of continuum time delays in active galaxies, remain topics of ongoing debate. In this…
Broad-line region in active galactic nuclei: Dusty or dustless?
Ashwani Pandey, Bozena Czerny, Swayamtrupta Panda +5
Context. Dust in active galactic nuclei is clearly present right outside the broad-line region (BLR) in the form of a dusty molecular torus. However, some models of the BLR predict…
UV Fe II emission model of HE 0413-4031 and its relation to broad-line time delays
Michal Zajaček, Swayamtrupta Panda, Ashwani Pandey +11
Fe II emission is a well-known contributor to the UV spectra of active galactic nuclei and the modeling of this part may affect the results obtained for the MgII emiss…
Wavelength-resolved reverberation mapping of intermediate redshift quasars HE 0413-4031 and HE 0435-4312: Dissecting Mg II, optical Fe II, and UV Fe II emission regions
Raj Prince, Michal Zajaček, S. Panda +24
We present the wavelength-resolved reverberation mapping (RM) of combined MgII and UV FeII broad-line emissions for two intermediate redshifts (z1), luminous quasars - HE 041…
Expectations for time-delay measurements in active galactic nuclei with the Vera Rubin Observatory
Bozena Czerny, Swayamtrupta Panda, Raj Prince +10
The Vera Rubin Observatory will provide an unprecedented set of time-dependent observations of the sky. The planned Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) operating for 10 years wi…
Dusty plasma in active galactic nuclei
Bożena Czerny, Michal Zajaček, Mohammad-Hassan Naddaf +10
Since many years we know that dust in the form of the dusty-molecular torus is responsible for the obscuration in active galactic nuclei (AGN) at large viewing angles and thus for…
Accretion disks, quasars and cosmology: meandering towards understanding
Bozena Czerny, Shulei Cao, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +11
As Setti & Woltjer noted back in 1973, quasars could be used to construct the Hubble diagram but the actual application was not that straightforward. It took years to implement the…
Modelling time delays from two reprocessors in active galactic nuclei
Vikram Kumar Jaiswal, Raj Prince, Swayamtrupta Panda +1
Context. Continuum time delays from accretion disks in active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been proposed long time ago as a tool for measuring distances to the monitored sources. Howe…
