Revisiting the X-ray-to-UV relation of Quasars in the era of all-sky surveys

Maria Chira, Antonis Georgakakis, Angel Ruiz +8

The X-ray--to--UV relation of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), commonly parametrized via the monochromatic luminosities at and , reflects the energetic i…

Characterising the X-ray variability of QSOs to the highest Eddington ratios and black hole masses with eROSITA light curves

Antonis Georgakakis, Angel Ruiz, Johannes Buchner +9

An important diagnostic of the inner structure of accretion flows onto supermassive black holes are the stochastic flux variations at X-ray wavelengths. Despite its significance, a…

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 Relationship at : Big Black Holes in Little Red Dots

Brenda L. Jones, Dale D. Kocevski, Fabio Pacucci +25

JWST has identified a large population of faint, broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the early universe that are powered by black holes (BHs) that often appear overmassive r…

Optical Emission-Line Properties of eROSITA-selected SDSS-V Galaxies

Nadiia G. Pulatova, Evgenii Rubtsov, Igor V. Chilingarian +21

We present and discuss optical emission line properties obtained from the analysis of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra for an X-ray selected sample of 3684 galaxies (0.002 <…

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…

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…

The Average Soft X-ray Spectra of eROSITA Active Galactic Nuclei

Shi-Jiang Chen, Johannes Buchner, Teng Liu +16

Context. AGNs are strong X-ray emitters shaped by disk-corona interactions. The soft excess (0.5-2.0 keV) reveals key information about the "warm corona" bridging the disk and hot…

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…

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…

The X-ray statistical properties of dust-obscured galaxies detected by eROSITA

Akatoki Noboriguchi, Kohei Ichikawa, Yoshiki Toba +15

Dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) are considered to be in a co-evolution phase, with the associated active galactic nuclei (AGN) obscured by dust and gas. Although the DOGs are thought…

Retrieving the hot circumgalactic medium physics from the X-ray radial profile from eROSITA with an IlustrisTNG-based forward model

Soumya Shreeram, Johan Comparat, Andrea Merloni +9

Recent eROSITA measurements of the radial profiles of the hot CGM in the Milky-Way stellar mass (MW-mass) regime provide us with a new benchmark to constrain the hot gas around MW-…
