SRG/eROSITA X-ray selected cataclysmic variable candidates observed in SDSS-V DR20

J. Brink, A. D. Schwope, K. G. Pradeep +35

We report on the spectroscopic observations obtained during SDSS-V DR20 of accreting compact binaries (ACB), specifically the cataclysmic variables (CVs), that were identified as l…

The eROSITA X-ray luminosity function of active galactic nuclei

W. Roster, J. Buchner, M. Salvato +23

The X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides an observational probe of the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) across cosmic time. With its l…

The SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey DR2: Cumulative X-ray catalogues from the first three surveys and multi-wavelength counterparts in the western Galactic hemisphere

M. E. Ramos-Ceja, G. Lamer, M. Salvato +111

The eROSITA telescope array on board the Spektrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission began its all-sky survey program in December 2019, scanning the sky at an approximately six-month cad…

An Exploratory Analysis of New Large Gaia-informed Quasar Samples in SDSS-V

Shir Aviram, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Tom Dwelly +22

Quasars are luminous objects that provide insights into the physics and evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their accretion flows, galaxy evolution, and even cosmolog…

Spectroscopic Analysis of Fermi-detected Blazars using SDSS-V

Mohammed Iddrisu Nlowie, James Aird, Eli Kasai +17

The automated spectroscopic pipeline of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) systematically assigns Galactic star, galaxy, or typical quasar classifications to jet-dominated blazars…

What's Missing in AGN Feedback? Lessons learnt from Magneticum, IllustrisTNG and Simba

D. T. Mazengo, P. Popesso, I. Marini +20

Accurately balancing gas reservoirs, star formation, and feedback across cosmic time remains a central challenge for galaxy formation models in modern hydrodynamical simulations. W…

AGN radiative feedback as the main regulator of [O III] outflow activity and obscuration in X-ray AGN

Carolina Andonie, Andrea Merloni, Catarina Aydar +12

Large-scale ionised outflows and nuclear obscuration are fundamental manifestations of AGN activity, yet direct observational evidence linking these phenomena remains scarce. We us…

SDSS-V: Revealing a weak accretion state in X-ray selected red quasars

Paloma Guetzoyan, James Aird, Amy L. Rankine +17

Red quasars (rQSOs) have been recognized as a short-lived, early stage in the evolutionary cycle of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), with fundamental differences in their intrinsic pr…

Robust AGN and host-galaxy decomposition in optical spectral fitting

C. Aydar, A. Merloni, G. Zeltyn +24

Unraveling the growth of supermassive black holes and their connection to host galaxies requires disentangling the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) emission from that of the stellar po…

A large population of over-massive black hole quasars at z=0.3-0.8 revealed by eROSITA

Johannes Buchner, Isabelle Gauger, Qiaoya Wu +14

In most galaxies, the central black hole accounts for no more than a percent of the total mass in stars. Recently, however, extremely over-massive black holes with ratios of 10% ha…
