Supermassive Black Holes with High Accretion Rates in Active Galactic Nuclei. XV. Reverberation Mapping of Mg II Emission Lines

Hua-Rui Bai, Pu Du, Chen Hu +25

As the 15th paper in a series reporting on a large reverberation mapping (RM) campaign of super-Eddington accreting massive black holes (SEAMBHs) in active galactic nuclei (AGNs),…

Supermassive Black Holes with High Accretion Rates in Active Galactic Nuclei. XIV. Long-Duration High-Cadence Reverberation Mapping Results for 11 PG Quasars

Chen Hu, Zhu-Heng Yao, Yong-Jie Chen +20

We report the results of a long-duration high-cadence reverberation mapping campaign of a second batch of 11 PG quasars using the 2.2m telescope at the Calar Alto Observatory. This…

Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry. V. Long-term Variation and Evolution of the Broad H Emission-Line Profiles

Feng-Na Fang, Pu Du, Michael S. Brotherton +40

The physical origins of the diverse emission-line asymmetries observed in the spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remain incompletely understood. Monitoring the temporal varia…

Warped accretion disks and quasars with episodic periodicity of long-term variations

Yue-Chang Peng, Jian-Min Wang, Pu Du +2

It has been found that some quasars are undergoing quasi-periodic variations (most of them with damped amplitudes) in optical bands from long-term monitoring campaigns, but how to…

Bulge Oscillation Driven by Outflows of Active Galactic Nuclei. I. Fast Outflow Case

Yue-Chang Peng, Jian-Min Wang, Yu Zhao +1

There is growing evidence for star formation inside outflows of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). The formed stars are injected into bulges and give rise to perturbation of bulges. In…

Spectroastrometry and Reverberation Mapping (SARM) of Active Galactic Nuclei. I. The H Broad-line Region Structure and Black Hole Mass of Five Quasars

Yan-Rong Li, Chen Hu, Zhu-Heng Yao +18

We conduct a reverberation mapping (RM) campaign to spectroscopically monitor a sample of selected bright active galactic nuclei with large anticipated broad-line region (BLR) size…

Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry. IV. First Reverberation Mapping Results of 14 AGNs

T. E. Zastrocky, Michael S. Brotherton, Pu Du +41

We report first-time reverberation mapping results for 14 AGNs from the ongoing Monitoring AGNs with H Asymmetry campaign (MAHA). These results utilize optical spectra obtained…

Searching for quasar candidates with periodic variations from the Zwicky Transient Facility: results and implications

Yong-Jie Chen, Shuo Zhai, Jun-Rong Liu +7

We conduct a systematic search for quasars with periodic variations from the archival photometric data of the Zwicky Transient Facility by cross-matching with the quasar catalogs o…
