Corona-heated Accretion-disk Reprocessing: Frequency-Resolved Lag Predictions for UV/Optical Reverberation Mapping of Active Galactic Nuclei

Jie Chen, Mouyuan Sun, Zhi-Xiang Zhang

Continuum reverberation mapping with high-cadence, long-term UV/optical monitoring of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) enables us to resolve the AGN central engine sizes on different…
