AGN STORM 2. XII. Ground-Based Optical Photometry and Lag Measurements of Mrk 817
John W. Montano, Aaron J. Barth, Keith Horne +40
We present the ground-based imaging campaign and light curves of Markarian 817 as part of the multiwavelength monitoring program AGN STORM\,2. Observations were carried out over 1.…
Untangling the Complex Nature of AGN Variability with Fairall 9
Scott Hagen, Chris Done, Edward M. Cackett +5
The accretion flow in AGN is not well understood, motivating intensive monitoring campaigns of multiwavelength variability to probe its structure. One of the best of these is the 3…
Testing X-ray Reprocessing and Mapping the Soft Excess of NGC 7469 with NICER
Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Rick Edelson +5
We present an X-ray/UV reverberation analysis of NGC 7469 across 210 days, using daily NICER observations with contemporaneous monitoring by Swift UVOT+XRT. We model the X-ray spec…
Connecting the X-ray/UV variability of Fairall 9 with NICER: A Possible Warm Corona
Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Rick Edelson +7
The Seyfert 1 AGN Fairall 9 was targeted by NICER, Swift, and ground-based observatories for a 1000-day long reverberation mapping campaign. The following analysis of NICER s…
AGN STORM 2. VII. A Frequency-resolved Map of the Accretion Disk in Mrk 817: Simultaneous X-ray Reverberation and UVOIR Disk Reprocessing Time Lags
Collin Lewin, Erin Kara, Aaron J. Barth +35
X-ray reverberation mapping is a powerful technique for probing the innermost accretion disk, whereas continuum reverberation mapping in the UV, optical, and infrared (UVOIR) revea…
AGN STORM 2: VIII. Investigating the Narrow Absorption Lines in Mrk 817 Using HST-COS Observations
Maryam Dehghanian, Nahum Arav, Gerard A. Kriss +39
We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk817 during an intensive multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign for 16 months. Here, we examine the behavior of narrow UV absorption lin…
AGN STORM 2: IX. Studying the Dynamics of the Ionized Obscurer in Mrk 817 with High-resolution X-ray Spectroscopy
Fatima Zaidouni, Erin Kara, Peter Kosec +45
We present the results of the XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations taken as part of the ongoing, intensive multi-wavelength monitoring program of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 by the…
AGN STORM 2. VI. Mapping Temperature Fluctuations in the Accretion Disk of Mrk 817
Jack M. M. Neustadt, Christopher S. Kochanek, John Montano +49
We fit the UV/optical lightcurves of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 to produce maps of the accretion disk temperature fluctuations resolved in time and radius. The maps are…
AGN STORM 2: V. Anomalous Behavior of the CIV Light Curve in Mrk 817
Y. Homayouni, Gerard A. Kriss, Gisella De Rosa +49
An intensive reverberation mapping campaign on the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk817 using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) revealed significant vari…
AGN STORM 2. IV. Swift X-ray and ultraviolet/optical monitoring of Mrk 817
Edward M. Cackett, Jonathan Gelbord, Aaron J. Barth +48
The AGN STORM 2 campaign is a large, multiwavelength reverberation mapping project designed to trace out the structure of Mrk 817 from the inner accretion disk to the broad emissio…
AGN STORM 2. III. A NICER view of the variable X-ray obscurer in Mrk 817
Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Erin Kara +44
The AGN STORM 2 collaboration targeted the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 for a year-long multiwavelength, coordinated reverberation mapping campaign including HST, Swift, XMM-Newton, NI…
AGN STORM 2: II. Ultraviolet Observations of Mrk817 with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope
Y. Homayouni, Gisella De Rosa, Rachel Plesha +62
We present reverberation mapping measurements for the prominent ultraviolet broad emission lines of the active galactic nucleus Mrk817 using 165 spectra obtained with the Cosmic Or…
Discovery of the luminous X-ray ignition eRASSt J234402.9352640; I. Tidal disruption event or a rapid increase in accretion in an active galactic nucleus?
D. Homan, M. Krumpe, A. Markowitz +17
In November 2020, a new, bright object, eRASSt J234402.9352640, was discovered in the second all-sky survey of SRG/eROSITA. The object brightened by a factor of at least 150 in…
