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…

The Twentieth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First All-Sky BOSS Spectra, eROSITA-SDSS-V Mapper Coordinated Observations, and a Preview of the Local Volume Mapper

SDSS Collaboration, Mojgan Aghakhanloo, David Aguilar +273

This paper presents the twentieth data release (DR20) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the third data release of its fifth generation (SDSS-V). SDSS-V is a panoptic spectroscopy…

CIV wind properties of the SDSS-V X-ray selected quasars: strong optical-to-UV emission is key regardless of X-ray strength

Amy L. Rankine, David Homan, James Aird +25

We present an investigation of the rest-frame optical/UV and X-ray properties for a sample of 3027 X-ray selected quasars between detected in the deepest Spec…

An Extremely-High Velocity Outflow in SMSS J2157-3602, the most luminous quasar in the first 1.3 Gyr

Giustina Vietri, Paola Rodriguez Hidalgo, Amy Rankine +16

We report the discovery of an extremely high-velocity outflow (EHVO) in the most luminous ( 2.29 10 erg/s) QSO, SMSS J2157-3602, at z=4.692. Comb…

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…

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…
