The extremes of AGN variability: outbursts, deep fades, changing looks, exceptional spectral states, and semi-periodicities

S. Komossa, D. Grupe, P. Marziani +16

The extremes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) variability offer valuable new insights into the drivers and physics of AGN. We discuss some of the most extreme cases of AGN variabili…
