The Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey: Variable Object Selection and Anticipated Results
Eric Morganson, Paul J. Green, Scott F. Anderson +37
We present the selection algorithm and anticipated results for the Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey (TDSS). TDSS is an SDSS-IV eBOSS subproject that will provide initial identifica…
An 8 hour characteristic time-scale in submillimetre light curves of Sagittarius A*
Jason Dexter, Brandon Kelly, Geoffrey C. Bower +4
We compile and analyse long term (~10 year) submillimetre (1.3, 0.87, 0.43 mm, submm) wavelength light curves of the Galactic centre black hole, Sagittarius A*. The 0.87 and 0.43 m…
Quasar Black Hole Mass Estimates in the Era of Time Domain Astronomy
Brandon C. Kelly, Tommaso Treu, Matthew Malkan +2
We investigate the dependence of the normalization of the high-frequency part of the X-ray and optical power spectral densities (PSD) on black hole mass for a sample of 39 active g…
Using the Fundamental Plane of Black Hole Activity to Distinguish X-ray Processes from Weakly Accreting Black Holes
Richard M. Plotkin, Sera Markoff, Brandon C. Kelly +2
The fundamental plane of black hole activity is a relation between X-ray luminosity, radio luminosity, and black hole mass for hard state Galactic black holes and their supermassiv…
A Stochastic Model for the Luminosity Fluctuations of Accreting Black Holes
Brandon C. Kelly, Malgorzata Sobolewska, Aneta Siemiginowska
In this work we have developed a new stochastic model for the fluctuations in lightcurves of accreting black holes. The model is based on a linear combination of stochastic process…
Submillimeter Variability and the Gamma-ray Connection in Fermi Blazars
Allison L. Strom, Aneta Siemiginowska, Mark A. Gurwell +1
We present multi-epoch observations from the Submillimeter Array (SMA) for a sample of 171 bright blazars, 43 of which were detected by Fermi during the first three months of obser…
