The ePESSTO+ census of ZTF nuclear transients. I. What flares in galactic nuclei?
E. Concepción, T. Petrushevska, G. Leloudas +21
Transients in galactic nuclei arise from distinct processes, only some of which trace the supermassive black hole (SMBH). These include tidal disruption events (TDEs), changing-loo…
The Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Reverberation Mapping Project: Scientific Overview and Sample Characteristics
Hengxiao Guo, Jiancheng Wu, Wenwen Zuo +38
Recent discoveries with the James Webb Space Telescope of massive black holes at high redshift have highlighted fundamental questions about black hole seed formation and the coevol…
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: 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…
A systematically-selected sample of luminous, long-duration, ambiguous nuclear transients
P. Wiseman, R. D. Williams, I. Arcavi +12
We present a search for luminous, long-duration ambiguous nuclear transients (ANTs) similar to the unprecedented discovery of the extreme, ambiguous event AT2021lwx with a \,…
Optical Continuum Reverberation Mapping of a Candidate IMBH in a Nearby Seyfert 1 Galaxy
Wenwen Zuo, Hengxiao Guo, Jingbo Sun +25
To investigate the short-term variability and determine the size of the optical continuum emitting region of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), we carried out high-cadence, mul…
