On R-W1 as A Diagnostic to Discover Obscured Active Galactic Nuclei in Wide-Area X-ray Surveys

Stephanie M. LaMassa, Francesca Civano, Marcella Brusa +18

Capitalizing on the all-sky coverage of {\it WISE}, and the 35\% and 50\% sky coverage from SDSS and Pan-STARRS, respectively, we explore the efficacy of (optical) - $m_{3.…

Planet Hunters. VIII. Characterization of 41 Long-Period Exoplanet Candidates from Kepler Archival Data

Ji Wang, Debra A. Fischer, Thomas Barclay +30

The census of exoplanets is incomplete for orbital distances larger than 1 AU. Here, we present 41 long-period planet candidates in 38 systems identified by Planet Hunters based on…

The search for active black holes in nearby low-mass galaxies using optical and mid-IR data

Lia F. Sartori, Kevin Schawinski, Ezequiel Treister +4

We investigated AGN activity in low-mass galaxies, an important regime that can shed light onto BH formation and evolution, and their interaction with their host galaxies. We ident…
