The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Photometric g and i Light Curves

K. Kinemuchi, Patrick B. Hall, Ian McGreer +28

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) program monitors 849 active galactic nuclei (AGN) both spectroscopically and photometrically. The photometric observati…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: How Broad Emission Line Widths Change When Luminosity Changes

Shu Wang, Yue Shen, Linhua Jiang +13

Quasar broad emission lines are largely powered by photoionization from the accretion continuum. Increased central luminosity will enhance line emissivity in more distant clouds, l…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Improving Lag Detection with an Extended Multi-Year Baseline

Yue Shen, C. J. Grier, Keith Horne +32

We investigate the effects of extended multi-year light curves (9-year photometry and 5-year spectroscopy) on the detection of time lags between the continuum variability and broad…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Accretion and Broad Emission Line Physics from a Hypervariable Quasar

Jason Dexter, Shuo Xin, Yue Shen +18

We analyze extensive spectroscopic and photometric data of the hypervariable quasar SDSS J131424+530527 (RMID 017) at z=0.456, an optical "changing look" quasar from the Sloan Digi…
