Taking a Long Look: A Two-Decade Reverberation Mapping Study of High-Luminosity Quasars

Shai Kaspi, W. N. Brandt, Dan Maoz +4

Reverberation mapping (RM) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) has been used over the past three decades to determine AGN broad-line region (BLR) sizes and central black-hole masses,…

Searches after Gravitational Waves Using ARizona Observatories (SAGUARO): Observations and Analysis from Advanced LIGO/Virgo's Third Observing Run

K. Paterson, M. J. Lundquist, J. C. Rastinejad +34

With the conclusion of the third observing run for Advanced LIGO/Virgo (O3), we present a detailed analysis of both triggered and serendipitous observations of 17 gravitational wav…

The Cepheid Distance to the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4051

Wenlong Yuan, Lucas M. Macri, Bradley M. Peterson +15

We derive a distance of ~Mpc (~mag) to the archetypal narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 based on Cepheid Period--Luminosity relations and new…

Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. XII. Broad-Line Region Modeling of NGC 5548

P. R. Williams, A. Pancoast, T. Treu +155

We present geometric and dynamical modeling of the broad line region for the multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign focused on NGC 5548 in 2014. The dataset includes photo…

The Cepheid Distance to the Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4151

Wenlong Yuan, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Samantha L. Hoffmann +15

We derive a distance of Mpc to the archetypical Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 based on the near-infrared Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation and new Hubble Space Telescope…

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…
