Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. X. Understanding the Absorption-Line Holiday in NGC 5548
M. Dehghanian, G. J. Ferland, G. A. Kriss +27
The flux variations in the emission lines in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are driven by variations in the ionizing continuum flux --which are usually reflected in the observable U…
The First Swift Intensive AGN Accretion Disk Reverberation Mapping Survey
R. Edelson, J. Gelbord, E. Cackett +32
Swift intensive accretion disk reverberation mapping of four AGN yielded light curves sampled 200-350 times in 0.3-10 keV X-ray and six UV/optical bands. Uniform reduction an…
Quasar Accretion Disk Sizes from Continuum Reverberation Mapping in the DES Standard Star Fields
Zhefu Yu, Paul Martini, T. M. Davis +72
Measurements of the physical properties of accretion disks in active galactic nuclei are important for better understanding the growth and evolution of supermassive black holes. We…
The Changing-Look Quasar Mrk 590 is Awakening
S. Mathur, K. D. Denney, A. Gupta +9
Mrk 590 was originally classified as a Seyfert 1 galaxy, but then it underwent dramatic changes: the nuclear luminosity dropped by over two orders of magnitude and the broad emissi…
Velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of five bright Seyfert 1 galaxies
G. De Rosa, M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier +99
We present the first results from a reverberation-mapping campaign undertaken during the first half of 2012, with additional data on one AGN (NGC 3227) from a 2014 campaign. Our ma…
Continuum Reverberation Mapping of the Accretion Disks in Two Seyfert 1 Galaxies
M. M. Fausnaugh, D. A. Starkey, Keith Horne +69
We present optical continuum lags for two Seyfert 1 galaxies, MCG+08-11-011 and NGC 2617, using monitoring data from a reverberation mapping campaign carried out in 2014. Our light…
