Untangling the Complex Nature of AGN Variability with Fairall 9
Scott Hagen, Chris Done, Edward M. Cackett +5
The accretion flow in AGN is not well understood, motivating intensive monitoring campaigns of multiwavelength variability to probe its structure. One of the best of these is the 3…
Infrared-Selected Active Galactic Nuclei in the Kepler Fields
Tran Tsan, Matthew Malkan, Rick Edelson +3
We utilized the Edelson and Malkan (2012) and Stern et al. (2012) selection techniques and other methods to identify AGN candidates that were monitored during the Kepler prime and…
Testing X-ray Reprocessing and Mapping the Soft Excess of NGC 7469 with NICER
Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Rick Edelson +5
We present an X-ray/UV reverberation analysis of NGC 7469 across 210 days, using daily NICER observations with contemporaneous monitoring by Swift UVOT+XRT. We model the X-ray spec…
Connecting the X-ray/UV variability of Fairall 9 with NICER: A Possible Warm Corona
Ethan R. Partington, Edward M. Cackett, Rick Edelson +7
The Seyfert 1 AGN Fairall 9 was targeted by NICER, Swift, and ground-based observatories for a 1000-day long reverberation mapping campaign. The following analysis of NICER s…
Intensive Swift and LCO monitoring of PG 1302102: AGN disk reverberation mapping of a supermassive black hole binary candidate
Tingting Liu, Rick Edelson, Juan V. Hernández Santisteban +7
We present an intensive multiwavelength monitoring campaign of the quasar PG 1302102 with Swift and the Las Cumbres Observatory network telescopes. At , it tests the l…
AGN STORM 2. VI. Mapping Temperature Fluctuations in the Accretion Disk of Mrk 817
Jack M. M. Neustadt, Christopher S. Kochanek, John Montano +49
We fit the UV/optical lightcurves of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817 to produce maps of the accretion disk temperature fluctuations resolved in time and radius. The maps are…
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…
X-ray Fluctuation Power Spectral Densities of Seyfert 1 Galaxies
A. Markowitz, R. Edelson, S. Vaughan +11
By combining complementary monitoring observations spanning long, medium and short time scales, we have constructed power spectral densities (PSDs) of six Seyfert~1 galaxies. These…
