BASS. LI. Cool gas supply of HI-massive local Seyfert galaxies

Jeein Kim, Aeree Chung, O. Ivy Wong +19

We present neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) imaging observations of 22 HI-rich (), hard X-ray-selected local Seyferts to explore how cool gas is su…

Multi-wavelength properties of changing-state active galactic nuclei: I. the evolution of soft excess and X-ray continuum

Arghajit Jana, Claudio Ricci, Alessia Tortosa +11

Changing-state active galactic nuclei (CSAGNs) exhibit rapid variability, with mass accretion rates that can change by several orders of magnitude in a few years. This provides us…

BASS LIV. Physical Properties of AGN-Hosting Galaxy Mergers from Multiwavelength SED Fitting

Marco Troncoso, Ezequiel Treister, Alejandra Rojas +17

Galaxy mergers are believed to play an important role in triggering rapid supermassive black hole (SMBH) growth. As merging nuclei approach each other, the physical properties of t…

BASS LII: The prevalence of double-peaked broad lines at low accretion rates among hard X-ray selected AGN

Charlotte Ward, Michael J. Koss, Michael Eracleous +18

A fraction of active galactic nuclei (AGN) have double-peaked H, H and Mg II broad lines attributed to emission from rotating gas in the accretion disk. Using optical spectro…

BASS LIII: The Eddington Ratio as the Primary Regulator of the Fraction of X-ray Emission in Active Galactic Nuclei

Kriti Kamal Gupta, Claudio Ricci, Alessia Tortosa +20

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) emit radiation via accretion across the entire energy spectrum. While the standard disk and corona model can somewhat describe this emission, it fails…

BASS. XLIX. Characterization of highly luminous and obscured AGNs: local X-ray and [NeV]3426 emission in comparison with the high-redshift Universe

Alessandro Peca, Michael J. Koss, Kyuseok Oh +21

We present a detailed analysis of the most luminous and obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) detected in the ultra-hard X-ray band (14-195 keV) by Swift/BAT. Our sample comprises…
