Continuum Reverberation in Bright Quasars Using NASA/ATLAS
Zachary Steyn, Christian Wolf, Christopher Onken +5
Variable continuum emission from AGN can be used to probe the structure of their accretion disks via reverberation mapping. Assuming a variable, hot inner light source irradiates t…

The Variability Structure Function of the Highest-Luminosity Quasars on Short Timescales
Ji-Jia Tang, Christian Wolf, John Tonry
The stochastic photometric variability of quasars is known to follow a random-walk phenomenology on emission timescales of months to years. Some high-cadence restframe optical moni…
