Fraction of the X-ray selected AGNs with optical emission lines in galaxy groups

Feng Li, Qirong Yuan, Weihao Bian +2

Compared with numerous X-ray dominant active galactic nuclei (AGNs) without emission-line signatures in their optical spectra, the X-ray selected AGNs with optical emission lines a…

A Possible ~20 yr Periodicity in Long-term Optical Photometric and Spectral Variations of the Nearby Radio-Quiet Active Galactic Nucleus Ark 120

Yan-Rong Li, Jian-Min Wang, Zhi-Xiang Zhang +15

We study the long-term variability in the optical monitoring database of Ark~120, a nearby radio-quiet active galactic nucleus (AGN) at a distance of 143 Mpc (z=0.03271). We compil…

Variation of ionizing continuum: the main driver of Broad Absorption Line Variability

Zhicheng He, Tinggui Wang, Hongyan Zhou +5

We present a statistical analysis of the variability of broad absorption lines (BALs) in quasars using the large multi-epoch spectroscopic dataset of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey D…

Swift observations of SMC X-3 during its 2016-2017 super-Eddington outburst

Shan-Shan Weng, Ming-Yu Ge, Hai-Hui Zhao +4

The Be X-ray pulsar, SMC X-3 underwent a giant outburst from 2016 August to 2017 March, which was monitored with the Swift satellite. During the outburst, its broadband flux increa…
