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…

Supermassive Black Holes with High Accretion Rates in Active Galactic Nuclei. XIII. Ultraviolet Time Lag of H Emission in Mrk 142

V. C. Khatu, S. C. Gallagher, K. Horne +17

We performed a rigorous reverberation-mapping analysis of the broad-line region (BLR) in a highly accreting () active galactic nucleus, Markarian 142 (…

Statistical Signatures of Nanoflare Activity. III. Evidence of Enhanced Nanoflaring Rates in Fully Convective stars as Observed by the NGTS

S. D. T. Grant, D. B. Jess, C. J. Dillon +11

Previous examinations of fully-convective M-dwarf stars have highlighted enhanced rates of nanoflare activity on these distant stellar sources. However, the specific role the conve…

Monthly quasi-periodic eruptions from repeated stellar disruption by a massive black hole

P. A. Evans, C. J. Nixon, S. Campana +12

In recent years, searches of archival X-ray data have revealed galaxies exhibiting nuclear quasi-periodic eruptions with periods of several hours. These are reminiscent of the tida…

Transit Timing Variations in the three-planet system: TOI-270

Laurel Kaye, Shreyas Vissapragada, Maximilian N. Gunther +69

We present ground and space-based photometric observations of TOI-270 (L231-32), a system of three transiting planets consisting of one super-Earth and two sub-Neptunes discovered…

AGN STORM 2: V. Anomalous Behavior of the CIV Light Curve in Mrk 817

Y. Homayouni, Gerard A. Kriss, Gisella De Rosa +49

An intensive reverberation mapping campaign on the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk817 using the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) revealed significant vari…
