Cosmic Pairs: A DESI Census of Dual and Offset AGN as Precursors to Massive Black Hole Binaries
Ekaterine Dadiani, Antonella Palmese, Yihao Zhou +52
The paper presents a large, uniformly selected spectroscopic catalog of dual and offset active galactic nuclei from the first DESI data release, analyzing their host galaxy propert…
Stacked Reverberation Mapping of High Redshift Quasars in DESI. I. Feasibility Analysis
Rahma Alfarsy, R. E. A. Canning, Eva-Maria Mueller +49
The broad line region of quasars has long been probed by reverberation mapping techniques that measure time lags between continuum and broad emission line variations. Stacked rever…
Galaxy Clusters Selected via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect in 5 year data from the SPT-3G Main Survey
L. E. Bleem, M. Klein, K. Kornoelje +148
We report a new galaxy cluster catalog, selected using the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, from 5 years of observations of the SPT-3G Main field. Drawn from arcminute-resol…
Strong LensIng and Cluster Evolution (SLICE) with JWST: Early Results, Lens Models, and High-Redshift Detections
Catherine Cerny, Guillaume Mahler, Keren Sharon +24
We leverage JWST's superb resolution to derive strong lensing mass maps of 14 clusters, spanning a redshift range of and a mass range of $M_{500}\sim2-12 \times…
CROCS Data Release I: Constraints on the Hubble Constant
Luke Weisenbach, Sophie L. Newman, Kieran Graham +5
Recent cosmological surveys and datasets have highlighted a variety of tensions to the concordance model of our universe, CDM. Of particular interest is the Hubble tension, the…
A Kiloparsec-Scale Stellar Cavity in the Center of Abell402-BCG May be Caused by Dynamic Interactions with an Ultramassive Black Hole
Michael McDonald, Gourav Khullar, David Lagattuta +18
We present new observations from JWST NIRCam that reveal a striking kpc-wide cavity in the stellar distribution of the central galaxy in the cluster Abell402. Supporting data from…
