The evolution of obscured AGN across cosmic time -- A large quasar survey for the 2040s
Tanya Urrutia, Darshan Kakkad, Paula Sánchez-Sáez +21
We propose a large quasar demographic optical multi-object spectroscopic (MOS) survey targeting over 50 million AGN candidates up to the highest redshifts possible in the optical (…
Optical Continuum Reverberation Mapping of a Candidate IMBH in a Nearby Seyfert 1 Galaxy
Wenwen Zuo, Hengxiao Guo, Jingbo Sun +25
To investigate the short-term variability and determine the size of the optical continuum emitting region of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), we carried out high-cadence, mul…
AGN STORM 2: X. The origin of the interband continuum delays in Mrk 817
Hagai Netzer, Michael R. Goad, Aaron J. Barth +26
The local (z=0.0315) AGN Mrk 817, was monitored over more than 500 days with space-borne and ground-based instruments as part of a large international campaign AGN STORM 2. Here, w…
AGN STORM 2: VIII. Investigating the Narrow Absorption Lines in Mrk 817 Using HST-COS Observations
Maryam Dehghanian, Nahum Arav, Gerard A. Kriss +39
We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk817 during an intensive multi-wavelength reverberation mapping campaign for 16 months. Here, we examine the behavior of narrow UV absorption lin…
