EUCLIA - Exploring the UV/optical continuum lag in active galactic nuclei. I. a model without light echoing

Zhen-Yi Cai, Jun-Xian Wang, Fei-Fan Zhu +4

The tight inter-band correlation and the lag-wavelength relation among UV/optical continua of active galactic nuclei have been firmly established. They are usually understood withi…

On the UV/optical variation in NGC 5548: new evidence against the reprocessing diagram

Fei-Fan Zhu, Jun-Xian Wang, Zhen-Yi Cai +3

The reprocessing scenario is widely adopted in literature to explain the observed tight inter-band correlation and short lags in the UV/optical variations of active galactic nuclei…

The Faint End of the z=5 Quasar Luminosity Function from the CFHTLS

Ian D. McGreer, Xiaohui Fan, Linhua Jiang +1

We presents results from a spectroscopic survey of quasars in the CFHT Legacy Survey (CFHTLS). Using both optical color selection and a likelihood method we select 97 cand…

Does the evolution of the radio luminosity function of star-forming galaxies match that of the star-formation rate function?

Matteo Bonato, Mattia Negrello, Claudia Mancuso +9

The assessment of the relationship between radio continuum luminosity and star formation rate (SFR) is of crucial importance to make reliable predictions for the forthcoming ultra-…
