A forward modelling approach to AGN variability -- Method description and early applications
Lia F. Sartori, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Kevin Schawinski +3
We present a numerical framework for the variability of active galactic nuclei (AGN), which links the variability of AGN over a broad range of timescales and luminosities to the ob…
BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XIII. The nature of the most luminous obscured AGN in the low-redshift universe
Rudolf E. Bär, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Kyuseok Oh +18
We present a multi wavelength analysis of 28 of the most luminous low-redshift narrow-line, ultra-hard X-ray selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) drawn from the 70 month Swift/BAT…
On the Prevalence of Super-Massive Black Holes over Cosmic Time
Johannes Buchner, Ezequiel Treister, Franz E. Bauer +2
We investigate the abundance of Super-Massive Black Hole (SMBH) seeds in primordial galaxy halos. We explore the assumption that dark matter halos outgrowing a critical halo mass M…
