Fast Outflowing Warm Absorbers in Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy PG 1001+054 Revealed by HST/COS Spectra
Xiao-Dan Fu, Junfeng Wang, Xiaoyu Xu +1
Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) Galaxies are an important type of active galactic nucleus (AGN), generally expected to be accreting at high Eddington rate. The properties of their out…
The Nearest Neutron Star Candidate in a Binary Revealed by Optical Time-domain Surveys
Ling-Lin Zheng, Mouyuan Sun, Wei-Min Gu +19
The near-Earth (within pc) supernova explosions in the past several million years can cause the global deposition of radioactive elements (e.g., Fe) on Earth. The…
A White Dwarf-Main Sequence Binary Unveiled by Time-Domain Observations from LAMOST and TESS
Ling-Lin Zheng, Wei-Min Gu, Mouyuan Sun +16
We report a single-lined white dwarf-main sequence binary system, LAMOST J172900.17+652952.8, which is discovered by LAMOST's medium resolution time-domain surveys. The radial velo…
A long-period pre-ELM system discovered from LAMOST medium-resolution survey
Zhi-Xiang Zhang, Ling-Lin Zheng, Wei-Min Gu +16
We present LAMOST~J041920.07+072545.4 (hereafter J0419), a close binary consisting of a bloated extremely low mass pre-white dwarf (pre-ELM WD) and a compact object with an orbital…
A dynamically discovered and characterized non-accreting neutron star -- M dwarf binary candidate
Tuan Yi, Wei-Min Gu, Zhi-Xiang Zhang +26
Optical time-domain surveys can unveil and characterize exciting but less-explored non-accreting and/or non-beaming neutron stars (NS) in binaries. Here we report the discovery of…
Supermassive Black Hole and Broad-line Region in NGC~5548: Results from Five-season Reverberation Mapping
Kai-Xing Lu, Jin-Ming Bai, Jian-Min Wang +9
NGC 5548 is one of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected for our long-term spectroscopic monitoring with the Lijiang 2.4~m telescope, aiming at investigating the origin and evo…
Velocity-resolved Reverberation Mapping of Changing-look Active Galactic Nucleus NGC~4151 During Outburst Stage: Evidence for Kinematics Evolution of Broad-line Region
Sha-Sha Li, Hai-Cheng Feng, H. T. Liu +6
Changing-look active galactic nucleus NGC~4151, which has attracted a lot of attention, is undergoing the second dramatic outburst stage in its evolutionary history. To investigate…
Searching for compact objects in binaries with Gaia DR3
Jin-Bo Fu, Wei-Min Gu, Zhi-Xiang Zhang +4
We search for compact objects in binaries based on Gaia DR3. A sample of ten targets is derived under the conditions: radial velocity variable, low temperature ($T_{\rm eff} < 6000…
Accretion Disk Size Measurements of Active Galactic Nuclei Monitored by the Zwicky Transient Facility
Wei-Jian Guo, Yan-Rong Li, Zhi-Xiang Zhang +2
We compile a sample of 92 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z<0.75 with photometric light curves from the archival data of the Zwicky Transient Facility and measure the accret…
Spectroastrometry and Reverberation Mapping: the Mass and Geometric Distance of the Supermassive Black Hole in the Quasar 3C 273
Yan-Rong Li, Jian-Min Wang, Yu-Yang Songsheng +4
The quasar 3C 273 has been observed with infrared spectroastrometry (SA) on broad Pa line and optical reverberation mapping (RM) on broad H line. SA delivers information abou…
