Galaxy 3D Shape Recovery using Mixture Density Network
Suk Yee Yong, K. E. Harborne, Caroline Foster +3
Since the turn of the century, astronomers have been exploiting the rich information afforded by combining stellar kinematic maps and imaging in an attempt to recover the intrinsic…
Probing Quasar Viewing Angle with the Variability Structure Function
Ji-Jia Tang, Christian Wolf, John Tonry +3
Given the anisotropic emission from quasar accretion discs, their viewing angle affects estimates of the quasar luminosity, black-hole mass and Eddington ratio. Discs appear overlu…
SPARKESX: Single-dish PARKES data sets for finding the uneXpected -- A data challenge
Suk Yee Yong, George Hobbs, Minh T. Huynh +6
New classes of astronomical objects are often discovered serendipitously. The enormous data volumes produced by recent high-time resolution, radio-telescope surveys imply that effi…
Simulating high-time resolution radio-telescope observations
Rui Luo, George Hobbs, Suk Yee Yong +10
We describe a new software package for simulating channelised, high-time resolution data streams from radio telescopes. The software simulates data from the telescope and observing…
Determining Quasar Orientation
Suk Yee Yong, Rachel L. Webster, Anthea L. King +3
Since the discovery of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their subclasses, a unification scheme of AGN has been long sought. Orientation-based unified models predict that some of th…
Astro2020 Science White Paper - Quasar Microlensing: Revolutionizing our Understanding of Quasar Structure and Dynamics
Leonidas Moustakas, Matthew O'Dowd, Timo Anguita +20
Microlensing by stars within distant galaxies acting as strong gravitational lenses of multiply-imaged quasars, provides a unique and direct measurement of the internal structure o…
HST imaging of four gravitationally lensed quasars
Nicholas F. Bate, Georgios Vernardos, Matthew J. O'Dowd +7
We present new HST WFPC3 imaging of four gravitationally lensed quasars: MG 0414+0534; RXJ 0911+0551; B 1422+231; WFI J2026-4536. In three of these systems we detect wavelength-dep…
Using the Properties of Broad Absorption Line Quasars to Illuminate Quasar Structure
Suk Yee Yong, Anthea L. King, Rachel L. Webster +3
A key to understanding quasar unification paradigms is the emission properties of broad absorption line quasars (BALQs). The fact that only a small fraction of quasar spectra exhib…
The Kinematics of Quasar Broad Emission Line Regions Using a Disk-wind Model
Suk Yee Yong, Rachel L. Webster, Anthea L. King +3
The structure and kinematics of the broad line region (BLR) in quasars are still not well established. One popular BLR model is the disk-wind model that offers a geometric unificat…
The Intrinsic Far-UV Spectrum of B1422+231
M. O'Dowd, N. F. Bate, R. L. Webster +3
We present new spectroscopy of the z=3.62 gravitationally lensed quasar B1422+117 from the Gemini North GMOS integral field spectrograph. We observe significant differential magnif…
Black Hole Mass Estimation: How good is the virial estimate?
Suk Yee Yong, Rachel L. Webster, Anthea L. King
Black hole mass is a key factor in determining how a black hole interacts with its environment. However, the determination of black hole masses at high redshifts depends on seconda…
