A Phenomenological Study of the Accretion Disk in the Super-Eddington AGN I Zw 1
Farin Drewes, Roberta Vieliute, Juan V. Hernández Santisteban +11
The structure of the accretion disk in AGN is still an unsolved question, especially how it may change with Eddington ratio. Here we examine the accretion disk in the super-Eddingt…
Departures from Standard Disk Predictions in Intensive Ground-Based Monitoring of Three AGN
Diego Gonzalez-Buitrago, Aaron J. Barth, Rick Edelson +42
We present ground-based, multi-band light curves of the AGN Mrk~509, NGC\,4151, and NGC\,4593 obtained contemporaneously with \sw\, monitoring. We measure cross-correlation lags re…
Echo mapping of the black hole accretion flow in NGC 7469
Raj Prince, Juan V. Hernández Santisteban, Keith Horne +20
Reverberation mapping (RM) can measure black hole accretion disc sizes and radial structure through observed time lags that should increase with wavelength as . Ou…
DW Cnc: a micronova with a negative superhump and a flickering spin
M. Veresvarska, S. Scaringi, C. Littlefield +15
Magnetic accreting white dwarfs in cataclysmic variables have been known to show bursts driven by different physical mechanisms; however, the burst occurrence is much rarer than in…
Bridging the Gap: OPTICAM Reveals the Hidden Spin of the WZ Sge Star GOTO 065054.49+593624.51
N. Castro Segura, Z. A. Irving, F. M. Vincentelli +14
WZ Sge stars are highly evolved accreting white dwarf systems (AWDs) exhibiting remarkably large amplitude outbursts (a.k.a. super-outbursts), typically followed by short rebrighte…
The luminosity-dependent contribution from the broad line region to the wavelength-dependent lags in Mrk 110
F. M. Vincentelli, I. McHardy, V. Hernández Santisteban +5
We have measured the wavelength-dependent lags between the X-ray, UV and optical bands in the high accretion rate () Active Galactic Nucleus Mrk 110 durin…
AGN STORM 2: I. First results: A Change in the Weather of Mrk 817
Erin Kara, Missagh Mehdipour, Gerard A. Kriss +69
We present the first results from the ongoing, intensive, multi-wavelength monitoring program of the luminous Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 817. While this AGN was, in part, selected for it…
On the multi-wavelength variability of Mrk 110: Two components acting at different timescales
F. M. Vincentelli, I. McHardy, E. M. Cackett +17
We present the first intensive continuum reverberation mapping study of the high accretion rate Seyfert galaxy Mrk 110. The source was monitored almost daily for more than 200 days…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Photometric g and i Light Curves
K. Kinemuchi, Patrick B. Hall, Ian McGreer +28
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) program monitors 849 active galactic nuclei (AGN) both spectroscopically and photometrically. The photometric observati…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: The M_BH-Host Relations at 0.2<z<0.6 from Reverberation Mapping and Hubble Space Telescope Imaging
Jennifer I-Hsiu Li, Yue Shen, Luis C. Ho +10
We present the results of a pilot Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging study of the host galaxies of ten quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) p…
Quest for the Donor Star in the Magnetic Precataclysmic Variable V1082 Sgr
G. Tovmassian, J. F. Gonzalez, M. -S. Hernandez +3
We obtained high-resolution spectra and multicolor photometry of V1082 Sgr to study the donor star in this 20.8 hr orbital period binary, which is assumed to be a detached system.…
An evolving jet from a strongly-magnetised accreting X-ray pulsar
J. van den Eijnden, N. Degenaar, T. D. Russell +4
Relativistic jets are observed throughout the Universe, strongly impacting their surrounding environments on all physical scales, from Galactic binary systems to galaxies and galax…
Multiwavelength observations of MASTER OT 075353.88+174907.6: a likely superoutburst of a long period dwarf nova system
A. S. Parikh, J. V. Hernández Santisteban, R. Wijnands +1
MASTER OT 075353.88+174907.6 was a blue optical transient reported by the MASTER-Net project on 2017 Oct 31. This source was previously detected by {\it GALEX} in its NUV band but…
The Space Density of Post-Period Minimum Cataclysmic Variables
J. V. Hernandez Santisteban, C. Knigge, M. L. Pretorius +2
Binary evolution theory predicts that accreting white dwarfs with sub-stellar companions dominate the Galactic population of cataclysmic variables (CVs). In order to test these pre…
Furiously Fast and Red: Sub-second Optical Flaring in V404 Cyg during the 2015 Outburst Peak
P. Gandhi, S. P. Littlefair, L. K. Hardy +25
We present observations of rapid (sub-second) optical flux variability in V404 Cyg during its 2015 June outburst. Simultaneous three-band observations with the ULTRACAM fast imager…
