HI Spectroscopy of Reverberation-Mapped Active Galactic Nuclei

Justin H. Robinson, Misty C. Bentz, Megan C. Johnson +2

We present HI 21 cm spectroscopy from the GBT for the host galaxies of 31 nearby AGNs with direct M measurements from reverberation mapping. These are the first pub…

Velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of five bright Seyfert 1 galaxies

G. De Rosa, M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier +99

We present the first results from a reverberation-mapping campaign undertaken during the first half of 2012, with additional data on one AGN (NGC 3227) from a 2014 campaign. Our ma…

Continuum Reverberation Mapping of the Accretion Disks in Two Seyfert 1 Galaxies

M. M. Fausnaugh, D. A. Starkey, Keith Horne +69

We present optical continuum lags for two Seyfert 1 galaxies, MCG+08-11-011 and NGC 2617, using monitoring data from a reverberation mapping campaign carried out in 2014. Our light…

Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. VII. Understanding the UV anomaly in NGC 5548 with X-Ray Spectroscopy

S. Mathur, A. Gupta, K. Page +147

During the Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project (STORM) observations of NGC 5548, the continuum and emission-line variability became de-correlated during the s…

Physical Properties of the B and Be Star Populations of h and chi Persei

Amber N. Marsh Boyer, M. Virginia McSwain, Christina Aragona +1

We present a study of the B and Be star populations of the Double Cluster h and chi Persei. Blue optical spectroscopy is used to first measure projected rotational velocity, V sin…
