The SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper Reverberation Mapping Project: A Kinematically Variable Broad-Line Region and Consequences for Masses of Luminous Quasars
Logan B. Fries, Jonathan R. Trump, Keith Horne +27
We present a velocity-resolved reverberation mapping analysis of the hypervariable quasar RM160 (SDSS J141041.25+531849.0) at z = 0.359 with 153 spectroscopic epochs of data repres…
A hidden population of high-redshift double quasars unveiled by astrometry
Yue Shen, Yu-Ching Chen, Hsiang-Chih Hwang +6
Galaxy mergers occur frequently in the early universe and bring multiple supermassive black holes (SMBHs) into the nucleus, where they may eventually coalesce. Identifying post-mer…
The Search for Binary Supermassive Black Holes Amongst Quasars with Offset Broad Lines Using the Very Long Baseline Array
Peter Breiding, Sarah Burke-Spolaor, Michael Eracleous +4
In several previous studies, quasars exhibiting broad emission lines with >1000 km/s velocity offsets with respect to the host galaxy rest frame have been discovered. One leading h…
Blazar Sheath Illumination of the Outer Molecular Torus: A Resolution of the Seed Photon Problem for the far-GeV Blazar flares
Peter Breiding, Markos Georganopoulos, Eileen T. Meyer
Recent multi-wavelength work led by the Boston University blazar group (e.g., Marscher et al. 2010) strongly suggests that a fraction of the blazar flares seen by the Fermi Large A…
Fermi non-detections of four X-ray jet sources and implications for the IC/CMB mechanism
Peter Breiding, Eileen T. Meyer, Markos Georganopoulos +3
Since its launch in 1999, the Chandra X-ray observatory has discovered several dozen X-ray jets associated with powerful quasars. In many cases the X-ray spectrum is hard and appea…
