Cataclysmic Variables from Sloan Digital Sky Survey V -- the search for period bouncers continues

K. Inight, Boris T. Gänsicke, A. Schwope +25

SDSS-V is carrying out a dedicated survey for white dwarfs, single and in binaries, and we report the analysis of the spectroscopy of cataclysmic variables (CVs) and CV candidates…

Shedding New Light on Weak Emission-Line Quasars in the C-H Parameter Space

Trung Ha, Cooper Dix, Brandon M. Matthews +20

Weak emission-line quasars (WLQs) are a subset of Type 1 quasars that exhibit extremely weak LyN V 1240 and/or C IV 1549 emission lines. We investigate the relationship b…

Probing the Origin of Changing-look Quasar Transitions with Chandra

Qian Yang, Paul J. Green, Chelsea L. MacLeod +9

Extremely variable quasars can also show strong changes in broad-line emission strength and are known as changing-look quasars (CLQs). To study the CLQ transition mechanism, we pre…

The SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper Reverberation Mapping Project: Unusual Broad-Line Variability in a Luminous Quasar

Logan B. Fries, Jonathan R. Trump, Megan C. Davis +30

We present a high-cadence multi-epoch analysis of dramatic variability of three broad emission lines (MgII, H, and H) in the spectra of the luminous quasar ((5100Å) = $…
