A Massive Black Hole 0.8 kpc from the Host Nucleus Revealed by the Offset Tidal Disruption Event AT2024tvd
Yuhan Yao, Ryan Chornock, Charlotte Ward +31
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) that are spatially offset from the nuclei of their host galaxies offer a new probe of massive black hole (MBH) wanderers, binaries, triples, and reco…
Panic at the ISCO: time-varying double-peaked broad lines from evolving accretion disks are common amongst optically variable AGN
Charlotte Ward, Suvi Gezari, Peter Nugent +12
About 3-10\% of Type I active galactic nuclei (AGN) have double-peaked broad Balmer lines in their optical spectra originating from the motion of gas in their accretion disk. Doubl…
Outlier Detection in the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey
Yan Liang, Peter Melchior, ChangHoon Hahn +3
We present an unsupervised search for outliers in the Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS) dataset from the DESI Early Data Release. This analysis utilizes an autoencoder to compress galaxy…
AGN on the move: A search for off-nuclear AGN from recoiling SMBHs and ongoing galaxy mergers with the Zwicky Transient Facility
Charlotte Ward, Suvi Gezari, Sara Frederick +16
A supermassive black hole (SMBH) ejected from the potential well of its host galaxy via gravitational wave recoil carries important information about the mass ratio and spin alignm…
A new class of pulsating hot subdwarfs
Thomas Kupfer, Evan B. Bauer, Kevin B. Burdge +22
Using high-cadence observations from the Zwicky Transient Facility at low Galactic latitudes, we have discovered a new class of pulsating, hot, compact stars. We have found four ca…
