Optical and cm follow-ups of the Changing-Look event in Mkn 590
Biswaraj Palit, Abhijeet Borkar, Agata Różańska +5
The Changing-Look active galactic nucleus Mkn 590 is currently in a rejuvenated state, exhibiting a contemporaneous flux rise across X-rays, UV, optical and cm wavelengths. In this…
Counterpart identification and classification for eRASS1 and characterisation of the AGN content
M. Salvato, J. Wolf, T. Dwelly +44
[abridged] Accurately accounting for the AGN phase in galaxy evolution requires a large, clean AGN sample. This is now possible with SRG/eROSITA. The public Data Release 1 (DR1, Ja…
BlazEr1: The eROSITA Blazar Catalog. Blazars and Blazar Candidates in the First eROSITA Survey
S. Haemmerich, A. Gokus, F. McBride +28
Aims. eROSITA, on board the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft, performed its first X-ray all-sky survey (eRASS1) between December 2019 and June 2020. It detected about 93000…
A new Bowen Fluorescence Flare and Extreme Coronal Line Emitter discovered by SRG/eROSITA
Pietro Baldini, Arne Rau, Riccardo Arcodia +19
The nuclear transient eRASSt J012026.5-292727 (J012026 hereafter) was discovered in the second SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey (eRASS2). The source appeared more than one order of magni…
Long Term Reverberation Mapping of Iron Coronal Lines in MKN 110
Charles Yin, Andy Lawrence, Martin Ward +2
We present flux measurements of the coronal lines [Fe VII] and [Fe X] spanning three decades, in the highly variable Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) MKN 110. These coronal lines are…
Discovery of extreme Quasi-Periodic Eruptions in a newly accreting massive black hole
Lorena Hernández-García, Joheen Chakraborty, Paula Sánchez-Sáez +27
Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are rapid, recurring X-ray bursts from supermassive black holes, believed to result from interactions between accretion disks and surrounding matter…
eRO-ExTra: eROSITA extragalactic non-AGN X-ray transients and variables in eRASS1 and eRASS2
Iuliia Grotova, Arne Rau, Mara Salvato +19
(Abridged) While previous X-ray studies showed the dominance of regular active galactic nuclei (AGN) variability, a small fraction of sources arise from more exotic phenomena such…
