Probing the Structure and Evolution of BASS AGN through Eddington Ratios
Tonima Tasnim Ananna, C. Megan Urry, Claudio Ricci +23
We constrain the intrinsic Eddington ratio (\lamEdd ) distribution function for local AGN in bins of low and high obscuration (log NH <= 22 and 22 < log NH < 25), using the Swift-B…
X-ray Coronal Properties of Swift/BAT-Selected Seyfert 1 Active Galactic Nuclei
Nikita Kamraj, Murray Brightman, Fiona A. Harrison +9
The corona is an integral component of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) which produces the bulk of the X-ray emission above 1--2 keV. However, many of its physical properties and the m…
BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XV: The High Frequency Radio Cores of Ultra-hard X-ray Selected AGN
Krista Lynne Smith, Richard F. Mushotzky, Michael Koss +14
We have conducted 22 GHz radio imaging at 1" resolution of 100 low-redshift AGN selected at 14-195 keV by the Swift-BAT. We find a radio core detection fraction of 96%, much higher…
Measuring Supermassive Black Hole Masses: Correlation between the Redshifts of the Fe III UV Lines and the Widths of Broad Emission Lines
E. Mediavilla, J. JimÉnez-Vicente, J. MejÍa-Restrepo +5
We test the recently proposed (Mediavilla et al. 2018) black hole mass scaling relationship based on the redshift {with respect to the quasar's rest frame} of the Fe III2039-21…
BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey: XVI. General Physical Characteristics of BAT Blazars
Vaidehi S. Paliya, M. Koss, B. Trakhtenbrot +12
The recently released 105-month {\it Swift}-Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) all-sky hard X-ray survey catalog presents an opportunity to study astrophysical objects detected in the dee…
A new class of flares from accreting supermassive black holes
Benny Trakhtenbrot, Iair Arcavi, Claudio Ricci +26
Accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can exhibit variable emission across the electromagnetic spectrum and over a broad range of timescales. The variability of active galacti…
