Galaxies Lighting Up: Discovery of Seventy New Turn-on Changing-look Quasars

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Qian Yang, Paul J. Green, Xue-Bing Wu, Michael Eracleous, Linhua Jiang | Summary: "Changing-look quasars" (CLQs), discovered less than a decade ago, show dramatic, rapid changes in optical/UV continuum and broad line emission. The majority of CLQs have been found dimming as "turn-off" CLQs because most selection […]
