On the Extremely X-ray Variable Active Galactic Nuclei in the XMM-LSS Field

Kavli Affiliate: Linhua Jiang | First 5 Authors: Zijian Zhang, Bin Luo, Linhua Jiang, W. N. Brandt, Jian Huang | Summary: We present a systematic investigation of extremely X-ray variable active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the $approx 5.3~{rm deg}^2$ XMM-SERVS XMM-LSS region. Eight variable AGNs are identified with rest-frame 2 keV flux density variability amplitudes […]

H I absorption line and anomalous dispersion in the radio pulses of PSR B1937+21

Kavli Affiliate: Kejia Lee | Summary:We use the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope to observe the bright millisecond pulsar PSR B1937+21 (J1939+2134) and record the data in the band from 1.0 to 1.5 GHz. We measure the neutral hydrogen (HI) emission and absorption lines near 1420 MHz ($λsimeq 21$ cm). We derive the kinematic distance […]

Spectroastrometry and Reverberation Mapping of Active Galactic Nuclei. II. Measuring Geometric Distances and Black Hole Masses of Four Nearby Quasars

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: The geometric distances of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are challenging to measure because of their exceptionally compact structure yet vast cosmic distances. A combination of spectroastrometry and reverberation mapping (SARM) of broad-line regions (BLRs) constitutes a novel means to probe […]
