The Messy Nature of Fiber Spectra: Star–Quasar Pairs Masquerading as Dual Type 1 AGNs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Theoretical studies predict that the most significant growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) occurs in late-stage mergers, coinciding with the manifestation of dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and both major and minor mergers are expected to be ...

Time-evolving Diagnostic of the Ionized Absorbers in NGC 4051. I. High-resolution Time-averaged Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a high-resolution X-ray spectroscopic study of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 using two XMM-Newton high-resolution Reflection Grating Spectrometer observations.

The Response of Warm Absorbers to the Variations in the Ionizing Continuum in the Active Galaxy NGC 4051

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a time-resolved X-ray spectral analysis of the warm absorbers in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051, which has an active galactic nucleus (AGN), using observations from the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER).

Search and Characterization of Remnant Radio Galaxies in the XMM-LSS Deep Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The remnant phase of a radio galaxy is characterized by the cessation of active galactic nuclei activity, resulting in the jets ceasing to feed plasma to the radio lobes.

The Merging Galaxy Cluster Environment Affects the Morphology of Radio Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
It has previously been found that the galaxy cluster environment can affect the fueling and evolution of active galactic nuclei (AGN). This work examines the effect of the merging cluster environment on the properties of radio AGN by comparing the radio ...

NuSTAR Observes Two Bulgeless Galaxies: No Hard X-Ray AGN Detected in NGC 4178 or J0851+3926

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The discovery over the last several decades of low- and moderate-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in disk-dominated galaxies—which show no “classical” bulges—suggests that secular mechanisms represent an important growth pathway for supermassive ...

Stacking X-Ray Observations of “Little Red Dots”: Implications for Their Active Galactic Nucleus Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent James Webb Space Telescope observations have revealed a population of compact extragalactic objects at z ≳ 4 with red near-infrared colors, which have been dubbed as “Little Red Dots” (LRDs).

The Hobby–Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment Survey (HETDEX) Active Galactic Nuclei Catalog: The Fourth Data Release

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present the active galactic nuclei (AGN) catalog from the fourth data release (HDR4) of the Hobby–Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment Survey (HETDEX). HETDEX is an untargeted spectroscopic survey.

Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yes, 2010
This work represents the final year project for BSc Physics with Astrophysics degree and it mainly focuses on empirical investigation of the photometry of quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the UK Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) Infrared Sky Survey (UKIDSS) systems.
