Exploring Possible Relations Between Optical Variability Time Scales and Broad Emission Line Shapes in AGN

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
Here we investigate the connection of broad emission line shapes and continuum light curve variability time scales of type-1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN).

THE FINAL SDSS HIGH-REDSHIFT QUASAR SAMPLE OF 52 QUASARS AT z > 5.7 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the discovery of nine quasars at identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data. This completes our survey of quasars in the SDSS footprint.

Understanding extreme quasar optical variability with CRTS – II. Changing-state quasars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
We present the results of a systematic search for quasars in the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey exhibiting both strong photometric variability and spectroscopic variability over a decadal baseline. We identify 111 sources with specific patterns of

Simultaneous liver T1, T2, and ADC MR fingerprinting using optimized motion‐compensated diffusion preparations: An initial validation on volunteers

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 2173-2189, November 2025.
Abstract Purpose To develop a novel MR fingerprinting sequence using optimized motion‐compensated diffusion preparations for simultaneous T1, T2, and ADC quantification of liver tissue in a single breath‐held scan. Methods A radial spoiled gradient echo acquisition with magnetization preparation modules for T1, T2, and ADC encoding is proposed.

Quasars Probing Quasars. IX. The Kinematics of the Circumgalactic Medium Surrounding z ∼ 2 Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract We examine the kinematics of the gas in the environments of galaxies hosting quasars at z ∼ 2. We employ 148 projected quasar pairs to study the circumgalactic gas of the foreground quasars in absorption. The sample selects foreground quasars with precise redshift measurements, using emission lines with precision ≲300 km s−1 and

Towards an Understanding of Changing-Look Quasars: An Archival Spectroscopic Search in SDSS

open access: yes, 2016
The uncertain origin of the recently-discovered `changing-looking' quasar phenomenon -- in which a luminous quasar dims significantly to a quiescent state in repeat spectroscopy over ~10 year timescales -- may present unexpected challenges to our ...

Modeling the Broad-Band Emission from the Gamma-Ray Emitting Narrow-Line Seyfert-1 Galaxies 1H 0323+342 and B2 0954+25A

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
Prior to the Fermi-LAT era, only two classes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) were thought to harbor relativistic jets that radiate up to gamma-ray energies: blazars and radio galaxies. The detection of variable gamma-ray emission from Narrow Line Seyfert

Development and demonstration of end‐to‐end testing for intra‐fraction motion‐managed workflows

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 52, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Background Intra‐fraction motion management techniques, including beam gating and intra‐fraction drift correction (IDC), have recently been introduced on the Unity MR‐linac (Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden) to mitigate the dosimetric impact of motion during treatment.

The Clustering of Simulated Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
We analyze the clustering properties of quasars simulated using a semianalytic model built on the Millennium Simulation, with the goal of testing scenarios in which black hole accretion and quasar activity are triggered by galaxy mergers. When we select quasars with luminosities in the range accessible by current observations, we find that predicted ...
