Journal ArticleDOI
Reverberation Measurements for 17 Quasars and the Size-Mass-Luminosity Relations in Active Galactic Nuclei
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used spectro- photometrically monitored Palomar-Green quasars in order to obtain mea- surements of their emission lines and investigate the relationship between quasar luminosity, central black hole mass, and broad emission-line regions (BLRs) size in AGNs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarimetric observations of 15 active galactic nuclei at high frequencies: jet kinematics from bimonthly monitoring with the very long baseline array

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the properties of the jets of 15 active galactic nuclei obtained with the Very Long Baseline Array at 7 mm wavelength at 17 epochs from 1998 March to 2001 April.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from monitoring the multi-waveband flux, linear polarization, and parsec-scale structure of the quasar PKS 1510-089, concentrating on eight major γ-ray flares that occurred during the interval 2009.5.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a measure of the hard (2Y8 keV) X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of AGNs up to z � 5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term optical variability properties of the Palomar–Green quasars
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from a monitoring program of 42 quasars from the Palomar-Green sample, which was observed for seven years at the Wise Observatory, as part of a long-term effort to monitor AGN of various types.
