AGN Science
Contributed talks on AGN.
This session highlights the emerging AGN ecosystem surrounding Rubin LSST, from multiwavelength follow-up and Deep-Drilling Field science to the discovery of wandering massive black holes, changing-look AGNs, and new cosmological applications of quasar variability. Together, these talks showcase how Rubin's vast time-domain dataset will revolutionize our understanding of supermassive black holes across cosmic time.
We will begin with a brief introduction to the AGN Science Collaboration and proceed with the talks. Each talk is expected to be 12 minutes (+ 3 minutes for Q&A). If time permits, we will end with a round of discussions on AGN follow-up strategies and resources.
