Petter, Grayson C.; Hickox, Ryan C.; Alexander, David M.; Geach, James E.; Myers, Adam D.; Rosario, David J.; Fawcett, Victoria A.; Klindt, Lizelke; Whalen, Kelly E. (2022-03-02)The observed optical colors of quasars are generally interpreted in one of two frameworks: unified models that attribute the color to the random orientation of the accretion disk along the line of sight, and evolutionary ... -
Host Dark Matter Halos of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer-selected Obscured and Unobscured Quasars: Evidence for Evolution
Petter, Grayson C.; Hickox, Ryan C.; Alexander, David M.; Myers, Adam D.; Geach, James E.; Whalen, Kelly E.; Andonie, Carolina P. (2023-03-23)Obscuration in quasars may arise from steep viewing angles along the dusty torus, or instead may represent a distinct phase of supermassive black hole growth. We test these scenarios by probing the host dark matter halo ... -
HOW CAN IMPROVING THE GENDER INCLUSIVITY OF MOBILITY AS A SERVICE FACILITATE ITS DIFFUSION?
