THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN: X-RAYS DRIVE THE UV THROUGH NIR VARIABILITY IN THE 2013 ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEUS OUTBURST IN NGC 2617

B. J. Shappee, J. L. Prieto, D. Grupe, C. S. Kochanek et al.

Short summary

X-ray flux from the active galactic nucleus NGC 2617 increased over 10x, driving a subsequent ~10x rise in UV/optical continuum flux during a 2013 outburst.
