Seyfert 2 galaxies show detectable optical variability, enabling estimates of scattering region sizes consistent with the obscuring torus via amplitude matching to Seyfert 1s.
CL-AGN host galaxies exhibit a 29% merger fraction (about 2x higher than non-CL-AGN controls) with morphology indicating modest disturbances, based on non-parametric metrics and visual inspection of DESI images.
Mass-scaled DRW damping timescales in AGNs follow a linear relation with black hole mass (slope 0.35-0.50) for both jetted and non-jetted sources, supporting universal accretion physics.
