- The Large Sky Area Multi-object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) Quasar Survey: The Fourth and Fifth Data Releases (2018, background): “For instance, it provides a large database for searching changing-look AGNs which shows appearance or disappearance of their broad emission lines (e.g., McElroy et al. 2016; MacLeod et al. 2016).”
- PS16dtm: A Tidal Disruption Event in a Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxy (2017, background): “Invoking timescale arguments, MacLeod et al. (2016) and Gezari et al. (2016) argue that the changing-look quasars they studied are better explained by intrinsic accretion state changes rather than variable obscuration.”
- Completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Cosmological implications from two decades of spectroscopic surveys at the Apache Point Observatory (2020, background): “Arguably the biggest surprise in quasar astrophysics from SDSS was changing-look quasars that change from broad line quasars with strong continua to narrow line systems with weak continua over the course of a few years (LaMassa et al. 2015; MacLeod et al. 2016; Dexter et al. 2019).”
- Discovery of 21 New Changing-look AGNs in the Northern Sky (2017, background): “Lately, this term is widen to describe objects with optical spectral type transitions (e.g. Denney et al. 2014; LaMassa et al. 2015; MacLeod et al. 2016; Ruan et al. 2016; Runnoe et al. 2016; McElroy et al. 2016; Gezari et al. 2017).”
