3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope Mission White Paper I. Overall Architecture and Scientific Mission

We present the preliminary science concept and mission architecture of a 3.5-meter segmented-mirror robotic space telescope currently under study. The observatory is conceived as a versatile platform supporting wide-field cosmology and galaxy evolution, direct imaging and characterization of nearby planetary systems, time-domain and multi-messenger observations, compact-object studies, and Solar-System small-body science. These programs share requirements for angular resolution, photometric stability, rapid target acquisition, spectroscopy, and long-term observing efficiency. The telescope employs an 18-segment 3.5-meter primary mirror for high-angular-resolution imaging from the near-ultraviolet through the optical and near-infrared. The current baseline covers 0.2--1.5 $μ$m, with the wavelength for diffraction-limited performance to be set by the final wavefront-error budget. Wide-field imaging is intended for deep surveys, precision photometry, and repeated monitoring over approximately 10' $\times$ 10' to 30' $\times$ 30'. Spectroscopic modes with $R \sim 1000$ and higher-resolution options approaching $R \sim 5000$ are being considered for galaxy surveys, transient classification, compact-object spectroscopy, and targeted studies. A dedicated coronagraph is also being studied for direct observations of nearby exoplanetary systems, with a current raw-contrast goal of order $10^{-8}$ and further gains expected from calibration and post-processing. Candidate mission configurations include the Sun--Earth L2 region and alternative Earth orbits, with the final choice driven by science performance, thermal stability, communications, operations, and mission cost. This paper defines the current science requirements, baseline technical configuration, and engineering trade space for further development of the 3.5mST concept.

3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope Mission White Paper II. Key Scientific Mission: Wide-Field Cosmology and Galaxy Evolution

The 3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope uses an image slicer for all spectroscopic observations. The planning baseline uses $R \simeq 1000$ for the wide survey and retains selectable $R \simeq 5000$ bands for precision line measurements. The central science case is a dense emission-line galaxy redshift survey for baryon acoustic oscillations and redshift-space distortions. Supernova and quasar programs exploit the stability, multiplexing, and repeatability of space operations. The supernova tier measures rest-frame U and near-ultraviolet magnitudes that separate optical twins at subgroup precision to $z \simeq 0.9$--$1.1$ in standard visits and to $z \simeq 1.3$--$1.5$ in ten-hour stacks. Every wide-survey tile receives three spectroscopic orientations, and a joint scene reconstruction uses their different overlap geometries to recover the spectra. The flagship survey covers 100--300 deg$^2$ and targets $10^6$--$3 \times 10^6$ emission-line galaxies. A deep pencil-beam tier and a supernova time-domain tier complement the wide survey. The same observations provide a census of ultra-diffuse and low-surface-brightness galaxies, map intracluster light, and test cold, self-interacting, and fuzzy dark matter through dwarf-galaxy structure and low-mass halo abundance.

3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope Mission White Paper III. Key Scientific Mission: Exoplanet Science with a Coronagraph

This volume defines the exoplanet science program enabled by the dedicated high-contrast coronagraph in the baseline science payload of the 3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope. The observatory architecture incorporates the optical interfaces, wavefront sensing and control, pointing stability, and operations software required for coronagraphic observations from the outset. The observing strategy gives priority to the nearest stellar systems because they provide the most accessible laboratories for planetary exploration and the most likely destinations of future interstellar missions. The diffraction limit sets a reflected-light horizon of roughly 10--15 pc for planets at 1 AU and roughly 50--80 pc for Jupiter analogs. Within those horizons, the telescope can image nearby giant planets, obtain reflected-light spectra of their atmospheres, survey young systems and circumstellar disks, and support the habitability and biosignature programs that larger future missions will pursue. The wide-field imager complements the coronagraph through transit photometry, occurrence-rate statistics, and long-term monitoring of stellar magnetic activity. A systematic census of the nearest stellar neighbors provides a lasting reference for exoplanet science and future space exploration.

3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope Mission White Paper IV. Key Scientific Mission: Solar-System Small Bodies and Planetary Defense

The baseline 0.2--1.5 $μ$m observatory provides rapid-response astrometry, visible and near-infrared taxonomy, rotation and phase curves, recovery, and long-arc orbit improvement for near-Earth objects and other small bodies. The instrument study also evaluates calibrated throughput to 2.70 $μ$m with a 3.0 $μ$m operational band-edge goal. A reduction to 2.5 $μ$m remains the formal engineering off-ramp if thermal, detector, cooling, mass, power, or cost constraints require it. The 3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope does not carry a mid-infrared channel. Coordinated ground-based mid-infrared telescopes provide the thermal fluxes required to infer diameter and albedo, while the space mission supplies contemporaneous reflected-light measurements and observing geometry. The program combines recovery, physical characterization, orbit refinement, and covariance-based hazard assessment. Its CODES dynamics system and OGFinder-to-OpenOrb processing path connect measured astrometry to reproducible orbit solutions and close-approach predictions.

3.5-meter Segmented-Mirror Robotic Space Telescope Mission White Paper V. Key Scientific Mission: Compact-Object Time-Domain Science

An isolated compact object retains the point-source resolving power of the space-based slitless spectrograph. The baseline wavelength range is 0.2--1.5 $μ$m. The planning baseline uses $R \simeq 1000$ for broad and faint transient spectra and reserves selectable bands at $R \simeq 5000$ for accretion-disk profiles, velocity structure, and precision line ratios. Broad features can be measured after binning the native $R \simeq 5000$ data to lower resolution. Rapid-response spectroscopy follows gravitational-wave counterparts and kilonovae from hours to days. Repeated spectra of dwarf novae and compact binaries trace accretion state and orbital phase, while uninterrupted imaging of white dwarfs measures pulsation frequencies. The program combines mission-based monitoring with external alerts, including KGMT transient detections. The instrument study must preserve calibrated throughput to 2.70 $μ$m and evaluate a 3.0 $μ$m operational band edge, with 2.5 $μ$m retained as the formal engineering off-ramp. Mid-infrared imaging is not part of the adopted compact-object baseline.

Recycled Gas Dominates the Metal-rich Fuel of Supermassive Black Holes

Understanding the origin and chemical properties of gas accreted by supermassive black holes (SMBHs) is essential for linking black hole growth to galaxy evolution. Using a suite of 30 high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations, we investigate the chemical properties of gas accreted onto SMBHs in massive galaxies with stellar masses of $10^{10.9-11.9}\,\rm M_\odot$ and black hole masses of $10^{8.5-9.7}\,\rm M_\odot$ at $z=0$. By tracing the full cosmological histories of individual gas particles, we identify their origins and enrichment pathways. The accreted gas is classified into four categories: ``early'' gas accreted during the early assembly phase of the main halo, ``external'' gas originating from other galaxies or subhalos, ``recycled'' gas enriched through stellar evolution processes within the primary galaxy, including asymptotic giant branch (AGB) winds and supernova ejecta, and ``smooth'' gas accreted from the intergalactic medium. We find that recycled gas dominates the accretion budget and is already metal rich at early epochs. Gas from other origins typically undergoes gradual chemical enrichment within the galactic environment prior to black hole accretion. The mean abundance ratios show only weak redshift evolution and are broadly compatible with the high metallicities inferred for quasar broad-line regions. Our results suggest that metal-rich gas supply to SMBHs arises naturally from cosmological galaxy evolution and stellar recycling.

Modeling Dependence Structures in Astronomical Multi-Band Time Series Data via Multi-Output Gaussian Processes

Modern astronomical time-domain surveys routinely collect multi-band light curves that provide complementary information about the physical processes governing source variability. Gaussian processes (GPs) provide a flexible probabilistic framework for modeling irregularly sampled and noisy time-series data. While considerable attention has been devoted to developing covariance kernels for individual time series, comparatively less attention has been paid to the statistical representation of dependence among multiple photometric bands. In this work, we present a unified statistical framework for modeling such dependence structures using multi-output GPs. Within this framework, we consider two complementary formulations. The covariance-based formulation specifies dependence directly through matrix-valued covariance functions and emphasizes the stochastic properties of the observed light curves, including covariance functions and power spectral densities. In contrast, the latent-process formulation represents the observed light curves as transformations of latent GPs and emphasizes the physical mechanisms generating the observed dependence. To illustrate these formulations, we develop covariance-based and latent-process multi-output damped random walk models and derive their corresponding spectral representations. We further demonstrate the practical implications of dependence-structure modeling through applications to multi-band active galactic nucleus variability and continuum reverberation mapping. Rather than advocating a universally preferred formulation, this work provides a principled basis for selecting dependence structures according to the scientific objectives and clarifies how this choice influences the statistical characterization and scientific interpretation of stochastic variability in astronomical sources.

Comparing the Near-infrared Spectral Energy Distributions from Different Stellar Population Synthesis Models with SPHEREx Observations

While stellar population synthesis (SPS) models have been widely used for spectral analysis in optical wavelengths, their characteristics remain uncertain in the near-infrared (NIR) due to a relative lack of observed NIR spectra. The spectrophotometric data from SPHEREx are well-suited for investigating the performance of SPS models in the NIR, thanks to its wide wavelength coverage over $0.7-5.0~{\rm μm}$. In this work, we compare the observed SPHEREx data of SDSS compact galaxies, including 2,726 non-emission-line galaxies and 1,163 emission-line galaxies, to the NIR SEDs predicted from the full spectrum fitting of SDSS optical spectra. We use four different SPS models that extend into the NIR: E-MILES, Bruzual \& Charlot (BC03), Charlot \& Bruzual (CB19), and FSPS. We find that all four models tend to overpredict the stellar continuum at $2.4-5~{\rm μm}$ by $0.1-0.3~{\rm mag}$. This trend is particularly prominent for intermediate-age stellar populations ($\sim1-5~{\rm Gyr}$), suggesting a systematic bias in the NIR SED predictions of current SPS models. For stellar populations older than $5~{\rm Gyr}$, E-MILES shows relatively smaller offsets at $3.8-5~{\rm μm}$ compared to other models. Meanwhile, for emission-line galaxies, the SPS models underestimate the SED by up to $\sim0.5~{\rm mag}$ at longer wavelengths due to the contribution of non-stellar emission. Overall, these results highlight the necessity of refining the NIR stellar spectral features in SPS models, such as emissions from thermally pulsating asymptotic giant branch stars or molecular absorptions from cool stars.

A UV-to-Near-infrared QSO Composite Spectrum from the SPHEREx All-Sky Survey

We present a composite spectrum of $\sim 61,000$ type 1 SDSS QSOs (median $z \approx 1.26$), constructed using SPHEREx spectrophotometric data and covering a rest-frame wavelength range of $0.14-4.5~μ$m. The SPHEREx mission surveys the entire sky in 102 near-infrared spectral channels spanning $0.75-5.0~μ$m with a spectral resolution of $R \approx 35-130$, providing a unique dataset for building a statistically robust QSO composite. We find that the UV and optical continuum of the resulting composite can be described by a power law, $f_ν\propto ν^{α_ν}$, with a best-fit spectral index of $α_ν= -0.10$, while the near-infrared continuum is well-fit with a spectral index of $-1.46$. The power-law indices in both the optical and near-infrared regimes strongly depend on properties of QSOs, such that more luminous QSOs tend to exhibit flatter UV/optical and steeper near-infrared continua compared to those of less luminous ones. The IR-to-optical flux ratio decreases with increasing AGN luminosity, consistent with the predictions of the receding torus model. The line ratios of broad emission lines, including H$α$, Pa$β$, and Pa$α$, are in good agreement with predictions from Case B recombination, suggesting that internal extinction is almost negligible. The equivalent widths of these emission lines are proportional to AGN luminosity, contrary to the trend expected from the Baldwin effect. Finally, the shape of the composite is sensitive to host-galaxy contamination, which must be considered when utilizing this QSO composite for subsequent scientific applications.

New black hole mass calibrations and the fundamental plane of the broad-line region size, luminosity, and velocity

We present a new calibration of the broad-line region (BLR) size-luminosity-velocity relation using a sample of 157 AGNs with reliable Hbeta time-delay (\lag) measurements from Wang & Woo 2024. By incorporating the Eddington ratio as a third parameter, we effectively correct the systematic offset of high-Eddington AGNs in the traditional BLR size-luminosity relation. The resulting three-parameter fit defines a fundamental plane in the 3-D space of the \lag, optical luminosity, and Hbeta velocity, with an intrinsic scatter of 0.21 dex. This tight correlation reflects the coupled effects of gas kinematics, photoionization, and BLR geometry. In turn, we develop a new method to infer \lag\ from the combination of optical luminosity and Hbeta velocity, and derive single-epoch black hole mass estimators by adopting either the full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) or line dispersion ($σ$) of the Hbeta line profile as the velocity indicator. The derived \lag shows a ~0.1 dex scatter, depending on the choice of calibrations. We show that the previous mass estimates based on the two-parameter size-luminosity relation with a 0.5 slope can be overestimated by up to 0.5 dex, demonstrating that the new mass estimator substantially changes the cosmic black hole mass density and the growth of black hole seeds in the early universe.

Dynamical Modeling of the Broad-Line Region with High-Mass Active Galactic Nuclei and Constraints on the Virial Factor

We present the results of broad-line region (BLR) dynamical modeling for eight high-mass active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the Seoul National University AGN Monitoring Project, by constraining BLR geometry and kinematics as well as black hole (BH) mass ($M_{\rm BH}$). We find that the H$β$-emitting BLRs are best described as thick disks viewed at intermediate inclinations, with emission preferentially originating from the far side of the BLR. BLR kinematics show a combination of rotational, inflowing and outflowing components. By comparing the $M_{\rm BH}$ from dynamical modeling with the virial products based on reverberation lags and line widths, we determine the virial factor $f$ for individual AGNs. Combining our sample with those $M_{\rm BH}$ consistently determined from BLR dynamical modeling, yielding a total of 38 objects, we derive a virial factor for future $M_{\rm BH}$ estimation of log$_{10}({f})_{\rm pred}=0.69\pm0.21$ based on $σ_{\rm line,rms}$ and $-0.08\pm0.23$ based on FWHM$_{\rm mean}$. The derived virial factor is consistent with that inferred by aligning the reverberation-mapped AGNs with quiescent galaxies in the $M_{\rm BH}$-$σ_{\ast}$relation, supporting the assumption that local active and inactive galaxies follow the same $M_{\rm BH}$-$σ_{\ast}$ relation. Our updated $f$ values exhibit an intrinsic dispersion of $\sim0.2$ dex, which allows for a more precise $M_{\rm BH}$ estimates than those based on the $M_{\rm BH}$-$σ_{\ast}$ relation. Our sample extends the dynamical modeling-based reverberation sample to $M_{\rm BH}$ $\sim$ [$10^8$, $10^{8.5}$] $M_{\odot}$ range, where the virial factor from the the AGN $M_{\rm BH}$-$σ_{\ast}$ relation remains poorly constrained, underscoring the unique value of dynamical modeling analysis in constraining the $M_{\rm BH}$ of the most massive BHs.

Can BLR line profile shape improve single-epoch black hole mass estimates?

The virial coefficient ($f$), which is meant to encapsulate broad-line region (BLR) geometry and kinematics, remains one of the largest sources of systematic uncertainty in black hole mass estimates for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). While the use of a sample average $\langle f \rangle$ enables black hole mass estimates across large samples and cosmological distances, individual AGNs may deviate from this average due to differences in BLR structure and viewing angle. In previous work, we reported marginal evidence for a correlation between $f$ and the shape of the broad H$β$ emission line, $\log_{10}(\mathrm{FWHM}/σ)$. In this work, we update our sample to include ten new sources with CARAMEL BLR dynamical modeling, increasing both the black hole mass range and statistical power of our analysis. We find marginal evidence for a correlation between $f$ and $\log_{10}(\mathrm{FWHM}/σ)$, with a slope and intrinsic scatter consistent with previous results. The confirmation of this trend across a larger sample further supports the idea that line profile shape may reflect BLR properties in a way that directly impacts $f$. If confirmed with future BLR dynamical modeling of sources within a wider range of $\log_{10}(\mathrm{FWHM}/σ)$, this relationship could enable empirical estimates of the virial coefficient and improve single-epoch black hole mass estimates across cosmic time.

BASS. LI. Cool gas supply of HI-massive local Seyfert galaxies

We present neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) imaging observations of 22 HI-rich ($M_{\rm HI} \gtrsim 10^{9.7} M_\odot$), hard X-ray-selected local Seyferts to explore how cool gas is supplied to active galactic nuclei (AGN) hosts. The sample predominantly resides in group-like, gas-rich environments. About 80% (18/22) of the galaxies have HI-detected neighbors, 61% (11/18) of which clearly exhibit strong lopsidedness, one-sided gas tails, and/or gas structures connecting to nearby companion galaxies, suggesting gas exchange histories. We examine the HI size-mass relation and star formation properties of these HI-rich AGN hosts, finding no systematic deviations from known scaling relations. In most cases, our samples are the most massive systems within their respective groups, implying that our sample is more likely to acquire gas rather than lose it. Interestingly, galaxies with more extended HI disks show stronger AGN activity. Considering that extended HI is often associated with external processes, this finding suggests that environmentally accreted gas - through galaxy interactions and gas exchange with neighboring systems - may have played a role in supplying additional fuel to the AGNs in our sample. Notably, the HI extent-AGN activity correlation becomes even tighter for those AGN hosts whose neighboring galaxies are gas poor or lack HI, further supporting externally supplied gas as a fuel source.

A Modified 3D Biconical Outflow Model: Spatial Constraints on AGN-driven Outflows

We present a modified outflow model and its application to constrain ionized outflow properties of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). By adding a rotating disk component to the biconical outflow model of Bae & Woo, we find that models with a rotating disk require faster launching velocities ($\lesssim$ 1500 km s$^{-1}$) than outflow-only models to be consistent with the observed gas kinematics of local type 2 AGNs. We perform Monte Carlo simulations to reproduce the observed distribution of gas kinematics of a large sample ($\sim$ 39,000), constraining the launching velocity and opening angle. While the launching velocity is moderate for the majority of the local AGNs, the notable cases of 2 - 5 % show strong outflows with $V_{max} \sim 1000-1500$ km s$^{-1}$. By examining the seeing effect based on the mock integral field unit data, we find that the outflow sizes measured based on velocity widths tend to be overestimated when the angular size of the outflow is comparable to or smaller than the seeing. This result highlights the need for more careful treatments of the seeing effect in the outflow size measurement, yet it still supports the lack of global feedback by gas outflows for local AGNs.

Environment and Gas Fraction in Type-2 AGN versus Non-AGN Galaxies

We investigate the environmental parameters and gas fraction (f$_{gas}$) properties of type~2 AGN and non-AGN galaxies, utilizing a large sample of galaxies from SDSS DR7 with z $\le$ 0.3. We find that the environment affects type~2 AGN and non-AGN galaxies in similar ways and does not impact the strength of AGN-driven outflows. The f$_{gas}$ of type~2 AGN and non-AGN host galaxies show no variation between group and isolated environments, suggesting that host galaxy gas content is largely independent of large-scale environment. We find that type~2 AGN host galaxies possess systematically lower f$_{gas}$ than their non-AGN counterparts when matched in stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR). This suggests that AGN activity plays a significant role in regulating the molecular gas reservoir and, consequently, the star formation processes within galaxies. We find that Type~2 AGNs exhibiting strong outflows are associated with higher gas fractions, higher star-formation rates, and younger stellar populations than those with weak or no outflows. This may indicate either concurrent star formation in gas-rich systems hosting powerful outflows, or a time delay between AGN activity and its effect on star formation consistent with a delayed AGN feedback scenario.

Scaling Relations of the Dusty Torus with Luminosity and the Broad-Line Region

We measure and compare the size of the dusty torus with active galactic nucleus (AGN) luminosity and the size of the broad-line region (BLR), using a sample of 182 AGNs with the best H$β$ lag measurements. After correcting for accretion-disk contamination, torus sizes are determined from the time lags of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer W1 and W2 band light curves relative to the optical band variability based on the interpolated cross-correlation function (ICCF) analysis and the Multiple and Inhomogeneous Component Analysis. We find that the torus size from the W1-band (W2-band) tightly correlates with the 5100~Å continuum luminosity with an intrinsic scatter of 0.15-0.16 dex and the best-fit slope of $0.35 \pm 0.03$ ($0.33 \pm 0.03$), which is clearly shallower than the expected 0.5 slope from the sublimation radius-luminosity relation. We find a moderate negative trend that higher Eddington AGNs tend to have smaller torus sizes than expected from the best-fit, suggesting the Eddington ratio plays a role in flattening the torus size-luminosity relation. By comparing the torus size with the H$β$ reverberation time lag for a subsample of 67 AGNs, we find that the torus size is a factor of $\sim 10$ and $\sim 14$ larger than the BLR size, respectively for W1 and W2 bands. The torus size based on the W1 (W2) band correlates with the BLR size with the best-fit slope of $1.28 \pm 0.16$ ($1.10 \pm 0.15$), which is comparable but slightly steeper than a linear correlation.

Spectroscopic Reverberation Mapping for SARM: The Case of Mrk 1048 and Mrk 618

Robust extragalactic distance measurements are crucial for resolving the persistent discrepancy in the value of the Hubble constant (H$_0$)). Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), through their compact and variable broad-line regions (BLRs), enable the determination of geometric distances when reverberation mapping (RM) is combined with spectroastrometry(SA). We report results from a spectroscopic RM campaign (October 2022 to March 2023) targeting two narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies, Mrk 1048 and Mrk 618, using 3.6-m DOT and 2-m HCT. High-cadence spectro-photometric monitoring was carried out using onboard instruments such as ADFOSC, HFOSC, and TANSPEC, resulting in well-sampled continuum and emission line light curves. The observed fractional variability ($F_{\mathrm{var}}$) ranged from 4% to 14% across the $g$-band, H$β$, and H$α$ light curves. The time lags were measured using the interpolated cross-correlation function (ICCF), PyI$^{2}$CCF, and \textsc{JAVELIN} methods. In the rest frame, the ICCF analysis yields H$β$ lags of $10.5^{+2.6}_{-4.2}$ days for Mrk 1048 and $10.2^{+3.4}_{-2.9}$ days for Mrk 618, while the corresponding H$α$ lags are $18.7^{+5.3}_{-5.4}$ and $14.4^{+4.6}_{-10.5}$ days, respectively. The emission-line widths, measured from the rms spectra using $σ_{\mathrm{line}}$, give virial black hole mass estimates of $6.3^{+2.0}_{-2.1} \times 10^7\,M_\odot$ for Mrk 1048 and $1.2^{+0.4}_{-0.6} \times 10^7\,M_\odot$ for Mrk 618. These results will serve as a basis for absolute geometric distance calibration when combined with VLTI/GRAVITY spectro-astrometric measurements, thereby contributing to the development of AGNs as standardizable cosmological probes.

A Comparison of Star Formation Rates by Different Tracers in Nearby Galaxies

We utilize a large sample of $\sim$113,000 galaxies ($z < 0.3$) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey with high-quality data to compare star formation rates (SFRs) across multiple diagnostic methods and examine their connection to Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) strength, indicated by Eddington ratio. Our sample encompassed star-forming (SF), composite, Seyfert, and LINER galaxies. Our analysis utilizes various SFRs indicators, including observed infrared flux ($\rm SFR_{FIR}$) from AKARI/Herschel ($\sim$4,100 sources), the MPA-JHU catalog ($\rm SFR_{Dn4000}$), the ANN catalog ($\rm SFR_{ANN}$), the GSWLC catalog ($\rm SFR_{SED}$ and $\rm SFR_{MIR}$), as well as \OII\ and \Ha\ emission lines ($\rm SFR_{[OII]}$ and $\rm SFR_{Hα}$). Within SF galaxies, SFRs measurements from different tracers exhibited differences, with offsets and scatter below 0.26 dex and 0.29 dex, respectively. Moreover, non-SF galaxies (composite, Seyfert, and LINER) displayed discrepancies among SFR tracers, particularly for LINER galaxies, with offsets below 0.86 dex and a scatter of 0.57 dex. Additionally, our findings revealed robust correlations between SFRs and specific SFRs (sSFRs) with Eddington ratios. Eddington ratio exhibited gradual transitions in the (s)SFRs-stellar mass diagrams. Galaxies with high Eddington ratios displayed high star formation activity, similar to blue SF galaxies. Furthermore, we observed decreasing sSFR trends from SF galaxies to composite, Seyfert, and LINER galaxies. Our results may provide insight into our understanding of (s)SFRs traced by different approaches and their connection to AGN activities.
