The Structure Function of Mid-infrared Variability in Low-redshift Active Galactic Nuclei
Using the multi-epoch mid-infrared (MIR) photometry from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer spanning a baseline of ∼10 yr, we extensively investigate the MIR variability of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at 0.15 < z < 0.4. We find that the ensemble structure function in the W1 band...
