WE SEEK TO CONSTRAIN MODELS OF QUASAR ACCRETION DISKS BY EXPLORING DIFFERENCES IN THE VARIABILITY PROPERTIES FOR EXTREMA (HIGH/ LOW ACCRETION RATE HIGH/LOW BLACK HOLE MASS) AMONG LUMINOUS QUASARS FROM THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY. WITH K2 DATA WE CAN DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE TWO MOST COMMON STATISTICAL MODELS OF QUASAR VARIABILITY: A DAMPED HARMONIC OSCILLATOR AND A DAMPED RANDOM WALK. WE WILL CREATE A PUBLIC LEGACY DATABASE OF LIGHT CURVES AND VARIABILITY PROPERTIES FOR UP TO 279 LUMINOUS QUASARS SCHEDULED TO BE OBSERVED IN K2 CAMPAIGNS 18 AND 19. THESE OBJECTS HAVE 0.5<Z<2.2 BLACK HOLE MASSES RANGING FROM 10^8 TO 10^10 SOLAR MASSES AND EDDINGTON RATIOS FROM -1.5 TO 0 DEX. WE WILL CONCENTRATE OUR EFFORTS ON 1) THOSE 23 OBJECTS OBSERVED IN ONE SDSS EPOCH AND ALSO IN 3 K2 EPOCHS (CAMPAIGNS 5 16 AND 18) AND 2) THOSE 102 OBJECTS OBSERVED IN DOZENS OF SDSS EPOCHS AND ALSO TWO K2 EPOCHS (CAMPAIGNS 12 AND 19). THESE OBJECTS WILL BECOME A CRUCIAL LEGACY DATABASE FOR VARIABILITY INVESTIGATIONS OF QUASARS AS THE NEW K2 OBSERVATIONS ENABLE INVESTIGATION OF TIME BASELINES FROM 30 MINUTES TO A DECADE. AS A RESULT OUR WORK WILL HELP OPTIMIZE THE CADENCE OF FUTURE OBSERVATIONS BY TIME DOMAIN SURVEYS. THIS RESEARCH TEAM COMBINES EXPERTISE IN TIME SERIES ANALYSIS VARIABILITY STUDIES OF AGN STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF LARGE SURVEYS MULTI-WAVELENGTH OBSERVATIONS OF QUASARS AND HAS DEMONSTRATED EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH BOTH KEPLER DATA AND QUASAR VARIABILITY IN GENERAL.
