Exploring Quasar Variability with ZTF at 0 < z < 3: A Universal Relation with the Eddington Ratio

Quasars, powered by accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs), exhibit significant variability, offering insights into the physics of accretion and the properties of the central engines. In this study, we analyze photometric variability and its correlation with key quasar properties, including...
