Key result from the studies of AGNs variability is the estimated mass of a supermassive black hole (SMBH), which resides in the center of an AGN. Moreover, the spectral variability of AGN can be used to study the structure and physics of the broad line region, which in general can be hardly directly observed. Here we review the current status of AGNs variability investigations in Serbia, in the perspectives of the present and future monitoring campaigns.Read More
