A research team has investigated quasar variability by tracking optical to mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths of variability information. This multiband joint analysis provides an opportunity to probe the dust structure in the quasar's central region and holds promise for revealing key properties such as its scale and distribution. It offers crucial observational evidence for refining the "unified model" of active galactic nuclei (AGNs).
