DESCRIPTION:Speakers: William Brandt (Penn State University)\nThe Vera C. 
 Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)\, aiming to begin
  in early 2025\, will allow studies of the growing supermassive black hole
 s (SMBHs) in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) on a truly massive scale. After
  a brief review of the LSST from an AGN perspective\, I will describe the 
 planned selection of tens of millions of AGNs using the LSST plus multiwav
 elength data\, including with variability techniques. I will then highligh
 t examples of exciting LSST AGN variability investigations including massi
 ve general AGN variability studies\, photometric and spectroscopic reverbe
 ration mapping\, microlensing of small-scale AGN structure\, transient SMB
 H fueling events\, and candidate binary SMBHs. I will end by briefly descr
 ibing the LSST AGN Science Collaboration (AGN SC)\, currently composed of 
 about 160 members spanning the globe. The AGN SC aims to lead many of the 
 described investigations and is preparing for science with the petabyte de
 luge of LSST data.\n\nhttps://indico.unina.it/event/61/contributions/906/
