A UV to X-Ray View of Soft Excess in Type 1 Active Galactic Nuclei. I. Sample Selection and Spectral Profile

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A core sample of 59 unobscured type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with simultaneous XMM-Newton X-ray and UV observations is compiled from the archives to probe the nature of soft X-ray excess (SE).

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

The Halo Occupation Distribution Modeling of X-Ray-selected Active Galactic Nuclei at 0.6 < z < 2.6 in the COSMOS Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We conduct precise measurements of active galactic nucleus (AGN) clustering at z ∼ 1 and z ∼ 2 by measuring the two-point cross-correlation function (CCF) between galaxies and X-ray-selected AGNs, and the two-point autocorrelation function (ACF) of ...

An accessible microfluidic perfusion platform for time‐restricted control of zebrafish embryonic patterning

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the dynamic nature of developmental networks requires live imaging techniques capable of capturing real‐time developmental processes in wild‐type and mutant embryos as they are exposed to pharmacological perturbations. A peculiar developmental patterning process in early vertebrate embryos is the sequential segmentation of ...

Shocks, Winds, and a Torus: the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) Resolves the Active Nucleus of NGC 4151

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present mid-infrared (MIR) observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 using the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI). We took open-loop Fizeau images with 66–104 mas (5.8–9.1 pc) resolution in the N -band (at 8.7 and 10.5  μ m), using ...

NuSTAR Observation of the TeV-detected Radio Galaxy 3C 264: Core Emission and the Hot Accretion Flow Contribution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
3C 264 is one of the few FRI radio galaxies with detected TeV emission. It is a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN) and is generally associated with a radiatively inefficient accretion flow (RIAF).

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Time-evolving Diagnostic of the Ionized Absorbers in NGC 4051. I. High-resolution Time-averaged Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a high-resolution X-ray spectroscopic study of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 using two XMM-Newton high-resolution Reflection Grating Spectrometer observations.

AMUSE-Antlia. I. Nuclear X-Ray Properties of Early-type Galaxies in a Dynamically Young Galaxy Cluster

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
To understand the formation and growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and their coevolution with host galaxies, it is essential to know the impact of environment on the activity of active galactic nuclei (AGNs).

A Low‐Power Radioisotope XRF Spectrometer for Detection of Light Elements on Planetary Missions

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current X‐ray spectrometers for in situ geochemical analysis on planetary missions typically rely either on X‐ray tubes, which demand electrical power and add mass and thermal complexity, or on alpha particle X‐ray spectrometers (APXS) that use rare 244Cm$$ {}^{244}\mathrm{Cm} $$ sources, and come with severe concerns on radiation safety and ...
