The Astrophysical JournalWe present the multiwavelength and environmental properties of 37 variability-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs), including 30 low-luminosity AGNs (LLAGNs), using a high cadence time-domain survey (All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae) from a ...

Changing-look active galactic nuclei
Nature Astronomy, 2023 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are known to show flux variability over all observable timescales and across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Over the past decade, a growing number of sources have been observed to show dramatic flux and spectral changes, both in the X-rays and in the optical/UV.

Midbrain PAG Astrocytes Modulate Mouse Defensive and Panic‐Like Behaviors
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Astrocytes in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) dynamically encode threat intensity and shape defensive action selection in mice. Real‐time Ca2+ imaging reveals robust astrocytic activation during predator odor and CO2 exposure. Aberrant astrocytic Ca2+ overactivation disrupts goal‐directed escape, biases behavior toward freezing, and induces ...

A UV to X-Ray View of Soft Excess in Type 1 Active Galactic Nuclei. II. Broadband Correlations
The Astrophysical JournalThe physical origin of soft X-ray excess (SE) is a long-lasting question, with two prevailing theories—“warm corona” and “ionized reflection”—dominating the discussion.

Substituent‐Based Modulation of Self‐Assembly and Immunogenicity of Amphipathic Peptides
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study systematically investigates how positional and subtle changes, such as substituents on the phenyl ring attached to short amphipathic peptides, influence their self‐assembly, fibril morphology, and immunogenic responses. ABSTRACT Self‐assembled peptide‐based biomaterials provide versatile platforms for biomedical uses, featuring customizable ...

Cosmic rays from active galactic nuclei
, 2008 Cosmic ray (CR) acceleration at the shock created by the expanding cocoons around active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is studied. It is shown that above the energy $10^{18}$ eV the overall energy spectrum of CRs, produced during the AGN evolution and released ...

Fast X-Ray Variability from the Coronae of Supermassive Black Holes
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe present the first systematic study of short-timescale X-ray variability in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGN), utilizing archival Chandra observations of approximately 3000 broad-line AGN selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Dark ...

Quantitative Stain Mapping in X‐Ray Virtual Histology
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Virtual histology promises 3D tissue examination without physical sectioning, yet has lacked the tissue‐specificity of conventional pathology. This work demonstrates the first quantitative three‐dimensional stain mapping at histologically relevant resolution, separating contrast agent from tissue to reveal cellular features such as nuclei. The approach

NuSTAR Detection of an Absorption Feature in ESP 39607: Evidence for an Ultrafast Inflow?
The Astrophysical JournalWe report the serendipitous discovery of an absorption feature at 4.8 keV in the NuSTAR spectra of ESP 39607, a Seyfert 2 galaxy at z = 0.201, observed in 2023 May and 2024 August. The feature is detected in both observations with individual significance
