Direct SMBH Formation Driven by Runaway Stellar Collisions in Globally Unstable Stellar Systems
ABSTRACT The fueling problem addresses the ultimate fate of the reservoirs of gas and stars driven into the deepest gravitational potential wells of galaxies, thus it may contain the Universe's densest concentrations of gas and stars. This raises a key question: does the infalling material collapse directly into a supermassive black hole, or can it ...

OBSERVATIONAL EVIDENCE FOR ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI FEEDBACK AT THE PARSEC SCALE
In a hot accretion flow, the radiation from the innermost region of the flow propagates outward and heats the electrons at large radii via Compton scattering.

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 ...

ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Investigation of Stellar Kinematics and Ionized Gas Outflows in Local (U)LIRGs
We explore the properties of stellar kinematics and ionized gas in a sample of 1106 local (U)LIRGs from the AKARI telescope. We combine data from Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer and Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 13 to fit the spectral energy ...

ABSTRACT Sustainability assessment advances corporate social responsibility toward inclusive development. Widely recognized approaches prove inadequate for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), resulting in fragmented proliferation that hinders cumulative knowledge.

Science of active galactic nuclei with the GTC and CanariCam [PDF]
CanariCam is the facility mid-infrared (MIR) instrument for the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), a 10.4m telescope at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma. One of the science drivers for CanariCam is the study of active galactic nuclei (

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 ...

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids
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 ...
