Mass of the active galactic nucleus black hole XMMUJ134736.6+173403 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
A recent study of the X-ray source XMMUJ134736.6+173403 has revealed a strong quasi-periodic modulation in the X-ray flux. The observation of two quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) that occur on a daily timescale and exhibit a 3:1 frequency ratio strongly supports the evidence for the presence of an active galactic nucleus black hole (AGN BH).

Enhanced Black Hole Mergers in Active Galactic Nucleus Disks due to Precession-induced Resonances

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Recent studies have shown that active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks can host sources of gravitational waves. Compact binaries can form and merge in AGN disks through their interactions with the gas and other compact objects in the disk.

New Conformally Invariant Born–Infeld Models and Geometrical Currents

open access: yesPhysics
A new conformally invariant gravitational generalization of the Born–Infeld (BI) model is proposed and analyzed from the point of view of symmetries. Taking a geometric identity involving the determinant functions detfBμν, Fμν with the Bach Bμν and the ...

Dissecting the active galactic nucleus in Circinus, I : peculiar mid-IR morphology explained by a dusty hollow cone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Recent high angular resolution observations resolved for the first time the mid-infrared (MIR) structure of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN). Surprisingly, they revealed that a major fraction of their MIR emission comes from the polar regions. This is

Elliptical Galaxy in the Making: The Dual Active Galactic Nuclei and Metal-enriched Halo of Mrk 273 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A systematic analysis of the X-ray emission from the nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxy Mrk 273 was carried out by combining new 200 ksec Chandra data with archived 44 ksec data.

X-Ray Flares in the Long-term Light Curve of Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus M81*

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Most active galactic nuclei at the center of the nearby galaxies have supermassive black holes accreting at sub-Eddington rates through hot accretion flows or radiatively inefficient accretion flows, which efficiently produce jets.

X-ray Photons in the CO 2-1 'Lacuna' of NGC 2110

open access: yes, 2019
A recent ALMA study of the Seyfert 2 Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) NGC 2110 by Rosario et al. (2019) has reported a remarkable lack of CO 2-1 emission from the circumnuclear region, where optical lines and H2 emission are observed, leading to the ...

The Peculiar Variable X-Ray Spectrum of the Active Galactic Nucleus PKS 2005–489

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
PKS 2005−489 is a well-known, bright southern BL Lac object that has been detected up to TeV energies. In a low-flux state it exhibits the expected multiwavelength double-peaked spectrum in the radio− γ -ray band.

MULTI-PHASE NATURE OF A RADIATION-DRIVEN FOUNTAIN WITH NUCLEAR STARBURST IN A LOW-MASS ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEUS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The structures and dynamics of molecular, atomic, and ionized gases are studied around a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN) with a small ( 2 × 10 6 M ⊙ ) black hole using three-dimensional (3D) radiation–hydrodynamic simulations.
