Antimatter Gravity and the Results of the ALPHA‐g Experiment

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 7, July 2024.
The recent results of the ALPHA‐g experiment, which show gravitational attraction between antihydrogen atoms and the Earth, seem to undermine the success of repulsive‐gravity models in the cosmological field. Analyzing the theory of CPT gravity, two solutions are found that are consistent with the experimental results, while preserving the large‐scale ...

An Extragalactic Widefield Search for Technosignatures with the Murchison Widefield Array

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
It is common for surveys that are designed to find artificial signals generated by distant civilizations to focus on galactic sources. Recently, researchers have started focusing on searching for all other sources within the field observed, including the

Probing extreme black‐hole outflows on short timescales via high spectral‐resolution x‐ray imagers

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 6-7, July-August 2024.
Abstract We investigate outflows and the physics of super‐Eddington versus sub‐Eddington regimes in black hole systems. Our focus is on prospective science using next‐generation high‐resolution soft x‐ray instruments. We highlight the properties of black hole ultraluminous x‐ray source (ULX) systems in particular. Owing to scale invariance in accreting

EIGER. VIII. First Stars Signatures in the Connection between O I Absorption and Galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the association between galaxies and neutral O i absorption systems at z  ∼ 6, which trace metal-enriched gas during the epoch of reionization.

The Study of Radio Flux Density Variations of the Quasar OJ 287 by the Wavelet and the Singular Spectrum Methods

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2016
Flux density variations of the extragalactic radio source OJ 287 are studied by applying the wavelet and the singular spectrum methods to the long-term monitoring data at 14.5, 8.0 and 4.8 GHz acquired at the University of Michigan Radio Astronomy ...

Hypercat : A Database for extragalactic astronomy

open access: yes, 1999
The Hypercat Database is developed at Observatoire de Lyon and is distributed on the WEB through different mirrors in Europe. The goal of Hypercat is to gather data necessary for studying the evolution of galaxies (dynamics and stellar contains) and particularly for providing a z=0 reference for these studies.

JWST imaging of the closest globular clusters—I. Possible infrared excess among white dwarfs in NGC 6397

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 6-7, July-August 2024.
Abstract We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of the globular cluster NGC 6397 and use them to extend to infrared wavelengths the characterization of the cluster's entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS). The data allows us to probe fundamental astrophysical WD properties and to search for evidence in their colors for (or against ...

Kant and extragalactic revolution in astronomy

open access: yesTheoria, Beograd, 2004
In this paper we briefly consider the role Kant's early philosophy, and notably his "island universes" hypothesis played in the history of astronomy. There are many reasons for this, including the coincidence of Kant's jubilee year with 80 years since Hubble's discovery (1924) of the extragalactic universe.

Environments of Luminous Low-frequency Radio Galaxies Since Cosmic Noon: Jet-mode Feedback Dominates in Groups

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Coupling between relativistic jets launched by accreting supermassive black holes and the surrounding gaseous media is a vital ingredient in galaxy evolution models.

Evolution of Low Surface Brightness Ultrathin Galaxies: The Role of Dark Matter Halo and Bar Formation on Disk Thickness

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate how stellar disks sustain their ultrathin structure throughout their evolution. We follow the evolution of ultrathin stellar disks with varying dark matter (DM) halo concentration ( c ) using collisionless N -body simulations with AREPO ...
