Powerful Radio Sources in the Southern Sky. I. Optical Identifications
Since the early sixties, our view of radio galaxies and quasars has been drastically shaped by discoveries made thanks to observations of radio sources listed in the Third Cambridge Catalog and its revised version (3CR).

A tool to understand emission mechanisms of blazars through their high‐energy gamma‐ray emission
The blazar SED is characterized by two energy components. Evidence suggests that the low‐energy component is generated by the synchrotron mechanism, but for the high‐energy component, the mechanism is still uncertain. Two main models have been proposed to explain this emission. According to the leptonic model, a correlation between the emission of both

Multiwavelength astrophysics of the blazar OJ 287 and the project MOMO
Abstract We are carrying out the densest and longest multiyear, multiwavelength monitoring project of OJ 287 ever done. The project MOMO (Multiwavelength Observations and Modeling of OJ 287) covers wavelengths from the radio to the high‐energy regime. A few selected observations are simultaneous with those of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT).

Extreme accretion events: TDEs and changing‐look AGN
Abstract We present a review of the topics of X‐ray stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing‐look active galactic nuclei (AGN). Stars approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be tidally disrupted and accreted. TDEs were first discovered in the X‐ray regime and appear as luminous, giant‐amplitude flares from inactive galaxies.

LRS Bianchi Type‐I String Cosmological Models in f(Q) Gravity
In the current study, we studied a f(Q)‐gravitational, anisotropic, locally rotationally symmetric (LRS), Bianchi type‐I spacetime universe. We have adopted the freely chosen function fQ=Q+αQ, where α is a model‐free parameter. We assumed that the universe is filled with dusty string fluid and that the shear scalar (σ) and the expansion scalar (θ) are ...

ENVIRONMENT DENSITY OF A GIANT RADIO STRUCTURE FOR GALAXIES AND QUASARS WITH STEEP RADIO SPECTRA [PDF]
Purpose: Estimate of the environment density of giant (with the linear size of about megaparsec) radio structures for galaxies and quasars with steep low-frequency spectra taken from the UTR-2 catalogue. Study of the cosmological evolution of environment

Chemical abundances in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4163 based on the nebular and auroral emission lines
Abstract We constructed an oxygen abundance map and N/O ratio map of the unusually low excitation dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4163 based on publicly available spectroscopy obtained by the MaNGA survey. We detected auroral emission line [O II]λλ$$ \lambda \lambda $$7320,7330 which allows us to measure chemical abundance by direct Te$$ {\mathrm{T}}_e ...

A Comprehensive Observational Study of the FRB 121102 Persistent Radio Source
FRB 121102 is the first fast radio burst to be spatially associated with a persistent radio source (QRS 121102), the nature of which remains unknown. We constrain the physical size of QRS 121102 by measuring its flux-density variability with the VLA from

Soft X‐Ray Imaging of Magnetopause Reconnection Outflows Under Low Plasma‐β Solar Wind Conditions
Abstract We examined soft X‐ray emission by the solar wind charge‐exchange process around the Earth's magnetosphere using a global magnetohydrodynamic simulation model. The dayside magnetopause reconnection heats and accelerates the plasma whereby the X‐ray emission becomes as bright as ∼6 × 10−6 eV cm−3 s−1 under the southward interplanetary magnetic ...

A Wideband Polarization Observation of Hydra A with the Jansky Very Large Array
We present the results of a wideband high-resolution polarization study of Hydra A, one of the most luminous FR I radio galaxies known and among the most well studied. The radio emission from this source displays extremely large Faraday rotation measures
