Shock Waves in the Magnetic Reconnection in the Flares on the Accretion Disk of the Sgr A*

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Sgr A* often shows bright, episodic flares observationally, but the mechanism of the flares' intermittent brightening is not very clear. Many people believe the flares may be formed by the nonthermal particles, which can be a consequence of the magnetic ...

Disk Assembly of the Milky Way Suggested from the Time-resolved Chemical Abundance

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Both simulations and observations suggest that the disk assembly of galaxies is governed by the interplay between coplanar gas inflow, ex-planar gas outflow, and in situ star formation on the disk, known as the leaky accretion disk.

Probing the History of the Galaxy Assembly of the Counterrotating Disk Galaxy PGC 66551

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar counterrotation in disk galaxies directly relates to the complex phenomenon of the disk mass assembly believed to be driven by external processes, such as accretion and mergers.

Gas accretion in galactic disks

open access: yes, 2005
Evidence for the accretion of material in spiral galaxies has grown over the past years and clear signatures can be found in HI observations of galaxies.

A Sandwich Model for Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The spectral variability of changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) occurred on timescales of years to tens of years, posing a significant challenge to the standard thin disk model. In this work, we propose a sandwich model, including an optically

Directly Tracking the Rebrightening of a Supermassive Black Hole Accretion Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs) powers the most luminous persistent sources in the Universe, the so-called active galactic nuclei, whose emission is characterized by two distinct spectral components: thermal optical/ultraviolet (UV ...

Evidence for gas accretion in galactic disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
: Studies of the HI in galaxies have clearly shown that subtle details of the HI distribution and kinematics often harbour key information for understanding the structure and evolution of galaxies.
