Radiative Forcing and Ozone Depletion of a Decade of Satellite Megaconstellation Missions

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Satellite megaconstellations (SMCs) are driving rapid increases in rocket launch and re‐entry rates, emitting pollutants throughout the atmosphere. The environmental impact of SMCs lacks characterization to determine the need for regulation. We utilize a global 3D emission inventory of recent (2020–2022) space activity that distinguishes SMC ...

Natal Kick by Early-asymmetrical Pairs of Jets to the Neutron Star of Supernova Remnant S147

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze the bipolar morphology of the jet-shaped core-collapse supernova remnant (CCSNR) S147 and its neutron star (NS) kick velocity, and suggest that two pairs of unequal, opposite jets contributed to the NS kick velocity.

Planetary Nebula Morphologies Indicate a Jet-Driven Explosion of SN 1987A and Other Core-Collapse Supernovae

open access: yesGalaxies
I demonstrate the usage of planetary nebulae (PNe) to infer that a pair of jets shaped the ejecta of the core-collapse supernova (CCSN) SN 1987A. The main structure of the SN 1987A inner ejecta, the ‘keyhole’, comprises two low-intensity zones.

Gas Accretion from a Neighbouring Galaxy Fuels the Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nucleus in NGC 4278

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
How a seemingly “dead” host galaxy provides fuel for its active galactic nucleus (AGN) remains an unresolved problem. Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we present a new high-sensitivity atomic-hydrogen (H i ...

Jet precession in active galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1988
The formation and evolution of massive binary black holes in galactic nuclei are studied with respect to the loss-cone filling model for the fueling of massive black holes in AGN during the final stage of galaxy mergers. A relation between the precession period of the jet and the fueling rate of the central hole has been obtained.

Jet Interactions with the Hot Halos of Clusters and Galaxies

open access: yes, 2007
X-ray observations of cavities and shock fronts produced by jets streaming through hot halos have significantly advanced our understanding of the energetics and dynamics of extragalactic radio sources. Radio sources at the centers of clusters have dynamical ages between ten and several hundred million years.

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.

Mergers, Radio Jets, and Quenching Star Formation in Massive Galaxies: Quantifying Their Synchronized Cosmic Evolution and Assessing the Energetics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The existence of a population of massive quiescent galaxies with little to no star formation poses a challenge to our understanding of galaxy evolution.

Turbulence and Star Formation Suppression in Elliptical Galaxies: The Role of Active Galactic Nucleus Jet–Wind Interaction

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Winds and jets are symbiotic when the accretion rate is low, according to black hole accretion theory. Both components are potentially important for active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback, but previous works typically include only jets with free ...
