Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

3.9 day orbital modulation in the TeV gamma-ray flux and spectrum from the X-ray binary LS 5039
New observations of LS 5039, a High Mass X-ray Binary comprising a massive star and compact object, were carried out with the High Energy Stereoscopic System of Cherenkov Telescopes (H.E.S.S.) in 2005 at very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray energies.

Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy [PDF]
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has become an active astrophysical discipline with four confirmed sources of TeV gamma rays, two plerionic supernova remnants (SNRs) and two BL Lac objects (BL Lacs). An additional nine objects (one plerion, three shell-type SNRs, one X-ray binary, and four BL Lacs) have been detected but have not been confirmed by ...

ABSTRACT The goal of this study is to confirm the feasibility of the use of digitized low dispersive MtWilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \alpha $$ survey astronomical photographic plates for modern astrophysical research. The detection of highly redshifted objects, such as early galaxies and quasars, is fundamental to understanding the universe's ...

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Upper Limits on the Gamma-Ray Emission from the Microquasar V4641 Sgr
Following a recent detection of TeV radiation by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory and the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory, coincident with the direction of the microquasar V4641 Sgr, we search for possible GeV emission from this ...

A π‐conjugated carbazole (p‐CBZ) layer is electro‐polymerized on BiVO4 to form a p–n heterojunction that enhances charge separation and suppresses surface recombination, while a NiOOH co‐catalyst accelerates oxygen evolution kinetics. The synergistic BVO/p‐CBZ/NiOOH photoanode delivers a high photocurrent density and long‐term stability for efficient ...
