Accretion Flows in X--Ray Binaries and Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
Hard X-ray emission is ubiquitous in accreting black holes, both in Galactic binary systems and in Active Galactic Nuclei. I review the different spectra which can be seen from these systems, and possible ways of producing this emission. X-ray reflection should give an observational test of these scenarios, but we need better models before this can ...

ReveaLLAGN 0: First Look at JWST MIRI Data of Sombrero and NGC 1052

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the first results from the Revealing Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (ReveaLLAGN) survey, a JWST survey of seven nearby LLAGNs. We focus on two observations with the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI)’s Medium-Resolution Spectrometer of the ...

Reverberation Mapping of Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Reverberation mapping is a proven technique that is used to measure the size of the broad emission-line region and central black hole mass in active galactic nuclei. More ambitious reverberation mapping programs that are well within the capabilities of Hubble Space Telescope could allow us to determine the nature and flow of line-emitting gas in active

Radio Emission from High-redshift Active Galactic Nuclei in the JADES and CEERS Surveys

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Recent calculations indicate that radio emission from quasars at z ∼ 6–7 could be detected at much earlier stages of evolution, at z ∼ 14–15, by the Next-Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) and the Square Kilometer Array (SKA).

Starburst Clusters in Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2000
Galactic nuclei often harbor a disproportionately large amount of star formation activity with respect to their surrounding disks. Not coincidentally, the density of molecular material in galactic nuclei is often also much greater than that in disks (Table 1 in Kennicutt 1998).

The Black Hole-Host Galaxy Relation in Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2000
The masses of the central black holes of Active Galactic Nuclei estimated by the reverberation virial technique seem to be significantly smaller than predicted from the black hole mass-bulge luminosity relation for massive black holes detected by kinematic methods in less active and normal galaxies.

Ensemble Variability Properties of Active Galactic Nuclei in the SDSS DR17

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results from a study of ∼9600 broadline-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with host galaxies detected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 17.

Conference Summary: The Central Engine of Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
The 2006 meeting in Xi'an on the Central Engine of Active Galactic Nuclei covered the enormous and continuously expanding area of AGN research, from theory to the most sophisticated observations and from gamma-ray energies to long radio wavelengths.

Strongly Magnetized Accretion with Low Angular Momentum Produces a Weak Jet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the spherical accretion of magnetized plasma with low angular momentum onto a supermassive black hole, utilizing global general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations.
