Observational Molecular Astronomy: Exploring the Universe Using Molecular Line Emissions
, 2013 Molecular line emissions offer researchers exciting opportunities to learn about the evolutionary state of the Milky Way and distant galaxies. This text provides a detailed introduction to molecular astrophysics and an array of useful techniques for observing astronomical phenomena at millimetre and submillimetre wavelengths.

Observational Constraints on Black Hole Spin [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020 The spin of a black hole is an important quantity to study, providing a window into the processes by which a black hole was born and grew. Furthermore, spin can be a potent energy source for powering relativistic jets and energetic particle acceleration.
