The Search for Very High Energy γ-rays from Misaligned AGN [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this work is to study the potential for emission at very high energies (100 GeV) by misaligned active galactic nuclei (AGN) and the future prospects for observations of these objects with the next generation imaging atmospheric Cherenkov ...

Shocks, Winds, and a Torus: the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) Resolves the Active Nucleus of NGC 4151

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present mid-infrared (MIR) observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 using the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI). We took open-loop Fizeau images with 66–104 mas (5.8–9.1 pc) resolution in the N -band (at 8.7 and 10.5  μ m), using ...

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

The bulk kinetic power of radio jets in active galactic nuclei?

open access: yes, 2009
Based on the Konigl's inhomogeneous jet model, we estimate the jet parameters, such as bulk Lorentz factor Gamma, viewing angle theta and electron number density n(e) from radio very long-baseline interferometry and X-ray data for a sample of active ...

Study of the radio and optical properties of Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesCommunications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory, 2021
The investigation of the physical properties of active galactic nuclei is one of the most important tasks of astronomy. Until now, the properties of AGN have not been fully studied. Therefore, we have studied a number of important properties of AGN. For example, one of the main properties of AGN is the variability.

SDSS J110546.07+145202.4: The First Long-duration Radio Changing-look NLS1 Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
SDSS J110546.07+145202.4 stands out as a unique radio changing-look narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy that has brightened dramatically and shows an exceptionally long duration of its “on” phase.

Overview and Status of the International Celestial Reference Frame as Realized by VLBI

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Accurate measurement of angular positions on the sky requires a well-defined system of reference that is realized with accessible objects. The purpose of this study is to review the international standard realization of such a system, the International ...

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
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 ...

Varstrometry for Dual Active Galactic Nuclei Using Radio Interferometry: VaDAR with the VLBA

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Multiple active galactic nuclei (multi-AGN) are a known result of galaxy mergers. Therefore, they are an important tool for studying the formation and dynamical evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes. A novel method for the selection of multi-
