Physik in unserer Zeit, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 30-37, January 2025.Galaxien wie die Milchstraße sind umhüllt von einem gigantischen Kokon aus diffusem Gas. Aktuelle Forschungsergebnisse belegen, dass dieses zirkumgalakische Medium eine entscheidende Rolle für die Entstehung und Entwicklung von Galaxien spielt. Zusammenfassung Als zirkumgalaktisches Medium bezeichnet man die gasförmigen Hüllen von Galaxien, die sich ...

Recoiling Black Holes: Electromagnetic Signatures, Candidates, and Astrophysical Implications
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) may not always reside right at the centers of their host galaxies. This is a prediction of numerical relativity simulations, which imply that the newly formed single SMBH, after binary coalescence in a galaxy merger, can receive kick velocities up to several 1000 km/s due to anisotropic emission of gravitational waves ...

Relativistic Jets in Gamma-Ray-Emitting Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies [PDF]
, 2019 Before the launch of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope satellite only two classes of active galactic nuclei (AGN) were known to generate relativistic jets and thus to emit up to the γ -ray energy range: blazars and radio galaxies, both hosted in giant ...

Probing extreme black‐hole outflows on short timescales via high spectral‐resolution x‐ray imagers
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 6-7, July-August 2024.Abstract We investigate outflows and the physics of super‐Eddington versus sub‐Eddington regimes in black hole systems. Our focus is on prospective science using next‐generation high‐resolution soft x‐ray instruments. We highlight the properties of black hole ultraluminous x‐ray source (ULX) systems in particular. Owing to scale invariance in accreting

The Cosmic History of Black Hole Growth from Deep Multiwavelength Surveys
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Significant progress has been made in the last few years on understanding how supermassive black holes form and grow. In this paper, we begin by reviewing the spectral signatures of active galactic nuclei (AGN) ranging from radio to hard X‐ray wavelengths.

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

The Kiloparsec-scale Influence of the AGN in NGC 1068 with SALT RSS Fabry–Pérot Spectroscopy
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present Fabry–Pérot (FP) imaging and longslit spectroscopy of the nearby Seyfert II galaxy NGC 1068 using the Robert Stobie Spectrograph (RSS) on the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) to observe the impact of the central active galactic nucleus (

Star formation in southern Seyfert galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 We have produced radio maps, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array, of the central regions of six southern type 2 Seyfert galaxies (NGC 1365, 4945, 6221, 6810, 7582 and Circinus) with circumnuclear star formation, to estimate the relative contribution of star formation activity compared to activity from the active galactic nucleus (AGN).

AGN Obscuration and the Unified Model
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Unification Models of Active Galactic Nuclei postulate that all the observed differences between type 1 and type 2 objects are due to orientation effects with respect to the line of sight to the observer. The key ingredient of these models is the obscuring medium, historically envisaged as a toroidal structure on a parsec scale.
