Extreme accretion events: TDEs and changing‐look AGN
Abstract We present a review of the topics of X‐ray stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing‐look active galactic nuclei (AGN). Stars approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be tidally disrupted and accreted. TDEs were first discovered in the X‐ray regime and appear as luminous, giant‐amplitude flares from inactive galaxies.

HST UV Spectroscopy of the Dwarf Starburst Galaxy Pox 186
Studying the galaxies responsible for reionization is often conducted through local reionization-era analogs; however, many of these local analogs are too massive to be representative of the low-mass star-forming galaxies that are thought to play a ...

Abstract Star‐forming and starburst galaxies (SBGs), which are well‐known cosmic‐ray (CR) reservoirs, are expected to emit gamma rays and neutrinos predominantly via hadronic collisions. In this work we analyze the 10‐year Fermi‐Low Energy Technique (LAT) spectral energy distributions of 13 nearby galaxies by means of a physical model that accounts for

Merger Signatures are Common, but not Universal, in Massive, Recently Quenched Galaxies at z ∼ 0.7
We present visual classifications of merger-induced tidal disturbances in 143 M _* ∼ 10 ^11 M _⊙ post-starburst galaxies at z ∼ 0.7 identified in the $\mathrm{SQuIGG}\vec{L}{\rm{E}}$ Sample.

Chemical abundances in the dwarf galaxy NGC 4163 based on the nebular and auroral emission lines
Abstract We constructed an oxygen abundance map and N/O ratio map of the unusually low excitation dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4163 based on publicly available spectroscopy obtained by the MaNGA survey. We detected auroral emission line [O II]λλ$$ \lambda \lambda $$7320,7330 which allows us to measure chemical abundance by direct Te$$ {\mathrm{T}}_e ...

Rapid Quenching of Galaxies at Cosmic Noon
The existence of massive quiescent galaxies at high redshift seems to require rapid quenching, but it is unclear whether all quiescent galaxies have gone through this phase and what physical mechanisms are involved.

Cosmic ray transport in starburst galaxies [PDF]
Starburst galaxies are efficient γ-ray producers, because their high supernova rates generate copious cosmic ray (CR) protons, and their high gas densities act as thick targets off which these protons can produce neutral pions and thence γ-rays.

Extreme submillimetre starburst galaxies [PDF]
We have used two catalogues, a Herschel catalogue selected at 500 μm (HerMES) and an IRAS catalogue selected at 60 μm (RIFSCz), to contrast the sky at these two wavelengths. Both surveys demonstrate the existence of “extreme” starbursts, with star-formation rates (SFRs) > 5000 M⊙ yr−1.
