Characterization of a C‐RED One camera for astrophotonical applications

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 8-9, October-November 2023., 2023
Abstract To better understand the impact of the avalanche gain applied in the detector technology and apply this technology in our in‐house astrophotonic projects, we have characterized a C‐RED One camera and produced a stable and reliable method for calculating the system gain at any desired avalanche gain setting.

Modeling the Central Supermassive Black Hole Mass of Quasars via the LSTM Approach

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
One of the fundamental questions about quasars is related to their central supermassive black holes. The reason for the existence of these black holes with such a huge mass is still unclear, and various models have been proposed to explain them. However,

Perturbative Solution of the Einstein Constraints with Spin and Momentum Far Away From a Binary Source in the Bowen‐York Formalism

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 71, Issue 8-9, September 2023., 2023
Abstract The momentum and Hamiltonian constraints of vacuum Einstein equations, within the Bowen‐York formalism, for two interacting black holes in close separation, with anti‐parallel spins and anti‐parallel linear momenta is studied. An analytical solution using perturbation theory is given.

The Role of Primordial Kicks on Black Hole Merger Rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Primordial stars are likely to be very massive $\geq30\Msun$, form in isolation, and will likely leave black holes as remnants in the centers of their host dark matter halos in the mass range $10^{6}-10^{10}\Ms$. Such early black holes, at redshifts z$\

A tool to understand emission mechanisms of blazars through their high‐energy gamma‐ray emission

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 6, August 2023., 2023
The blazar SED is characterized by two energy components. Evidence suggests that the low‐energy component is generated by the synchrotron mechanism, but for the high‐energy component, the mechanism is still uncertain. Two main models have been proposed to explain this emission. According to the leptonic model, a correlation between the emission of both

Supermassive Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2019
In the following black hole model, electrons and positrons form a neutral gas which is confined by gravitation. The smaller masses are supported against gravity by electron degeneracy pressure. Larger masses are supported by ideal gas and radiation pressure. In each case, the gas is a polytrope which satisfies the Lane-Emden equation.

Unraveling the enigmatic soft x‐ray excess: Current understanding and future perspectives

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 6, August 2023., 2023
Abstract This article explores various theoretical models proposed to explain the soft x‐ray excess phenomenon, including warm Comptonization, ionized reflection models, and ionized outflowing disc winds. The soft x‐ray excess is better understood thanks to crucial observations made by ROSAT, XMM‐Newton, and eROSITA.

Multiwavelength astrophysics of the blazar OJ 287 and the project MOMO

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023
Abstract We are carrying out the densest and longest multiyear, multiwavelength monitoring project of OJ 287 ever done. The project MOMO (Multiwavelength Observations and Modeling of OJ 287) covers wavelengths from the radio to the high‐energy regime. A few selected observations are simultaneous with those of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT).
