Fortschritte 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.

Investigation of some galactic and extragalactic gravitational phenomena [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2012 Here we present a short overview of the most important results of our investigations of the following galactic and extragalactic gravitational phenomena: supermassive black holes in centers of galaxies and quasars, supermassive black hole ...

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

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

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

Multiwavelength astrophysics of the blazar OJ 287 and the project MOMO
Astronomische 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).

Searching for overlooked TDEs in the 4XMM catalogue
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023 Abstract Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are usually discovered as bright transients, either in the X‐ray or optical/UV band. These events are often characterized by a “super‐soft” emission in the X‐ray band, which has not been observed in any other extragalactic source, with few exceptions (novae and supersoft active galactic nuclei, AGN), which can ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Numerous observations have shown that almost all galaxies in our Universe host supermassive black holes (SMBHs), but there is still much debate about their formation and evolutionary processes. Recently, gravitational waves (GWs) have been expected to be

Winds in ultraluminous X‐ray sources: New challenges
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023 Abstract Ultraluminous X‐ray sources (ULXs) are extreme X‐ray binaries shining above 1039 erg/s, in most cases as a consequence of super‐Eddington accretion onto neutron stars and stellar‐mass black holes accreting above their Eddington limit. This was understood after the discovery of coherent pulsations, cyclotron lines, and powerful winds.

Fourier spectral‐timing techniques for the study of accreting black holes
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 344, Issue 4, May 2023., 2023 Abstract The X‐ray signal from active galactic nuclei and black hole (BH) X‐ray binaries is highly variable on a range of timescales. This variability can be exploited to map the region of interest close to the BH, which is far too small to directly image for all but two BHs in the Universe.
