The case for inflow of the broad-line region of active galactic nuclei

C. Martin Gaskell, Rene W. Goosmann

The high-ionization lines of the broad-line region (BLR) of thermal active galactic nuclei (AGNs) show blueshifts of a few hundred km/s to several thousand km/sec with respect to t…

The flaring HI disk of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2683

B. Vollmer, F. Nehlig, R. Ibata

New deep VLA D array HI observations of the highly inclined nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2683 are presented. Archival C array data were processed and added to the new observations. To…

Evidence of Fanning in the Ophiuchus Stream

B. Sesar, A. M. Price-Whelan, J. G. Cohen +11

The Ophiuchus stellar stream presents a dynamical puzzle: its old stellar populations ( Gyr) cannot be reconciled with (1) its orbit in a simple model for the Milky Way po…

Satellite accretion in action: a tidally disrupting dwarf spheroidal around the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 253

Aaron J. Romanowsky, D. Martinez-Delgado, Nicolas F. Martin +7

We report the discovery of NGC 253-dw2, a dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy candidate undergoing tidal disruption around a nearby spiral galaxy, NGC 253 in the Sculptor group: the fir…

Searching for X-ray sources in nearby late-type galaxies with low star formation rates

K. Chatterjee, P. Kaaret, M. Brorby +4

Late type non-starburst galaxies have been shown to contain X-ray emitting objects, some being ultraluminous X-ray sources. We report on XMM-Newton observations of 11 nearby, late-…

Quantum electrodynamical corrections to a magnetic dipole in general relativity

J. Pétri

Magnetized neutron stars are privileged places where strong electromagnetic fields as high as $\BQ=4.4\times10^9$~T exist, giving rise to non-linear corrections to Maxwell equation…
