Can winds driven by active galactic nuclei account for the extragalactic gamma-ray and neutrino backgrounds?

Ruo-Yu Liu, Kohta Murase, Susumu Inoue +2

Various observations are revealing the widespread occurrence of fast and powerful winds in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that are distinct from relativistic jets, likely launched f…

Exclusion of standard gravitons by LIGO observation

Richard Lieu

Dyson (2013) argued that the extraordinarily large number of gravitons in a gravitational wave makes them impossible to be resolved as individual particles. While true, it is shown…
