Optical identification of a new cataclysmic variable from integral all sky survey: IGR J08390--4833
M. Revnivtsev, A. Kniazev, S. Sazonov +6
We have optically identified a recently discovered INTEGRAL source, IGR J08390--4833, with a cataclysmic variable, i.e. an accreting white dwarf in a binary system. The spectrum ex…
Correlated Variability in Blazars
Robert Wagner
Blazars are thought to emit highly-collimated outflows, so-called jets. By their close alignment to our line of sight, relativistic beaming effects enable us to observe these jets…
Cosmological evolution of supermassive black holes and AGN: a synthesis model for accretion and feedback
Andrea Merloni
The growth of supermassive black holes (SMBH) through accretion is accompanied by the release of enormous amounts of energy which can either be radiated away, as happens in quasars…
Reconciling the Metallicity Distributions of Gamma-ray Burst, Damped Lyman-alpha, and Lyman-break Galaxies at z=3
Johan P. U. Fynbo, J. Xavier Prochaska, Jesper Sommer-Larsen +2
We test the hypothesis that the host galaxies of long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) as well as quasar-selected damped Lyman-alpha (DLA) systems are drawn from the population of…
Where are the Cosmic Metals at z~3?
Jesper Sommer-Larsen, Johan P. U. Fynbo
The temperature distribution of the cosmic gas-phase oxygen at z~3 is determined by combining high resolution cosmological simulations with the observed, (rest-frame) V-band galaxy…
