The BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XVIII. Searching for Supermassive Black Hole Binaries in the X-rays

Tingting Liu, Michael Koss, Laura Blecha +15

Theory predicts that a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) could be observed as a luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN) that periodically varies on the order of its orbital tim…

Diagnosing Cosmic Ray Modified Shocks with H α Polarimetry

Jiro Shimoda, J. Martin Laming

A novel diagnostic of cosmic-ray modified shocks by polarimetry of H emissions is suggested. In a cosmic-ray modified shock, the pressure of cosmic rays is sufficiently high co…

NuSTAR Discovery of Dead Quasar Engine in Arp 187

Kohei Ichikawa, Taiki Kawamuro, Megumi Shidatsu +7

Recent active galactic nucleus (AGN) and quasar surveys have revealed a population showing rapid AGN luminosity variability by a factor of . Here we present the most drasti…

Multi-messenger tests of cosmic-ray acceleration in radiatively inefficient accretion flows

Shigeo S. Kimura, Kohta Murase, Peter Mészáros

The cores of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have been suggested as the sources of IceCube neutrinos, and recent numerical simulations have indicated that hot AGN coronae of Seyfert…

First Detection of Radio Linear Polarization in a Gamma Ray Burst Afterglow

Y. Urata, K. Toma, K. Huang +6

We report the first detection of radio polarization of a GRB afterglow with the first intensive combined use of telescopes in the millimeter and submillimeter ranges for GRB171205A…

The Event Horizon General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Code Comparison Project

Oliver Porth, Koushik Chatterjee, Ramesh Narayan +25

Recent developments in compact object astrophysics, especially the discovery of merging neutron stars by LIGO, the imaging of the black hole in M87 by the Event Horizon Telescope (…
