Prolate rotation and metallicity gradient in the transforming dwarf galaxy Phoenix

Nikolay Kacharov, Giuseppina Battaglia, Marina Rejkuba +7

Transition type dwarf galaxies are thought to be systems undergoing the process of transformation from a star-forming into a passively evolving dwarf, which makes them particularly…

Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project VI: reverberating Disk Models for NGC 5548

D. Starkey, Keith Horne, M. M. Fausnaugh +90

We conduct a multiwavelength continuum variability study of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548 to investigate the temperature structure of its accretion disk. The 19 overlapping continu…

X-ray selected BALQSOs

M. J. Page, F. J. Carrera, M. Ceballos +11

We study a sample of six X-ray selected broad absorption line (BAL) quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) from the XMM-Newton Wide Angle Survey. All six objects are classified as BALQSOs us…

XMMSL1 J074008.2-853927: a tidal disruption event with thermal and non-thermal components

R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +3

We study X-ray bright tidal disruption events (TDE), close to the peak of their emission, with the intention of understanding the evolution of their light curves and spectra. Candi…

Collisionless loss-cone refilling: there is no final parsec problem

Alessia Gualandris, Justin I. Read, Walter Dehnen +1

Coalescing massive black hole binaries, formed during galaxy mergers, are expected to be a primary source of low frequency gravitational waves. Yet in isolated gas-free spherical s…

The impact of protocluster environments at z = 1.6

N. A. Hatch, E. A. Cooke, S. I. Muldrew +4

We investigate the effects of dense environments on galaxy evolution by examining how the properties of galaxies in the z = 1.6 protocluster Cl 0218.3-0510 depend on their location…
