X-ray spectral and flux variability of the microquasar GRS 1758-258 on timescales from weeks to years

Maria Hirsch, Katja Pottschmidt, David M. Smith +12

We present the spectral and timing evolution of the persistent black hole X-ray binary GRS 1758-258 based on almost 12 years of observations using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer P…

The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Limits on Gravitational Wave Memory

K. Aggarwal, Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker +58

The mergers of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) promise to be incredible sources of gravitational waves (GWs). While the oscillatory part of the merger gravitational wavef…

New hard-TeV extreme blazars detected with the MAGIC telescopes

MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +175

Extreme high-frequency peaked BL Lac objects (EHBLs) are blazars which exhibit extremely energetic synchrotron emission. They also feature non-thermal gamma-ray emission whose peak…

The nature of the broadband X-ray variability in the dwarf Seyfert galaxy NGC 4395

E. S. Kammoun, E. Nardini, A. Zoghbi +14

We present a flux-resolved X-ray analysis of the dwarf Seyfert 1.8 galaxy NGC 4395, based on three archival and one archival observations. The source is known…

The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Evolution of Gravitational Wave Background Statistics

J. S. Hazboun, J. Simon, S. R. Taylor +60

An ensemble of inspiraling supermassive black hole binaries should produce a stochastic background of very low frequency gravitational waves. This stochastic background is predicte…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…
