Probing the Physics of AGN: A Summary
R. D. Blandford
A summary critique is presented of the topics discussed at a workshop entitled ``Probing the Physics of Active Galactic Nuclei by Multi-wavelength Monitoring'' held at Goddard Spac…
Energy Release and Transport Processes in the Centers of Galaxies
R. D. Blandford
Observations over the past decade have verified, beyond reasonable doubt, that most galactic nuclei contain massive black holes. Hole masses are being measured and firm evidence fo…
Particles and Fields in Radio Galaxies: A Summary
R. D. Blandford
A summary is presented of a meeting on Particles and Fields in Radio Galaxies held in Oxford in August 2000. Recent detailed studies of radio maps and the first X-ray images from C…
The Kinematics of High Proper Motion Halo White Dwarfs
L. V. E. Koopmans, R. D. Blandford
We analyse the kinematics of the entire spectroscopic sample of 99 recently discovered high proper-motion white dwarfs by Oppenheimer et al. using a maximum-likelihood analysis, an…
Compact Objects and Accretion Disks
Roger Blandford, Eric Agol, Avery Broderick +3
Recent developments in the spectropolarimetric study of compact objects, specifically black holes (stellar and massive) and neutron stars are reviewed. The lectures are organized a…
