Over the Memory Wall, Into the Instruction Wall: The New Bottleneck in GPU Data Processing
Sven Hepkema, Bowen Wu, Christos Kozyrakis +2
Datacenter GPUs have seen an order-of-magnitude increase in memory bandwidth with the adoption of newer generations of HBM. Meanwhile, GPU database systems are gaining traction, ma…
Dynamics and geometry of the inner sub-parsec-scale jet in 3C 279 observed with the Event Horizon Telescope
Hendrik Mueller, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Ai-Ling Zeng +275
The 2021 Event Horizon Telescope observations resolve the innermost jet region of the blazar 3C279 with unprecedented detail. The reconstructed images consistently reveal a compact…
Broadband multiwavelength properties of the archetypal blazar 3C 279 during the 2017 Event Horizon Telescope campaign
G. Principe, J. C. Algaba, E. Aviano +529
The archetypal blazar 3C 279 hosts a prominent relativistic jet and exhibits strong broadband variability across the electromagnetic spectrum. In April 2017, the Event Horizon Tele…
Ionization Structure and Metal Enrichment of the Galactic Center Minispiral Observed with JWST
Nicole M Ford, Mayura Balakrishnan, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg +11
Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) is the nearest quiescent supermassive black hole, and its proximity offers a unique opportunity to study its surrounding fuel supply. We leverage extensive…
Infrared Line Diagnostics Fail to Constrain Sgr A*'s UV Output
Mayura Balakrishnan, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Daryl Haggard +11
Sgr A*, the 4 x supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center, exhibits frequent flaring with X-ray luminosities of erg s, while i…
The Demographics of Sagittarius A* X-ray Flares over 25 Years with Chandra
Zach Sumners, Nicole M. Ford, Daryl Haggard +10
We present the Chandra 25-year Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) X-ray flare catalog: a systematic analysis of 6.8 Ms of Sgr A* monitoring spanning the Chandra X-ray Observatory's mission li…
