Optical Counterparts to X-ray sources in LSST DP1
Yuankun, Wang, Eric C. Bellm +9
We present a crossmatch between a combined catalog of X-ray sources and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 1 (DP1) to identify optical counterparts. The six fields targeted…
Continuum Reverberation in Active Galactic Nuclei Disks Only With Sufficient X-ray Luminosity and Low Albedo
Amy Secunda, Yan-Fei Jiang, Jenny E. Greene
Disk continuum reverberation mapping is one of the primary ways we learn about active galactic nuclei (AGN) accretion disks. Reverberation mapping assumes that time-varying X-rays…
Simulating X-ray Reverberation in the UV-Emitting Regions of Active Galactic Nuclei Accretion Disks with 3D Multi-Frequency Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations
Amy Secunda, Yan-Fei Jiang, Jenny E. Greene
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) light curves observed with different wavebands show that the variability in longer wavelength bands lags the variability in shorter wavelength bands. M…
Evolution of Retrograde Orbiters in an AGN Disk
Amy Secunda, Betsy Hernandez, Jeremy Goodman +4
AGN disks have been proposed as promising locations for the mergers of stellar mass black hole binaries (BBHs). Much recent work has been done on this merger channel, but the major…
Orbital Migration of Interacting Stellar Mass Black Holes in Disks around Supermassive Black Holes II. Spins and Incoming Objects
Amy Secunda, Jillian Bellovary, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +6
The masses, rates, and spins of merging stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) detected by aLIGO and Virgo provide challenges to traditional BBH formation and merger scenarios. An…
Orbital Migration of Interacting Stellar Mass Black Holes in Disks around Supermassive Black Holes
Amy Secunda, Jillian Bellovary, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +5
The merger rate of stellar-mass black hole binaries (sBHBs) inferred by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) suggests the need for an efficient s…
