Scaling Up: A Global Optical/X-ray Correlation For Reprocessing Across Black Hole Masses
Changhyun Cho, David M. Russell, Aaryan Sharma +9
This study extends the optical/X-ray correlation from black hole low-mass X-ray binaries (XRBs) to active galactic nuclei (AGN), bridging scales from stellar-mass to supermassive b…
Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in rotating QED: critical flavor number and the occupation-reweighting channel
Wei Li
We study dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in -dimensional QED on a rigidly rotating disc, , within the rainbow Schwinger--Dyson framework. At zero temperature the…
An atypical X-ray variability component in the black hole candidate AT2019wey
Pengcheng Yang, Mariano Méndez, Sandeep K. Rout +5
Recent studies have revealed a notable timing feature in several black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) during the soft-to-hard transition at the outburst decay. Within a narrow frequen…
A NICER view of the corona through time-dependent Comptonization of the quasi-periodic oscillations in nine black-hole X-ray binaries
Yuexin Zhang, Mariano Méndez, James F. Steiner +12
We present a systematic study of the evolution of the corona geometry in nine black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) using archival data from NICER. We identify 171 observations exhibi…
Exotic optical variability in the black hole X-ray binary IGR J17091-3624
Payaswini Saikia, David M. Russell, D. M. Bramich +9
IGR J17091-3624 is a distinctive black hole X-ray binary exhibiting exotic variability, including complex "heartbeat" oscillations in its X-ray light curves, similar to those obser…
