Anti-Correlation of the Near-Infrared and X-Ray Variations of the Microquasar GRS 1915+105 in Soft State
Akira Arai, Makoto Uemura, Mahito Sasada +21
We report detailed, long term near-infrared (NIR) light curves of GRS 1915+105 in 2007-2008, covering its long "soft state" for the first time. From our NIR monitoring and the X-ra…
The Growth of Supermassive Black Holes Across Cosmic Time
K. Nandra, J. A. Aird, D. M. Alexander +54
One of the main themes in extragalactic astronomy for the next decade will be the evolution of galaxies over cosmic time. Many future observatories, including JWST, ALMA, GMT, TMT…
Spin and Relativistic Phenomena Around Black Holes
L. Brenneman, J. M. Miller, K. Nandra +13
Since the seminal work of Penrose (1969) and Blandford & Znajek (1977), it has been realized that black hole spin may be an important energy source in astrophysics. The radio-loud/…
Fundamental Accretion and Ejection Astrophysics
J. M. Miller, M. Nowak, K. Nandra +11
Disk accretion may be the fundamental astrophysical process. Stars and planets form through the accretion of gas in a disk. Black holes and galaxies co-evolve through efficient dis…
Stellar-Mass Black Holes and Their Progenitors
J. M. Miller, P. Uttley, K. Nandra +14
If a black hole has a low spin value, it must double its mass to reach a high spin parameter. Although this is easily accomplished through mergers or accretion in the case of super…
The Suzaku Observation of the Nucleus of the Radio-Loud Active Galaxy Centaurus A: Constraints on Abundances of the Accreting Material
A. Markowitz, T. Takahashi, S. Watanabe +16
A Suzaku observation of the nucleus of the radio-loud AGN Centaurus A in 2005 has yielded a broadband spectrum spanning 0.3 to 250 keV. The net exposure times after screening were:…
