The emergence of X-ray emission lines during relativistic radio-jet formation in the changing-look active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654
Dev R. Sadaula, Sibasish Laha, Eileen T. Meyer +27
We present results from a comprehensive multi-wavelength monitoring campaign of the changing-look active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654 during the onset and evolution of a relativis…
A Suppressed Volumetric Rate of High-Luminosity Mid-Infrared Selected Tidal Disruption Events
Prajna Nair, Christos Panagiotou, Megan Masterson +4
Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) serve as direct probes of the population of supermassive black holes in the center of galaxies and are nowadays regularly detected in optical wide-fi…
Fading into darkness: A weak mass ejection and low-efficiency fallback accompanying black hole formation in M31-2014-DS1
Kishalay De, Morgan MacLeod, Jacob E. Jencson +10
Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) can form from the near-complete collapse of massive stars, causing them to abruptly disappear. The star M31-2014-DS1 in the Andromeda galaxy was repo…
X-ray Spectral-Timing Properties of Tidal Disruption Events
Joheen Chakraborty, Megan Masterson, Andrew Mummery +4
We perform the first systematic study of the minute-to-hours-timescale stochastic variability observed in the X-ray luminosity of tidal disruption events (TDEs) using XMM-Newton da…
Testing the Association of Supermassive Black Hole Infrared Flares and High-energy Neutrinos
Megan Wang, Christos Panagiotou, Kishalay De +3
The physical origin of the observed cosmic neutrinos remains an open question and the subject of active research. While matter accretion onto supermassive black holes is long thoug…
Disk-to-Corona State Transition and Extreme X-ray Variability in the Tidal Disruption Event AT2019teq
Vera Berger, Erin Kara, Joheen Chakraborty +2
We present a five-year X-ray spectral and timing analysis of the optically selected Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) AT2019teq, which displays extreme variability, including order-of-m…
XRISM finds the Changing-Look AGN NGC 1365 in an extended low state: A dense, highly ionized outflow obscures the central source
Fatima Zaidouni, Erin Kara, Peter Kosec +21
We present the first XRISM/Resolve observations of the active galactic nucleus, NGC 1365, obtained in 2024 February and July. NGC 1365 is known for rapid transitions between Compto…
