Powering AGNs with super-critical black holes
A. Avgoustidis, R. Jimenez, L. Alvarez-Gaume +1
We propose a novel mechanism for powering the central engines of Active Galactic Nuclei through super-critical (type II) black hole collapse. In this picture, ~ of ma…
Consistency among distance measurements: transparency, BAO scale and accelerated expansion
A. Avgoustidis, Licia Verde, Raul Jimenez
We explore consistency among different distance measures, including Supernovae Type Ia data, measurements of the Hubble parameter, and determination of the Baryon acoustic oscillat…
Revisiting the effect of H2, HD and LiH molecules in the cooling of primordial gas
Joaquin P. Prieto, Leopoldo Infante, Raul Jimenez
We use a non-equilibrium chemical network to revisit and study the effect of H_{2}, HD and LiH molecular cooling on a primordial element of gas. We solve both the thermal and chemi…
Improving Photometric Redshifts using GALEX Observations for the SDSS Stripe 82 and the Next Generation of SZ Cluster Surveys
Michael D. Niemack, Raul Jimenez, Licia Verde +3
Four large-area Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) experiments -- APEX-SZ, SPT, ACT, and Planck -- promise to detect clusters of galaxies through the distortion of Cosmic Microwave Background…
