Transmutation Timescales for Dark Matter Induced Collapse of Compact Stars into Black Holes

H. A. Adarsha, Chandrachur Chakraborty, Sudip Bhattacharyya

Ultra-heavy asymmetric dark matter (DM) particles captured by compact stars can thermalize, self-gravitate, and collapse to form an endoparasitic black hole (EBH), whose subsequent…

Relativistic outflows power a quasi-periodic eruption: constraints on energetics, mass loss, and emission mechanisms

Joheen Chakraborty, Erin Kara, Wenbin Lu +17

Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurring bursts of X-ray radiation originating from supermassive black holes (SMBHs). They are an unprecedented type of structured, high-amplit…

Tilted thin accretion disks in the full Kerr spacetime and their implications

K. S. Sruthy, Chandrachur Chakraborty, Sudip Bhattacharyya

We derive a steady-state warped-disk equation in the full Kerr spacetime to study the tilt dynamics of a thin, viscous accretion disk around a spinning collapsed object. The formul…

A NICER and AstroSat view of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 1A 1246-588

Vaidehi Poojyam, Vikas Mistry, Yash Bhargava +2

Neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) systems depict a variety of X-ray spectral and timing features, which can be useful to probe the accretion-ejection mechanism in the…

Degeneracy in Accretion Disk Spectra from Naked Singularities and Kerr Black Holes: Application to the AGN MCG-06-30-15

Vishva Patel, Sayantan Bhattacharya, Sudip Bhattacharyya +1

Theoretical studies suggest that gravitational collapse can form either a black hole or a visible (naked) singularity. Identifying observational signatures that distinguish these t…

Explainable machine learning classification of \textit{Chandra} X-ray sources: SHAP analysis of multi-wavelength features

Shivam Kumaran, Samir Mandal, Sudip Bhattacharyya

Extensive astronomical surveys, like those conducted with the {\em Chandra} X-ray Observatory, detect hundreds of thousands of unidentified cosmic sources. Machine learning (ML) me…
