Connecting current and future dual AGN searches to LISA and PTA gravitational wave detections
Nianyi Chen, Yihao Zhou, Ekaterine Dadiani +10
Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) mark an observable stage of massive black hole (MBH) pairing in galaxy mergers and are precursors to the MBH binaries that generate low-frequency…
Evidence for Supermassive Black Hole Binaries
Martin G. H. Krause, Martin A. Bourne, Silke Britzen +10
We review the state of the evidence for the existence and observational appearance of supermassive black hole binaries. Such objects are expected from standard hierarchical galaxy…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
Large-scale dual AGN in large-scale cosmological hydrodynamical simulations
Clara Puerto-Sánchez, Melanie Habouzit, Marta Volonteri +10
Detecting dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) in observations and understanding theoretically which massive black holes (MBHs) compose them and in which galactic and large-scale env…
The Black Hole Mass and Photometric Components of NGC 4826
Kayhan Gültekin, Karl Gebhardt, John Kormendy +6
We present IR photometry and HST imaging and spectroscopy of Sab galaxy NGC 4826. Schwarzschild dynamical modeling is used to measure its central black hole mass . Photometric d…
Chandra Discovery of a Candidate Hyper-Luminous X-ray Source in MCG+11-11-032
Adi Foord, Francesca Civano, Julia M. Comerford +9
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of MCG+11-11-032, a nearby AGN with the unique classification of both a binary and a dual AGN candidate. With new Chandra observations we aim…
