EP260321a/SN 2026gzf: The Faintest Shock Breakout Associated with a Broad-Lined Supernova
Brendan O'Connor, Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann +33
The explosion of a star is first marked by the shock wave breaking out of the stellar surface, producing a burst of ultraviolet and X-ray radiation. These events are observationall…
HALO II: Constraining Hubble constant through continuum delay fitting of Fairall 9
Amit Kumar Mandal, Francisco Pozo Nuñez, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +28
The Hubble tension remains one of the most significant unresolved problems in modern cosmology. A key question is whether it may arise from underestimated systematic uncertainties…
Super-Eddington Accretion in Quasars
P. Marziani, K. Garnica Luna, A. Floris +5
This review provides an observational perspective on the fundamental properties of super-Eddington accretion onto supermassive black holes in quasars. It begins by outlining the se…
Dark and bright sides of the Broad Line Region clouds as seen in the FeII emission of SDSS RM 102
Alberto Floris, Ashwani Pandey, Bozena Czerny +4
Contamination from singly ionized iron emission is one of the greatest obstacles to determining the intensity of emission lines in the UV and optical wavelength ranges. This study…
