Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in rotating QED: critical flavor number and the occupation-reweighting channel
Wei Li
We study dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in -dimensional QED on a rigidly rotating disc, , within the rainbow Schwinger--Dyson framework. At zero temperature the…
A break in the X-ray loudness of Markarian 590: evidence for an AGN spectral state transition?
B. Palit, A. Rozanska, A. G. Markowitz +8
Using decade-long multi-band {\it Swift} observations of the changing-look AGN Markarian 590, we identify a clear break in the dependence of the X-ray loudness parameter $α_{\rm ox…
Optical and cm follow-ups of the Changing-Look event in Mkn 590
Biswaraj Palit, Abhijeet Borkar, Agata Różańska +5
The Changing-Look active galactic nucleus Mkn 590 is currently in a rejuvenated state, exhibiting a contemporaneous flux rise across X-rays, UV, optical and cm wavelengths. In this…
A constant pressure model for the warm absorber in Mrk 509
Krzysztof Hryniewicz, Agata Różańska, Tek Prasad Adhikari +3
We present the analysis of 900 ks high-resolution RGS XMM-Newton observations of the nearby Seyfert galaxy Mrk 509 with the use of a self-consistent warm absorber (WA) model. We pe…
Distinct Fe-K Line Complexes in MAXI J1744-294 Revealed by XRISM High-Resolution Spectroscopy
Kaushik Chatterjee, Santanu Mondal, Biswaraj Palit +7
The newly discovered Galactic transient MAXI J1744-294 went into its first X-ray outburst in 2025. We study the spectral properties of this source in the 2-10 keV energy band durin…
AT 2019aalc: a Bowen Fluorescence Flare With a Precursor Flare in an Active Galactic Nucleus
Marzena Śniegowska, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Lydia Makrygianni +10
AT 2019aalc is a peculiar sequence of highly variable emission events observed towards the nucleus of the broad-line AGN SDSS J152416.66+045119.0. The system exhibited two distinct…
Markarian 590: The AGN Awakens
Biswaraj Palit, Marzena Śniegowska, Alex Markowitz +3
Changing-Look AGN (CLAGN) Mkn 590 recently underwent a sudden re-ignition, marked by substantial increases in optical/UV and X-ray continuum flux since last couple of years. Swift-…
Broadband X-ray spectral analysis of the ULX NGC 1313\,X-1 using JeTCAF: Origin of the ULX bubble
Biswaraj Palit, Santanu Mondal
NGC 1313\,X-1 is a mysterious Ultra-luminous X-ray (ULX) source whose X-ray powering mechanism and a bubble-like structure surrounding the source are topics of intense study. Here,…
Study of accretion flows around an ultraluminous X-ray source M82 X-1 using NuSTAR data
Santanu Mondal, Biswaraj Palit, Sandip K. Chakrabarti
We study the spectral properties and accretion flow behavior of an ultraluminous X-ray source M82\,X-1 using {\it NuSTAR} observations. We use the physical two component advective…
