The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): The Circum-nuclear Environment of Growing Supermassive Black Holes
P. G. Boorman, N. Torres-Albà, A. Annuar +32
Ever since the discovery of the first Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), substantial observational and theoretical effort has been invested into understanding how massive black holes ha…
The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): Constraining Supermassive Black Hole Growth with Population Spin Measurements
J. M. Piotrowska, J. A. García, D. J. Walton +24
Constraining the primary growth channel of supermassive black holes (SMBH) remains one the most actively debated questions in the context of cosmological structure formation. Owing…
The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): Probing the physics of the X-ray corona in active galactic nuclei
E. Kammoun, A. M. Lohfink, M. Masterson +28
The hard X-ray emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN) and black hole X-ray binaries is thought to be produced by a hot cloud of electrons referred to as the corona. This emission…
Dynamics and spin alignment in massive, gravito-turbulent circumbinary discs around supermassive black hole binaries
Martin A. Bourne, Davide Fiacconi, Debora Sijacki +2
Parsec-scale separation supermassive black hole binaries in the centre of gas-rich galaxy merger remnants could be surrounded by massive circumbinary discs (CBDs). Black hole mass…
Variability as a predictor for the hard-to-soft state transition in GX 339-4
Matteo Lucchini, Marina Ten Have, Jingyi Wang +17
During the outbursts of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs), their accretion flows transition through several states. The source luminosity rises in the hard state, dominated by non…
