Light bending and X-ray echoes from behind a supermassive black hole
D. R. Wilkins, L. C. Gallo, E. Costantini +2
The innermost regions of accretion disks around black holes are strongly irradiated by X-rays that are emitted from a highly variable, compact corona, in the immediate vicinity of…
Fundamental Accretion and Ejection Astrophysics
J. M. Miller, M. Nowak, K. Nandra +11
Disk accretion may be the fundamental astrophysical process. Stars and planets form through the accretion of gas in a disk. Black holes and galaxies co-evolve through efficient dis…
The Hard X-ray Spectrum as a Probe for Black-Hole Growth in Radio-Quiet Active Galactic Nuclei
Ohad Shemmer, W. N. Brandt, Hagai Netzer +2
We study the hard-X-ray spectral properties of ten highly luminous radio-quiet (RQ) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at z=1.3-3.2, including new XMM-Newton observations of four of the…
An X-ray, IR, and Submillimeter Flare of Sagittarius A*
D. P. Marrone, F. K. Baganoff, M. R. Morris +14
Energetic flares are observed in the Galactic supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* from radio to X-ray wavelengths. On a few occasions, simultaneous flares have been detected in…
First Simultaneous NIR/X-ray Detection of a Flare from SgrA*
A. Eckart, F. K. Baganoff, M. Morris +9
We report on the first simultaneous near-infrared/X-ray detection of the Sgr A* counterpart which is associated with the massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. The obse…
The Chandra Deep Survey of the Hubble Deep Field North Area. II. Results from the Caltech Faint Field Galaxy Redshift Survey Area
A. E. Hornschemeier, W. N. Brandt, G. P. Garmire +14
We present results from a 221.9 ks Chandra exposure of the HDF-N and its vicinity, concentrating on the 8.6' X 8.7' area covered by the Caltech Faint Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (…
