The case for super-Eddington accretion in JWST broad-line AGN during the first billion years
Erini Lambrides, Rebecca Larson, Kristen Garofali +23
A multitude of JWST studies reveal a surprising over-abundance of over-massive accreting super-massive black holes (SMBHs) -- leading to a deepening tension between theory and obse…
Constraints on the narrow-line region of the X-ray quasi-periodic eruption source GSN 069
Kishore C. Patra, Wenbin Lu, Yilun Ma +4
The origins of quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are poorly understood, although most theoretical explanations invoke an accretion disk around a supermassive black hole. The gas and…
Variability of extragalactic X-ray jets on kiloparsec scales
Eileen T. Meyer, Aamil Shaik, Yanbo Tang +10
Unexpectedly strong X-ray emission from extragalactic radio jets on kiloparsec scales has been one of the major discoveries of Chandra, the only X-ray observatory capable of sub-ar…
TXS 2116077: A Gamma-ray Emitting Relativistic Jet Hosted in a Galaxy Merger
Vaidehi S. Paliya, Enrique Pérez, Rubén García-Benito +10
What triggers collimated relativistic outflows or jets, from the centers of galaxies remains a fundamental question in astrophysics. The merging of two galaxies has been proposed t…
Chandra Observations of 3C Radio Sources with z<0.3 II: completing the snapshot survey
F. Massaro, G. R. Tremblay, D. E. Harris +14
We report on the second round of Chandra observations of the 3C snapshot survey developed to observe the complete sample of 3C radio sources with z<0.3 for 8 ksec each. In the firs…
Chandra Observations of 3C Radio Sources with z<0.3: Nuclei, Diffuse Emission, Jets and Hotspots
F. Massaro, D. E. Harris, G. Tremblay +11
We report on our Chandra Cycle 9 program to observe half of the 60 (unobserved by Chandra) 3C radio sources at z<0.3 for 8 ksec each. Here we give the basic data: the X-ray intensi…
