Low-Frequency Oscillations in Global Simulations of Black Hole Accretion

Sean M. O'Neill, Christopher S. Reynolds, M. Coleman Miller +1

We have identified the presence of large-scale, low-frequency dynamo cycles in a long-duration, global, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of black hole accretion. Such cycles ha…

A Deep Chandra Observation of the X-shaped Radio Galaxy 4C +00.58: A Candidate for Merger-induced Reorientation?

Edmund J. Hodges-Kluck, Christopher S. Reynolds, M. Coleman Miller +1

Although rapid reorientation of a black hole spin axis (lasting less than a few Myr) has been suggested as a mechanism for the formation of wings in X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs),…

The Chandra View of Nearby X-shaped Radio Galaxies

Edmund Hodges-Kluck, Christopher S. Reynolds, Chi C. Cheung +1

We present new and archival Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of X-shaped radio galaxies within z < 0.1 alongside a comparison sample of normal double-lobed FR I and II radio…

Reaction of Accretion Disks to Abrupt Mass Loss During Binary Black Hole Merger

Sean M. O'Neill, M. Coleman Miller, Tamara Bogdanovic +2

The association of an electromagnetic signal with the merger of a pair of supermassive black holes would have many important implications. For example, it would provide new informa…

Origin of intermittent accretion-powered X-ray oscillations in neutron stars with millisecond spin periods

Frederick K. Lamb, Stratos Boutloukos, Sandor Van Wassenhove +3

We have shown previously that many of the properties of persistent accretion-powered millisecond pulsars can be understood if their X-ray emitting areas are near their spin axes an…

On the time variability of geometrically-thin black hole accretion disks I : the search for modes in simulated disks

Christopher S. Reynolds, M. Coleman Miller

We present a detailed temporal analysis of a set of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of geometrically-thin (h/r~0.05) black hole accretion disks. The black ho…
