Prospects for EMRI/MBH parameter estimation using Quasi-Periodic Eruption timings: short-timescale analysis

Joheen Chakraborty, Lisa V. Drummond, Matteo Bonetti +11

Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are luminous, recurring X-ray outbursts from galactic nuclei, with timescales of hours to days. While their origin remains uncertain, leading models…

Discovery of Quasi-periodic Eruptions in the Tidal Disruption Event and Extreme Coronal Line Emitter AT2022upj: implications for the QPE/TDE fraction and a connection to ECLEs

Joheen Chakraborty, Erin Kara, Riccardo Arcodia +10

Quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) are recurring soft X-ray transients emerging from the vicinity of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in nearby, low-mass galaxy nuclei; about ten QPE…

Rapidly varying ionization features in a Quasi-periodic Eruption: a homologous expansion model for the spectroscopic evolution

Joheen Chakraborty, Peter Kosec, Erin Kara +9

Quasi-Periodic Eruptions (QPEs) are recurring bursts of soft X-ray emission from supermassive black holes (SMBHs), which a growing class of models explains via extreme mass-ratio i…
