Cyclo-synchrotron emission from magnetically dominated active regions above accretion discs
T. Di Matteo, A. Celotti, A. C. Fabian
We discuss the role of thermal cyclo-synchrotron emission in a magnetically dominated corona above an accretion disk in an active galaxy or a galactic black hole candidate. The dis…

Two-temperature coronae in active galactic nuclei
T. Di Matteo, E. G. Blackman, A. C. Fabian
We show that coronal magnetic dissipation in thin active sheets that sandwich standard thin accretion disks in active galactic nuclei may account for canonical electron temperature…

Advectively dominated flows in the cores of giant elliptical galaxies: application to M60 (NGC 4649)
T. Di Matteo, A. C. Fabian
It has been suggested that the final stages of accretion in present--day giant elliptical galaxies occur in an advection-dominated mode. The poor radiative efficiency of this accre…
