Ram-pressure-induced star formation in low-mass galaxies infalling on-to the Coma cluster: insights from DESI
Kirill A. Grishin, Igor V. Chilingarian, Gary A. Mamon +2
Ram-pressure stripping is a key driver of galaxy morphological transformation in clusters, contributing to the formation of quenched, especially dwarf, populations. Ram-pressure co…
Broad line region echo from highly accreting intermediate-mass black hole candidate SDSS J144850.08+160803.1. The first probe of intra-night variability and reverberation mapping
Mariia Demianenko, Anton Afanasiev, Evgenii Rubtsov +8
Elusive intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) can be used as ``time-squeezing'' machines, enabling studies of AGN geometry via reverberation mapping on much shorter timescales than…
Optical Emission-Line Properties of eROSITA-selected SDSS-V Galaxies
Nadiia G. Pulatova, Evgenii Rubtsov, Igor V. Chilingarian +21
We present and discuss optical emission line properties obtained from the analysis of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra for an X-ray selected sample of 3684 galaxies (0.002 <…
A Census of Compact Elliptical Galaxies in the Coma Cluster
Aleksandra V. Sharonova, Kirill A. Grishin, Igor V. Chilingarian +3
Compact elliptical (cE) galaxies are compact stellar systems with stellar masses of and radii typically < 0.6 kpc. Here we investigate the prop…
Multi-wavelength study of a hyperluminous X-ray source near NGC 6099: a strong IMBH candidate
Yi-Chi Chang, Roberto Soria, Albert K. H. Kong +3
We report on the intriguing properties of a variable X-ray source projected at the outskirts of the elliptical galaxy NGC 6099 ( Mpc). If truly located near NGC 6099…
NGC 3259: A Signal for an Untapped Population of Slowly Accreting Intermediate-Mass Black Holes
Kirill A. Grishin, Igor V. Chilingarian, Francoise Combes +4
Low-mass active galactic nuclei (AGNs) can provide important constraints on the formation and evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs), a central challenge in modern cosmology…
