Detection of Superluminal Motion in the X-Ray Jet of M87
Bradford Snios, Paul E. J. Nulsen, Ralph P. Kraft +5
Chandra HRC observations are investigated for evidence of proper motion and brightness changes in the X-ray jet of the nearby radio galaxy M87. Using images spanning 5 yr, proper m…
Compact Resolved Ejecta in the Nearest Tidal Disruption Event
Eric S. Perlman, Eileen T. Meyer, Q. Daniel Wang +8
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) occur when a star or sub-stellar object passes close enough to a galaxy's supermassive black hole to be disrupted by tidal forces. NGC 4845 (d=17 Mpc…
New ALMA and Fermi/LAT Observations of the large-scale jet of PKS 0637-752 Strengthen the Case Against the IC/CMB Model
Eileen T. Meyer, Peter Breiding, Markos Georganopoulos +5
The Chandra X-ray observatory has discovered several dozen anomalously X-ray-bright jets associated with powerful quasars. A popular explanation for the X-ray flux from the knots i…
Ruling out IC/CMB X-rays in PKS 0637-752 and the Implications for TeV Emission from Large-Scale Quasar Jets
Eileen T. Meyer, Markos Georganopoulos, William B. Sparks +3
The Chandra X-ray observatory has discovered dozens of resolved, kiloparsec-scale jets associated with powerful quasars in which the X-ray fluxes are observed to be much higher tha…
Missing Gamma-Rays from kpc-scale AGN Jets: A Test of the IC/CMB Model
Eileen T. Meyer, Markos Georganopoulos, William B. Sparks +2
The physical origin of the X-ray emission in powerful quasar jets has been a long-standing mystery. Though these jets start out on the sub-pc scale as highly relativistic flows, we…
A Universal Scaling for the Energetics of Relativistic Jets From Black Hole Systems
Rodrigo S. Nemmen, Markos Georganopoulos, Sylvain Guiriec +3
Black holes generate collimated, relativistic jets which have been observed in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), microquasars, and at the center of some galaxies (active galactic nuclei; AG…
