Energetic Gamma Radiation from Rapidly Rotating Black Holes
Kouichi Hirotani, Hung-Yi Pu
Supermassive black holes are believed to be the central power house of active galactic nuclei. Applying the pulsar outer-magnetospheric particle accelerator theory to black-hole ma…
First-generation Science Cases for Ground-based Terahertz Telescopes
Hiroyuki Hirashita, Patrick M. Koch, Satoki Matsushita +33
Ground-based observations at terahertz (THz) frequencies are a newly explorable area of astronomy for the next ten years. We discuss science cases for a first-generation 10-m class…
Steady General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Inflow/Outflow Solution along Large-Scale Magnetic Fields that Thread a Rotating Black Hole
Hung-Yi Pu, Masanori Nakamura, Kouichi Hirotani +3
General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) flows along magnetic fields threading a black hole can be divided into inflow and outflow parts, according to the result of the com…
