Self-lensing flares from black hole binaries III: general-relativistic ray tracing of circumbinary accretion simulations
Luke Major Krauth, Jordy Davelaar, Zoltán Haiman +3
Self-lensing flares (SLFs) are expected to be produced once or twice per orbit by an accreting massive black hole binary (MBHB), if the eclipsing MBHBs are observed close to edge-o…
Multiwavelength Analysis of Fermi-LAT Blazars with High-Significance Periodicity: Detection of a Long-Term Rising Emission in PG 1553+113
P. Peñil, J. R. Westernacher-Schneider, M. Ajello +6
Blazars display variable emission across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, with timescales that can range from a few minutes to several years. Our recent work has shown that a s…
Low-energy Explosions in a Gravitational Field: Implications for Sub-energetic Supernovae and Fast X-ray Transients
Daniel A. Paradiso, Eric R. Coughlin, Jonathan Zrake +1
Observations and theory suggest that core-collapse supernovae can span a range of explosion energies, and when sub-energetic, the shockwave initiating the explosion can decelerate…
Eccentric Minidisks in Accreting Binaries
John Ryan Westernacher-Schneider, Jonathan Zrake, Andrew MacFadyen +1
We show that gas disks around the components of an orbiting binary system (so-called minidisks) may be susceptible to a resonant instability which causes the minidisks to become si…
Massive Black Hole Binaries as LISA Precursors in the Roman High Latitude Time Domain Survey
Zoltán Haiman, Chengcheng Xin, Tamara Bogdanović +27
With its capacity to observe faint active galactic nuclei (AGN) out to redshift , Roman is poised to reveal a population of b…
Disappearing thermal X-ray emission as a tell-tale signature of merging massive black hole binaries
Luke Major Krauth, Jordy Davelaar, Zoltán Haiman +3
The upcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is expected to detect gravitational waves (GWs) from massive black hole binaries (MBHB). Finding the electromagnetic (EM) cou…
