First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. VI: Testing the Black Hole Metric
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration
Astrophysical black holes are expected to be described by the Kerr metric. This is the only stationary, vacuum, axisymmetric metric, without electromagnetic charge, that satisfies…
Star Formation in Self-gravitating Disks in Active Galactic Nuclei. III. Efficient Production of Iron and Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions
J. -M. Wang, S., Zhai +7
Strong iron lines are a common feature of the optical spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and quasars from to the local Universe, and [Fe/Mg] ratios do not show co…
Accretion-modified Stars in Accretion Disks of Active Galactic Nuclei: the Low-luminosity Cases and an Application to Sgr A
J. -M. Wang, J. -R. Liu, Y. -R. Li +3
In this paper, we investigate the astrophysical processes of stellar-mass black holes (sMBHs) embedded in advection-dominated accretion flows (ADAFs) of supermassive black holes (S…
A search for pulsars around Sgr A* in the first Event Horizon Telescope dataset
Pablo Torne, Kuo Liu, Ralph P. Eatough +282
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observed in 2017 the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), at a frequency of 228.1 GHz (=1.3 mm). Th…
Electromagnetic signatures of white dwarf collisions in AGN discs
Shu-Rui Zhang, Yan Luo, Xiao-Jun Wu +3
In the inner region of the disc of an active galactic nucleus (AGN), the collision of two white dwarfs (WDs) through Jacobi capture might be inevitable, leading to a Type Ia supern…
White Dwarf--White Dwarf collisions in AGN discs via close encounters
Yan Luo, Xiao-Jun Wu, Shu-Rui Zhang +3
White dwarfs (WDs) in active galactic nucleus (AGNs) discs might migrate to the inner radii of the discs and form restricted three-body systems with two WDs moving around the centr…
