A QPO in Mkn 421 from Archival RXTE Data

Evan Smith, Lani Oramas, Eric Perlman

We report a 325(-7, +8) day quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the X-ray emission of the blazar Mkn 421, based on data obtained with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The QP…

Powerful Radio-Loud Quasars are Triggered by Galaxy Mergers in the Cosmic Bright Ages

Peter Breiding, Marco Chiaberge, Erini Lambrides +14

While supermassive black holes are ubiquitous features of galactic nuclei, only a small minority are observed during episodes of luminous accretion. The physical mechanism(s) drivi…

I. Reconstructing Three-Dimensional Jet Geometry from Two-Dimensional Images

Sailee M. Sawant, Katie Kosak, Kunyang Li +3

We present a three-dimensional (3-D) visualization of jet geometry using numerical methods based on a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and limited memory Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-S…

Characteristics of Kepler Eclipsing Binaries Displaying a Significant O'Connell Effect

Matthew F. Knote, Saida M. Caballero-Nieves, Vayujeet Gokhale +2

The O'Connell effect - the presence of unequal maxima in eclipsing binaries - remains an unsolved riddle in the study of close binary systems. The Kepler space telescope produced h…
