Hot-spot model for accretion disc variability as random process

T. Pechacek, V. Karas, B. Czerny

Theory of random processes provides an attractive mathematical tool to describe the fluctuating signal from accreting sources, such as active galactic nuclei and Galactic black hol…

Low angular momentum accretion flow model of Sgr A* activity

B. Czerny, M. Moscibrodzka, D. Proga +2

Sgr A* is a source of strongly variable emission in several energy bands. It is generally agreed that this emission comes from the material surrounding the black hole which is eith…

The Search for Primordial Black Holes Using Very Short Gamma Ray Bursts

D. B. Cline, C. Matthey, S. Otwinowski +2

We show the locations of the SWIFT short hard bursts (SHB) with afterglows on the galactic map and compare with the VSB BATSE events. As we have pointed out before, there is an exc…

Constraining global parameters of accreting black holes by modeling magnetic flares

R. W. Goosmann, M. Mouchet, M. Dovciak +3

We present modeling results for the reprocessed radiation expected from magnetic flares above AGN accretion disks. Relativistic corrections for the orbital motion of the flare and…

Modeling the X-ray fractional variability spectrum of Active Galactic Nuclei using multiple flares

R. W. Goosmann, M. Dovciak, V. Karas +3

Using Monte-Carlo simulations of X-ray flare distributions across the accretion disk of active galactic nuclei (AGN), we obtain modeling results for the energy-dependent fractional…

Extinction curves in AGN

B. Czerny

The presence of the dust in the circumnuclear region strongly affects our view of the nucleus itself. The effect is strong in type 2 objects but weaker effect is likely to be prese…
