Horizon-scale variability of M87* from 2017--2021 EHT observations

The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration

We report three epochs of polarized images of M87* at 230\,GHz using data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) taken in 2017, 2018, and 2021. The baseline coverage of the 2021 ob…

Resolving the cosmic X-ray background with a next-generation high-energy X-ray observatory

R. C. Hickox, F. Civano, D. R. Ballantyne +16

The cosmic X-ray background (CXB), which peaks at an energy of ~30 keV, is produced primarily by emission from accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs). The CXB therefore serves…

A New Population of Compton-Thick AGN Identified Using the Spectral Curvature Above 10 keV

Michael J. Koss, R. Assef, M. Balokovic +18

We present a new metric that uses the spectral curvature (SC) above 10 keV to identify Compton-thick AGN in low-quality Swift BAT X-ray data. Using NuSTAR, we observe nine high SC-…
