Black-hole bombs and photon-mass bounds.
Generic extensions of the standard model predict the existence of ultralight bosonic degrees of freedom. Several ongoing experiments are aimed at detecting these particles or constraining their mass range. Here we show that massive vector fields around rotating black holes can give rise to a strong superradiant instability, which extracts angular momentum from the hole. The observation of super...
متن کاملUsing Multiwavelength Observations to Determine the Black Hole Mass and Accretion Rate in the Type 1 Seyfert Galaxy Ngc 5548
We model the spectral energy distribution of the type 1 Seyfert galaxy NGC 5548, fitting data from simultaneous optical, UV, and X-ray monitoring observations. We assume a geometry consisting of a hot central Comptonizing region surrounded by a thin accretion disk. The properties of the disk and the hot central region are determined by the feedback occurring between the hot Comptonizing region ...
متن کاملThe Quasar Accretion Disk Size – Black Hole Mass Relation
We use the microlensing variability observed for nine gravitationally lensed quasars to show that the accretion disk size at 2500Å is related to the black hole mass by log(R2500/cm) = (15.6± 0.2) + (0.54± 0.28) log(MBH/10M⊙). This scaling is consistent with the expectation from thin disk theory (R ∝ M BH), but it implies that black holes radiate with relatively low efficiency, log(η) = −1.29 ± ...
متن کاملBlack hole mass decreasing due to phantom energy accretion.
Solution for a stationary spherically symmetric accretion of the relativistic perfect fluid with an equation of state p(rho) onto the Schwarzschild black hole is presented. This solution is a generalization of Michel solution and applicable to the problem of dark energy accretion. It is shown that accretion of phantom energy is accompanied by the gradual decrease of the black hole mass. Masses ...
متن کاملBlack hole mass and accretion rate of active galactic nuclei with double-peaked broad emission lines
Using an empirical relation between the broad line region size and optical continuum luminosity, we estimated the black hole mass and accretion rate for 135 AGNs with double-peaked broad emission lines in two samples, one from the SDSS and the other from a survey of radio-loud broad emission line AGNs. With black hole masses in a range from 3×10M⊙ to 5×10 M⊙, these AGNs have the dimensionless a...
