The Variability of "Normal" Galactic Nuclei
The Variability of "Normal" Galactic Nuclei Jacob Nelson Department of Physics and Astronomy Bachelor of Science It is likely that the nuclei of all galaxies contain black holes. If matter falls in toward the black hole, some of it can be heated an ejected creating an active nucleus. Astronomers monitor the infall and estimate black hole masses by measuring variations in the brightness of the n...
متن کاملTransient X-ray emission from normal galactic nuclei
X-ray transients appeared in optically non-active galactic nuclei have been observed in recent years. The most popular model explaining this kind of phenomena is the conventional tidal disruption model. In this model, when a star moves within the tidal radius of a black hole, part of the star materials will fall into the black hole through an accretion disk, which gives rise to the luminous fla...
متن کاملOutstanding bile pigment problems.
In this review of the chemistry, biochemistry and chemical pathology of the bile pigments I am well aware that I shall ask many more questions than I am able to answer. It seems appropriate that the subject should be considered under the five headings: -Chemistry; Formation from Haem Proteins; Transport in the Blood; Conjugation and Transport to the Bile; and Changes in the Gut. I shall conclud...
متن کاملholes in galactic nuclei
The concept of an advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF), with or without wind loss, was used to describe the spectra of the galactic center source SgrA * , low-luminosity AGN and nuclei of elliptical galaxies (including M87). The spectral fits of various authors show that the transition from the geometrically thin disk to the hot flow occurs at quite different distances, apparently not uniq...
متن کاملObscured Active Galactic Nuclei
The properties of the absorption in type 2, narrow line AGNs are reviewed by focusing on the X-ray indicators. I discuss the properties of the cold absorbing medium (the putative torus) and of the reprocessed components, as well as their implications for the unified model. The relation between optical classification and X-ray absorption is examined. The case of “fossil” AGNs, whose type 2 class...
