Reverberation Mapping of High-luminosity Quasars: First Results
Reverberation mapping of nearby active galactic nuclei has led to estimates of broad-line-region (BLR) sizes and central-object masses for some 37 objects to date. However, successful reverberation mapping has yet to be performed for quasars of either high luminosity (above Lopt ∼ 1046 erg s−1) or high redshift (z & 0.3). Over the past six years, we have carried out, at the Hobby-Eberly Telesco...
متن کاملAdvances in Reverberation Mapping
This contribution briefly reviews the reverberation mapping technique which leads to determination of black hole masses. I focus on the emerging relation between the broad-line region size and the active galactic nucleus (AGN) luminosity, and on an overview of recent results of reverberation mapping studies which are starting to cover the full AGN luminosity range. Preliminary results and time ...
متن کاملRecent Results from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) measures both the flux of the electron-type neutrinos and the total flux of all active flavours of neutrinos originating from the Sun. A model-independent test of neutrino flavour transformation was performed by comparing these two measurements. In 2002, this flavour transformation was definitively demonstrated. In this talk, results from these measurement...
متن کاملRecent results from the Pierre Auger Observatory
The main results from the Auger Observatory are described. A steepening of the spectrum is observed at the highest energies, supporting the expectation that above 4×10 eV the cosmic ray energies are significantly degraded by interactions with the CMB photons (the GZK effect). This is further supported by the correlations observed above 6× 10 eV with the distribution of nearby active galaxies, w...
متن کاملFirst Results from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) is a water imaging Čerenkov detector. Utilising a 1 kilotonne ultra-pure D2O target, it is the first experiment to have equal sensitivity to all flavours of active neutrinos. This allows a solar-model independent test of the neutrino oscillation hypothesis to be made. Solar neutrinos from the decay of B have been detected at SNO by the charged-current (CC)...
