Abstract:
AbstractUsing an AGN sample from the INTEGRAL all-sky survey, we show that the density fluctuations of matter in the local universe translate linearly into the density fluctuations of accreting supermassive black holes. Our results imply that hard X-ray emitting AGNs are unbiased tracers of the galaxy population in the nearby universe and SMBH activity is independent of the density of galaxies.

We study on the third quantization of a Kaluza–Klein toy model. In this model time (x) is defined by the scale factor of universe, and the space coordinate (y) is defined by the ratio of the scales of the ordinary space and the internal space. We calculate the number density of the universes created from nothing and examine whether the compactification can be explained statistically by the idea of the third quantization.

Most of the 3-300 keY spectrum of the unresolved X-ray background can be explained as thermal bremsstrahlung from a hot intergalactic gas plus a small non-thermal component at higher energies.

The interglactic gas is found to have a temperature of 1 �3 x 109 K and a density of 2.05 C - 213 hydrogen atoms m - 3, where C is an unknown factor that depends on the dumpiness of the intergalactic gas.

The distance from the Local Group to the ‘sphere’ of small galaxies that no longer expand with the Universe determines the time since the Big Bang, t x M1/2, where M is the mass of the Local Group. Adopting Feast's new distance scale, this distance is found to be 1.35 ± 0.1 Mpc. The velocity of approach and the distance to M31 give a different combination of t and M, thus both can be deduced. We find the time since the Big Bang and The importance of accurate distances for such results is stressed. If all distances are revised by a factor λ then both t and M change by that factor.

Abstract:
Context. Giant radio galaxies (GRGs) are the largest single structures in the Universe. Exhibiting extended radio morphology, their projected sizes range from 0.7 Mpc up to 4.9 Mpc. LOFAR has opened a new window on the discovery and investigation of GRGs and, despite the hundreds that are known today, their main growth catalyst is still under debate. Aims. One natural explanation for the exceptional size of GRGs is their old age. In this context, hard X-ray selected GRGs show evidence of restarting activity, with the giant radio lobes being mostly disconnected from the nuclear source, if any a

ABSTRACT The detection of a bright radio burst (hereafter FRB 200428) in association with a hard X-ray burst from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 suggests that magnetars can make fast radio bursts (FRBs). We study possible neutrino emission from FRB-emitting magnetars by developing a general theoretical framework. We consider three different sites for proton acceleration and neutrino emission i.e. within the magnetosphere, in the current sheet region beyond the light cylinder, and in relativistic shocks far away from the magnetosphere. Different cooling processes for protons and pions are

We report the 888 MHz radio detection in the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS) of VIK J2318−3113, a z = 6.44 quasar. Its radio luminosity (1.2 × 1026 W Hz−1 at 5 GHz) compared to the optical luminosity (1.8 × 1024 W Hz−1 at 4400 Å) makes it the most distant radio-loud quasar observed so far, with a radio loudness R ∼ 70 (R = L5 GHz/L4400 Å). Moreover, the high bolometric luminosity of the source (Lbol = 7.4 × 1046 erg s−1) suggests the presence of a supermassive black hole with a high mass (≳6 × 108 M⊙) at a time when the Universe was younger than a billion years.

Abstract:
The inertial mass of a Fermion shows up as chiral cross-coupling in its Dirac system. No scalar term can invariantly couple left and right chirality fields; the Dirac matrices must be spin tensors of mixed chirality. We show how such tensor couplings could arise from nonlinear mixing of four spinor fields, two representing the local electron fields and two inertial spinor fields sourced in the distant masses. We thus give a model that implements Mach's principle. Following Mendel Sachs,1 we let the inertial spinors factor the moving spacetime tetrads qα(x) and [Formula: see text] that appear i

In the nearby (≈20 Mpc) LIRG NGC 7552, the majority of the IR emission originates in a circumnuclear starburst ring, which has been resolved into several discrete knots of star formation.

The considered sources have soft time-averaged γ-ray spectra (Γγ ≥ 2.2) whereas those that have been observed in the X-ray band have hard X-ray spectra (ΓX = 1.01−1.86).

This also explains the difference in the Eddington ratio distribution functions (ERDFs) of type 1 and type 2 AGNs obtained by a recent study.
