A 4.46 solar-mass black hole is found in a 94-year eccentric orbit with a main-sequence turnoff star in ω Centauri via 23-year astrometric monitoring.
Detection of a variable stratified UFO with velocities 0.1c and 0.3c, extreme mass outflow rates, and kinetic powers of 1-10% of bolometric luminosity in quasar WISSH13 at z=3.294.
Milky Way globular clusters formed with initial half-mass densities of ~10^6.4 M_sun/pc^3, bottom-light IMFs, and small present-day black hole mass fractions, inferred by coupling rapid evolution models with multimass equilibrium models fitted to present-day observations.
First detection of an ultra-fast outflow (v≈0.07c) in a quiescent galaxy quenched ~9 Gyr ago, suggesting AGN winds can maintain quiescence independent of global star formation.
Transient Faraday-complex spectropolarimetric structure detected during radio flaring of Swift J1727 implies internal Faraday rotation from electron-proton jet plasma with rotating mass ~10^21 g, a small fraction of accreted mass.
Spatially resolved spectroscopy shows SDSS1335+0728 has a three-zone ionisation structure, optically thin dust, and sustained low-level nuclear activity for at least 1500 years, implying the Ansky event is a faint transient in an already accreting low-mass SMBH.
Presents a normalized signed area statistic with Monte Carlo uncertainty propagation and surrogate-based significance testing for detecting hysteresis loops in ordered 2D spectral parameter trajectories.
First narrow-line flux ratios for lensed quasar RXJ1131-1231 measured with JWST/NIRSpec IFS at ~5% precision, detecting cusp anomaly consistent with prior work.
Anisotropic quenching is detected at the highest redshift yet and linked to preprocessing dominating over intrahalo effects by ~20% along the major axis in a delay-then-rapid quenching model informed by cluster accretion histories.
JWST MIRI observations of 634 galaxies at 0.2<z<2 yield IR luminosity functions with faint-end slope α≈0.147, implying lower dust-obscured SFRD than previous ALMA/Herschel/Spitzer studies.
VLBI at 4.9 GHz plus multi-epoch survey data reveal a fading parsec-scale radio component near the optical center of a dwarf galaxy, interpreted as transient ejecta from IMBH accretion.
Simultaneous measurement of low- and high-mass IMF slopes in 214 star-forming galaxies reveals diversity, weak correlation between ends, and links to stellar mass, star formation rate, and metallicity.
Accreting black holes contribute 40-60% of the mean Hα intensity and 60-80% of the mean He II intensity at cosmic noon in LIM, dominating the shot-noise term and boosting small-scale power.
Type-C QPO amplitudes correlate linearly with jet inclination up to 8 Hz in BH LMXBs, lower on decay than rise, reproducible by precessing hot flow if misalignment ≥10-15°.
The survey identifies 27 low-redshift LRDs with compact morphology, V-shaped continua, broad Balmer lines with extreme decrements, and ubiquitous outflows, matching high-z counterparts and yielding a number density lower limit of 7.5e-10 cMpc^-3.
A causal machine-learning model using variability features from Fermi-LAT light curves predicts blazar flare activity within 90 days with 86% recall on held-out data for one FSRQ.
Multimessenger observations and one-zone leptohadronic modeling of PKS 1725+123 during a flare constrain its emission to external Compton gamma-rays, SSC X-rays, and a neutrino rate of about 0.3 events per year peaking at 1 PeV.
A JWST census detects neutral ISM absorption in 76 of 309 galaxies at 0.6<z<4 and outflows in 26, indicating AGN-driven neutral outflows dominate in quiescent systems at cosmic noon.
The mHz QPO in 1ES 1927+654 has persisted and stabilized at ~2.5 mHz with stable soft lags, no strong harmonic, and repeatable large-amplitude flux patterns, also seen in NuSTAR.
Spectroscopic data indicate that the ionized gas in ORC4's central galaxy is shock-ionized by a wind associated with the radio ring's formation.
LPT-matched integrators for cosmological simulations outperform FastPM with O(1-100) timesteps while convergence is limited to order 3/2 post-shell-crossing due to acceleration field irregularity.
Discovery of 35 high-redshift dwarf galaxies with radio AGN showing jet powers of 10^42-10^44 erg/s and efficiencies >=10% in over half the sample.
AGN radiation pressure, not black-hole mass, simultaneously boosts large-scale [O III] outflows and clears circumnuclear gas as Eddington ratio rises.
