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.
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.
XRISM/Resolve data on Mrk 509 show a tentative 3.6-sigma infalling absorber at 11000 km/s located within thousands of gravitational radii, interpreted as raining clumps from a failed wind.
XRISM data on Her X-1 reveal increasing wind speed with height, decreasing column density, weakly evolving ionization, and a new brief second wind component tied to orbital phase.
Kerr-MOG accretion disk spectra are softer than Kerr at fixed spin due to outward ISCO shift from the fifth-force parameter α, with an observational upper limit α < 0.044 from LMC X-1 data.
Non-detections of expected third flares in TDE 2022dbl and TDE 2020vdq support rpTDE interpretation over independent events, with modeling favoring bound main-sequence star orbits and deep initial encounters.
X-ray spectral modeling and timing analysis of V1674 Her constrain its white dwarf mass to 1.09-1.12 solar masses, well below the near-Chandrasekhar value expected from its t2~1 day decline time.
JWST observations of ERQs show stratified gas kinematics via deblended optical emission lines, with UV lines dominated by scattered light and optical lines mixing scattered and obscured emission.
The highly broadened Fe K line in Her X-1 is resolved for the first time and is shown to vary with the neutron star rotation phase and 35-day precession cycle, supporting an accretion-column origin.
A new public relativistic transfer-function model reltrans for X-ray reverberation mapping that fits both spectra and lags to measure black-hole masses.
BLiSS blindly detects, ranks, and optionally identifies emission-line candidates in 1D X-ray spectra via empirical baselines, Gaussian fits, and GMM reliability scores from synthetic null spectra.
Mid-IR search of NEOWISE yields 10 TDEs above 3e43 erg/s with volumetric rate 1.2e-10 Mpc^-3 yr^-1, showing suppression at high luminosity explained by reduced TDE rate for larger black holes.
TNG50 simulation analysis finds early-forming halos show higher stellar mass, metallicity, lower CGM gas mass and sSFR at z=0, with mass-dependent CGM metallicity reversal and cold-gas kinematics differences.
Magnetic inclination alignment with timescale proportional to B to the minus two suppresses observed numbers of strong-field neutron stars, unifying pulsars and magnetars under one log-uniform initial B distribution.
Phase-resolved broadband spectropolarimetry of magnetar 1RXS J170849.0-400910 shows evolving pulse profiles, a blackbody plus two power-law spectrum, and polarization up to 64% consistent with magnetospheric pair-synchrotron emission.
Variable column density and covering factor of three ionized absorbers in clumpy disk winds explain the X-ray variability in I Zw 1 with stable corona.
HE 1237-2252 exhibits a changing-look event driven by intrinsic accretion-rate variations, revealing a two-component broad-line region consisting of virialized gas at ~27 light-days and disk emission at larger radii.
A one-zone model fitted to radio observations of WR 102's bubble predicts that protons accelerated at the wind shock dominate high-energy emission but produce an undetectable gamma-ray flux.
Multi-mission O-C data on eRO-QPE2 reveal hierarchical super-periods consistent with apsidal precession at a~140 Rg but no robust EMRI solution due to sparse sampling and narrow likelihood peaks.
Core-collapse supernova models including C-O shell mergers best match observed elemental ratios in Cas A, indicating mergers occur and contribute up to 20-30% of 44Ti outside the reverse shock.
Archival Chandra and XMM-Newton observations reveal two transient X-ray sources in NGC 4552 exceeding 10^39 erg/s, classifying them as new transient ULXs.
Multi-wavelength data classify the Einstein Probe transient EP250916a as a faint hard-state black hole X-ray binary candidate.
Multi-wavelength data from SDSS J1430+2303 are interpreted as evidence that radiation pressure instabilities drive a shrinking unstable accretion-disk zone, based on timing analysis, weak soft excess, and SED-derived black-hole parameters.
