A lens model from Gaia DR3 and HST data combined with a Bayesian test on Chandra observations constrains the X-ray emission origin in lensed quasar J0659 to a 0.020 × 0.010 arcsec ellipse offset 0.014 arcsec from the optical source at 1σ.

Machine learning on simulated images identifies that flux eruption events cause more diffuse, polarized, lower-flux millimeter emission with decreased Q-U loop rotation rate, achieving ~80% accuracy with random forests on summary statistics.
Slim-disk self-shadowing plus accretion-rate-dependent BLR density enhancement explains the observed offsets of high-Eddington AGNs below the canonical R-L relation.
Fe Kα lines from accreting black holes are produced mostly outside 10 gravitational radii due to radial ionization gradients, allowing broad profiles without high spin.
A Monte Carlo model of a Kerr black hole corona shows that photon collisions create a dense electron-positron pair cloud concentrated near the black hole, yielding X-ray temperatures, Compton parameters, and 4-10% polarization consistent with binary black hole observations.
No orbital polarization modulation at P_orb or P_orb/2 is detected in combined IXPE data for Cygnus X-1, with 99% upper limits of 0.54-2.13% on P_orb/2 amplitude across 2-8 keV bands, consistent with sensitivity limits.
Simulations show heavy-seed formation with BH-BH mergers or Bondi accretion under weak feedback can assemble 10^6-10^7 solar mass black holes at z greater than or equal to 9.
LILA can detect IMBH binaries at redshifts 20-30, IMRIs, and provide months-to-years early warnings with high-SNR events for gravity tests.
No evidence for core-collapse formed low-spin IMBHs in GWTC-4, with 90% upper limit on merger rate of 0.077 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1}, low-spin BH mass truncation at 65 solar masses consistent with pair-instability gap lower edge, and high-spin IMBHs from hierarchical mergers.
Simulations of accreting black holes in standard and complex spacetimes indicate that magnetic geometry, quantum corrections, and binary dynamics influence flares, precession, photon rings, and multi-wavelength variability, with potential EHT constraints.
Lazuli is proposed as a space observatory combining flagship sensitivity with response times one to two orders of magnitude faster than current large facilities to enable new time-domain and multi-messenger science.
GRMHD simulations at spins 0.9375 and 0.998 yield similar fluid properties and full-Stokes EHT images, indicating prior lower-spin runs remain representative for a ≳ 0.9375.
Energy extraction via Comisso-Asenjo magnetic reconnection from rotating dyonic black holes in N=2 U(1)^2 gauged supergravity is possible but tightly limited by gauge coupling g and dyonic charges, peaking at intermediate spins rather than near-extremal.
A synthesis of multi-wavelength observations and models of variability, jets, and polarization in stellar-mass black hole accretion systems.
