Dark matter annihilation via Breit-Wigner enhancement with heavier mediator by Yu Cheng, Shao-Feng Ge, Jie Sheng, Tsutomu T. Yanagida

“…We propose a new scenario that both the dark matter freeze-out in the early Universe and its possible annihilation for indirect detection around a supermassive black hole are enhanced by a Breit-Wigner resonance. …”

Relativistic Einstein rings of Reissner–Nordström black holes nonminimally coupled to electrodynamics by Rodrigo Maier

“…To compare our results with previous studies in the literature we model the lens as a Galactic supermassive black hole. For fixed coupling parameters we show that such angular positions decrease as the charge parameter increases. …”

The cosmic timeline implied by the highest redshift quasars by Fulvio Melia

“…Abstract The conventional picture of supermassive black-hole growth in the standard model had already been seriously challenged by the emergence of $$\sim 10^9\;M_\odot $$ ∼ 10 9 M ⊙ quasars at $$z\sim 7.5$$ z ∼ 7.5 , conflicting with the predicted formation of structure in the early $$\varLambda $$ Λ CDM Universe. …”

Interaction of an Outflow with Surrounding Gaseous Clouds as the Origin of Late-time Radio Flares in Tidal Disruption Events by Jialun Zhuang, Rong-Feng Shen, Guobin Mou, Wenbin Lu

“…Close encounter between a star and a supermassive black hole (SMBH) results in the tidal disruption of the star, known as a tidal disruption event (TDE). …”

Systematic Search for Long-term Trends in Fermi-LAT Jetted Active Galactic Nuclei by P. Peñil, A. Domínguez, S. Buson, M. Ajello, S. Adhikari, A. Rico

“…These long-term trends may originate from the dynamics of a supermassive black hole binary system, or they could be the result of intrinsic phenomena within the jet itself. …”

Constraining Binary Mergers in Active Galactic Nuclei Disks Using the Nonobservation of Lensed Gravitational Waves by Samson H. W. Leong, Justin Janquart, Aditya Kumar Sharma, Paul Martens, Parameswaran Ajith, Otto A. Hannuksela

“…We show that a considerable fraction of the BBH in AGN disks will be strongly lensed by the central supermassive black hole (SMBH). Thus, the nonobservation of lensed GW signals can be used to constrain the fraction of BBH binaries residing in AGN disks. …”

Distinguishing Compact Objects in Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals by Gravitational Waves by Lujia Xu, Shucheng Yang, Wenbiao Han, Xingyu Zhong, Rundong Tang, Yuanhao Zhang

“…Assuming the “true” GW signals originate from an extended body inspiraling into a supermassive black hole, we compute the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and Bayes factors between a test-particle waveform template and our model, which includes the spin and quadrupole of the compact object. …”

The Cosmic History of Black Hole Growth from Deep Multiwavelength Surveys by Ezequiel Treister, C. Megan Urry

“…Significant progress has been made in the last few years on understanding how supermassive black holes form and grow. In this paper, we begin by reviewing the spectral signatures of active galactic nuclei (AGN) ranging from radio to hard X-ray wavelengths. …”
