Ultraluminous X-ray sources in the Chandra and XMM-Newton era
H Feng, R Soria - New Astronomy Reviews, 2011 - Elsevier
Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are accreting black holes that may contain the missing
population of intermediate mass black holes or reflect super-Eddington accretion physics …

Dynamics of line-driven disk winds in active galactic nuclei
We present the results of axisymmetric time-dependent hydrodynamic calculations of line-
driven winds from accretion disks in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). We assume the disk is …

Spectral properties of accretion disks around galactic and extragalactic black holes
We study the spectral properties of a very general class of accretion disks which can be
decomposed into three distinct components apart from a shock at $ r= r_s $:(1) An optically …

Ultraviolet variability of NGC 5548-Dynamics of the continuum production region and geometry of the broad-line region
We used the data obtained in the 1989-1990 IUE monitoring of NGC 5548 to derive a mean
shape for the ionizing spectrum; mean line profiles; the continuum fluctuation power …
