Variability in a low-mass active galactic nucleus: oscillation or eruption?

R Webbe, AJ Young - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Following the discovery of a new class of X-ray variability seen in four galaxies, dubbed
quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs), we reconsider the variability seen in the low-mass active …

Mantle mineralogy limits to rocky planet water inventories

CM Guimond, O Shorttle… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Nominally anhydrous minerals in rocky planet mantles can sequester multiple Earth-oceans'
worth of water. Mantle water storage capacities therefore provide an important constraint on …

Redox state and interior structure control on the long-term habitability of stagnant-lid planets

P Baumeister, N Tosi, C Brachmann… - Astronomy & …, 2023 - aanda.org
Context. A major goal in the search for extraterrestrial life is the detection of liquid water on

Machine learning applications for the study of AGN physical properties using photometric observations

S Mechbal, M Ackermann, M Kowalski - arXiv preprint arXiv:2303.18076, 2023 - arxiv.org
We investigate the physical nature of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using machine learning
(ML) tools. We show that the redshift, $ z $, bolometric luminosity, $ L_ {\rm Bol} $, central …
