The violation of the invariance of the speed of light in Special Relativity has been made. The version of the theory (LSR) has been constructed in which the possibility of the superluminal motions are permitted. Some predictions of this…
While amongst the most luminous objects in the universe, many details regarding the inner structure of quasars remain unknown. One such area is the mechanism promoting increased polarisation in the broad absorption line troughs of certain…
A barrage relay network (BRN) is a broadcast oriented ad hoc network involving autonomous cooperative communication, a slotted time-division frame format, and a coarse slot-level synchronization. While inherently a broadcast protocol, BRNs…
New observations of the broad-line quasar PG1416-129 reveal a large decline in its continuum luminosity over the past ten years. In response to the continuum change the ``classical'' broad component of Hbeta has almost completely…
This paper Various studies cited in the literature deal with the classic problem of obstacle coverage, where the deployment environment, sensor nodes, and base stations have characteristics that are considered perfect but suffer from…
The empirical relations in the black hole-accretion disk-relativistic jet system and physical processes behind these relations are still poorly understood, partly because they operate close to the black hole within the central light year.…
The puzzling mechanism of coherent radio emission remains unknown, but fortunately, repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide a precious opportunity, with extremely bright subpulses created in a clear and vacuum-like pulsar magnetosphere.…
Broad emission lines originate in the surroundings of supermassive black holes in the centers of active galactic nuclei (AGN). One method to investigate the extent, structure, and kinematics of the BLR is to study the continuum and line…
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been an enigma since their discovery forty years ago. However, considerable progress unraveling their mysteries has been made in recent years. Developments in observations, theory, and instrumentation have…
Spectropolarimetry of broad absorption line quasi-stellar objects with the W. M. Keck Telescope is used to put constraints on their nuclear structure. If the continuum polarization is due to electron (or dust) scattering, then the scattered…
The mechanism of avoided level crossings in quantum systems is studied. It is traced back to the existence of branch points in the complex plane which influence the properties of resonance states as well as of discrete states. An avoided…
The physical origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) is still unknown. Multiwavelength and polarization observations of an FRB source would be helpful to diagnose its progenitor and environment. So far only the first repeating source FRB 121102…
Radio map in general refers to the geographical signal power spectrum density, formed by the superposition of concurrent wireless transmissions, as a function of location, frequency and time. It contains rich and useful information…
Branched flow is a universal phenomenon in which treebranch-like filaments form through traveling waves or particle flows in irregular mediums. Branched flow of high-current relativistic electron beams (REBs) has been recently discovered…
The existence of supermassive collapsed objects in the cores of most galaxies poses still-unanswered questions. First, how did they form, and how does their mass depend on the properties of the host galaxy? Second, can observations probe…
Broad lines in active galaxies are primarily emitted by photoionization processes that are driven by the incident continuum arising from a complex geometrical structure circumscribing the supermassive black hole. A model of the broad-band…
BL Lac objects (BLL) are defined by the presence of very weak (typically $<$ 5 {\AA}) or even absent spectral lines. This makes determining their distance particularly challenging, especially at high redshift, where the sources are fainter…
Region crossing change is a local operation on link diagrams. The behavior of region crossing change on $S^2$ is well understood. In this paper, we study the behavior of (modified) region crossing change on higher genus surfaces.
The components of blazar jets that emit radiation span a factor of $10^{10}$ in scale. The spatial structure of these emitting regions depends on the observed energy. Photons emitted at different sites cross the lens plane at different…
The latest analysis efforts in reverberation mapping are beginning to allow reconstruction of echo images (or velocity-delay maps) that encode information about the structure and kinematics of the broad line region (BLR) in active galactic…
