We have modelled the X-ray emission from the young rapid rotator AB Doradus (P = 0.514 days) using as a basis Zeeman-Doppler maps of the surface magnetic field. This allows us to reconcile the apparently conflicting observations of a high…

We present a data-driven analysis of the S-wave $\pi\pi \to \pi\pi\,(I=0,2)$ and $\pi K \to \pi K\,(I=1/2, 3/2)$ reactions using the partial-wave dispersion relation. The contributions from the left-hand cuts are parametrized using the…

We developed a non-linear Monte Carlo code based on the LP method proposed by Stern et al (1995). We use it to simulate an extended non-thermal X/gamma ray source coupled with a cold accretion disk. The source radiates by inverse Compton…

The bulk of the X-ray emission in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is produced very close to the accreting supermassive black hole (SMBH), in a corona of hot electrons which up scatters optical and ultraviolet photons from the accretion flow.…
