We investigate the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at high redshift ($z \ge 10$) from a combination of dark matter capture, black-hole mergers, and gas accretion. It has previously been shown that SMBHs can form by $z \approx 10$…
In this paper, we attempt to explain the TeV - sub PeV neutrinos observed by IceCube assuming that their sources are active galactic nuclei (AGN). The results are obtained in the model where the thermal accretion disc emits in the…
The Galactic Centre gamma-ray excess (GCE) - an anomalous ~ 2-5 GeV Fermi-LAT signal around SgrA$^{\star}$ - has remained without a consensus interpretation for more than fifteen years. Dark-matter annihilation and unresolved…
We hydrodynamically simulate a core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosion by launching three pairs of jets in the framework of the jittering-jets explosion mechanism (JJEM), and reproduce a morphology of two opposite circum-jet rings and a…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are intense, short-duration radio transients of mysterious origin. They have been detected across a wide range of frequencies from 110 MHz to 8 GHz. Their spectral properties, remaining poorly understood, are…
The Hybrid Elevated Radio Observatory for Neutrinos, or HERON, is a newly proposed ultrahigh energy Earth-skimming tau neutrino detector. Ultrahigh energy tau neutrinos which skim the Earth may produce $\tau$-leptons which escape into the…
Robust age measurements for isolated neutron stars (NSs) are not easily available. That is why, often the characteristic age $\tau_\mathrm{ch}=P/2\dot P$ is used as a proxy. Here $P$ is the spin period of the NS and $\dot P$ is the time…
We carry out a search for high energy muon neutrino emission from the galaxy cluster Abell 119, motivated by a recent detection of GeV gamma rays from this cluster using the Fermi-LAT telescope, which hinted at a hadronic origin. For this…
Dynamical capture in dense stellar environments is a promising channel for producing eccentric compact binary mergers. Although there have been no confident detections of eccentric mergers to date, a few candidates show indications of…
We calculate the high-energy gamma-ray and neutrino emissions from galaxy clusters like Perseus that host active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Our primary objective is to distinguish the emission from the central source, such as NGC$1275$, from…
The origin of diffuse neutrinos and $\gamma$-rays is unknown, and galaxy clusters hosting AGN and starburst galaxies are the most probable sources of these cosmic messengers. In this work, we investigate the diffuse $\gamma$-ray and…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory are set to transform our understanding of the universe over the next decade. These two observatories have multiple areas of complementarity in their…
We analyzed 11 epochs of archival Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) data to investigate flux density variability of Sgr A* at 340 GHz. In one epoch, the light curve exhibits two short-timescale components with…
Dense, compact circumstellar media (CSM) are required to power strongly interacting supernovae, yet their physical origin remains uncertain. We present a systematic study of binary stellar evolution models computed with MESA, demonstrating…
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the universe's most energetic phenomena (isotropic luminosity $\sim 10^{51} - 10^{54}$ ergs/s) lasting for a very short duration ($\sim$ milliseconds - a few seconds). Even after an average of one GRB detected…
Light propagating through a perturbed spacetime could imprint the underlying gravitational waveform directly onto electromagnetic observables. In this Letter, we develop a covariant perturbative framework for polarized photon propagation in…
The thermal state of active galactic nucleus (AGN) coronae is commonly characterized by the electron temperature $kT_{\rm e}$, the Thomson optical depth $\tau$, and the geometry of the Comptonizing medium. We compile a literature sample of…
The historic detection of gravitational waves from the electromagnetically bright binary neutron star merger GW170817 enabled the first standard siren measurement of Hubble's constant ($H_0$). The accuracy and precision of this measurement…
The well-observed Crab pulsar helps one to uncover the underlying knowledge about pulsar evolution. The routine evolution model simultaneously describes the spin-down caused by the magnetic dipole radiation (MDR) and gravitational wave…
Low-angular-momentum, axisymmetric, inviscid accretion flows onto a black hole have been studied using the vertical equilibrium disc model, considering multiple pseudo-Schwarzschild potentials and two thermodynamic equations of state. A…
