We study the optical variability characteristics of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) AGN catalogue by utilising approximately five years of optical light curves from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF)…
The UV/optical variation, likely driven by accretion disc turbulence, is a defining characteristic of type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and quasars. In this work we investigate an interesting consequence of such turbulence using quasars…
Many nearby AGNs display a significant short-term variability. In this work we re-analyze photometric data of four active galactic nuclei observed by Kepler in order to study the flickering activity, having as main goal that of searching…
The coupling state between ions and neutrals in the interstellar medium plays a key role in the dynamics of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, but is challenging to study numerically. In this work, we investigate the damping of MHD…
We present the expected variability features in the context of the Synchro- Self-Compton (SSC) model of emission from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and show that the homogeneous SSC model describes well the observed multi- wavelength…
The puzzle of birth velocities of pulsars (pulsar kicks) could be solved by an asymmetric explosion of type II Supernovae. We propose a simple hydrodynamical mechanism in order to explain this asymmetry, through the advective-acoustic cycle…
This work presents a new theoretical and numerical model describing all possible linear interactions between upper-hybrid wave turbulence and random density fluctuations in a solar wind plasma; not only linear processes as wave reflection,…
We examine whether the spectral energy distribution of optical continuum emission of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) changes during flux variation, based on accurate and frequent monitoring observations of 11 nearby Seyfert galaxies and QSOs…
We monitored 13 moderate luminosity active galactic nuclei at z=0.36 to measure flux variability, explore feasibility of reverberation mapping, and determine uncertainties on estimating black hole mass from single-epoch data. Spectra and…
Part IA: We present numerical measurements of relativistic scaling relations in $(2+1)$-dimensional conformal fluid turbulence, which perform favourably over their non-relativistic versions. As seen with incompressible turbulence in past…
Coherent structures created through turbulent cascades play a key role in energy dissipation and particle acceleration. In this work, we investigate both current and vorticity sheets in 3D particle-in-cell simulations of decaying…
It is generally thought that AGN optical variability is produced, at least in part, by reprocessing of central X-rays by a surrounding accretion disc, resulting in wavelength-dependent lags between bands. Any good model of AGN optical…
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) jets are powerful drivers of galaxy evolution, depositing energy and momentum into the circumgalactic and intracluster medium (CGM/ICM) and regulating gas cooling and star formation. We investigate the dynamics…
The nonlinear dynamics of a bundle of magnetic flux ropes driven by stationary fluid motions at their endpoints is studied, by performing numerical simulations of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. The development of MHD turbulence is…
The normalized excess variance is a popular method used by many authors to estimate the variability of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), especially in the X-ray band. We show that this estimator is affected by the cosmological time dilation,…
The effect of a temperature dependent bulk viscosity to entropy density ratio~($\zeta/s$) along with a constant shear viscosity to entropy density ratio~($\eta/s$) on the space time evolution of the fluid produced in high energy heavy ion…
For quantum fields on a curved spacetime with an Euclidean section, we derive a general expression for the stress energy tensor two-point function in terms of the effective action. The renormalized two-point function is given in terms of…
The outer envelopes of massive ($M\gtrsim10\,M_{\odot}$) stars exhibit large increases in opacities from forests of lines and ionization transitions (particularly from iron and helium) that trigger near-surface convection zones.…
The energy spectrum of superfluid turbulence in the absence of the normal fluid is studied numerically. In order to discuss the statistical properties, we calculated the energy spectra of the 3D velocity field induced by dilute and dense…
We present a Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) study of buoyancy-driven bubbly flows in the presence of large scale driving that generates turbulence. On increasing the turbulence intensity: (a) the bubble trajectories become more curved,…
