  • The Formation and Disruption of Black Hole Jets

    Edited by Denise Gabuzda, Ioannis Contopoulos, Nikolaos Kylafis ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book reviews the phenomenology displayed by relativistic jets as well as the most recent theoretical efforts to understand the physical mechanisms at their origin. Relativistic jets have been observed and studied in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) for about half a century and are believed to be fueled by accretion onto a supermassive black hole at the center of the host galaxy. Since the first ... Read more

  • Manifestations of Dark Matter and Variations of the Fundamental Constants in Atoms and Astrophysical Phenomena

    by Yevgeny V. Stadnik ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores the possibility of searching for new effects of dark matter that are linear in g, an approach that offers enormous advantages over conventional schemes, since the interaction constant g is very small, g<<1. Further, the thesis employs an investigation of linear effects to derive new limits on certain interactions of dark matter with ordinary matter that improve on previous ... Read more
