X-ray Eclipses of Active Galactic Nuclei

X-ray variation is a ubiquitous feature of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), however, its origin is not well understood. In this paper, we show that the X-ray flux variations in some AGNs, and correspondingly the power spectral densities (PSDs) of the variations, may be interpreted as being caused by absorptions of eclipsing clouds or clumps in the broad line region (BLR) and the dusty torus. By performing Monte-Carlo simulations for a number of plausible cloud models, we systematically investigate the statistics of the X-ray variations resulting from the cloud eclipsing and the PSDs of the variations. For these models, we show that the number of eclipsing events can be significant and the absorption column densities due to those eclipsing clouds can be in the range from 10^{21} to 10^{24} cm^{-2}, leading to significant X-ray variations. We find that the PSDs obtained from the mock observations for the X-ray flux and the absorption column density resulting from these models can be described by a broken double power law, similar to those directly measured from observations of some AGNs. The shape of the PSDs depend strongly on the kinematic structures and the intrinsic properties of the clouds in AGNs. We demonstrate that the X-ray eclipsing model can naturally lead to a strong correlation between the break frequencies (and correspondingly the break timescales) of the PSDs and the masses of the massive black holes (MBHs) in the model AGNs, which can be well consistent with the one obtained from observations. Future studies of the PSDs of the AGN X-ray (and possibly also the optical-UV) flux and column density variations may provide a powerful tool to constrain the structure of the BLR and the torus and to estimate the MBH masses in AGNs.

Dependence of the broad Fe K$α$ line on the physical parameters of AGN

In this paper, the dependence of the broad Fe K$α$ line on the physical parameters of AGN, such as the black hole mass $M_{BH}$, accretion rate (equivalently represented by Eddington ratio $λ_{Edd}$), and optical classification, is investigated by applying the X-ray spectra stacking method to a large sample of AGN which have well measured optical parameters. A broad line feature is detected ($>3σ$) in the stacked spectra of the high $λ_{Edd}$ sub-sample ($\logλ_{Edd}>-0.9$). The profile of the broad line can be well fitted with relativistic broad line model, with the line energy consistent with highly ionized Fe K$α$ line (i.e. Fe xxvi). A model consisting of multiple narrow lines cannot be ruled out, however. We found hints that the Fe K line becomes broader as the $λ_{Edd}$ increases. No broad line feature is shown in the sub-sample of broad-line Seyfert 1 (BLS1) galaxies and in the full sample, while a broad line might be present, though at low significance, in the sub-sample of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies. We find no strong dependence of the broad line on black hole masses. Our results indicate that the detection/properties of the broad Fe K$α$ line may strongly depend on $λ_{Edd}$, which can be explained if the ionization state and/or truncation radius of the accretion disc changes with $λ_{Edd}$. The non-detection of the broad line in the BLS1 sub-sample can be explained if the the average EW of the relativistic Fe K$α$ line is weak or/and the fraction of sources with relativistic Fe K$α$ line is small in BLS1 galaxies.

Prospects for constraining the spin of the massive black hole at the Galactic center via the relativistic motion of a surrounding star

In this paper, we investigate the quality of constraining the spin of the massive black hole (MBH) at the Galactic center (GC) by using full general relativistic simulations of the motion of a surrounding star. We obtain the dependence mapping of the spin-induced signals on any spin direction of the MBH for given example stars, which indicates the feasibility to test whether the spin direction is the same as the normal of the young stellar disk located at the GC, and, further to provide insights into the assembly history of the MBH. We demonstrate the quality of constraining the MBH spin that may be achieved, given any set of the astrometric and the redshift precisions of observational facilities. We find that in the ranges of the astrometric and the velocity precisions with 1--30$μ$as and 0.1--10 km/s, an improvement in astrometric precision would be more effective at improving the quality of constraining the spin than an improvement in velocity precision. We obtain the parameter space of the semimajor axis and the eccentricity for the orbit of the target star that a high-precision constraint on the GC MBH spin can be obtained via the motion of the star. Our results show that the spin of the GC MBH can be constrained with 1-sigma error <~0.1 or even >~0.02 by monitoring the orbital motion of a star, if existing as expected, with semimajor axis <~300AU and eccentricity >~0.95 over a period shorter than a decade through future facilities.

A Baryonic Effect on the Merger Timescale of Galaxy Clusters

Accurate estimation of the merger timescale of galaxy clusters is important to understand the cluster merger process and further the formation and evolution of the large-scale structure of the universe. In this paper, we explore a baryonic effect on the merger timescale of galaxy clusters by using hydrodynamical simulations. We find that the baryons play an important role in accelerating the merger process. The merger timescale decreases with increasing the gas fraction of galaxy clusters. For example, the merger timescale is shortened by a factor of up to 3 for merging clusters with gas fractions 0.15, compared with the timescale obtained with zero gas fractions. The baryonic effect is significant for a wide range of merger parameters and especially more significant for nearly head-on mergers and high merging velocities. The baryonic effect on the merger timescale of galaxy clusters is expected to have impacts on the structure formation in the universe, such as the cluster mass function and massive substructures in galaxy clusters, and a bias of "no-gas" may exist in the results obtained from the dark matter-only cosmological simulations.

Simulating the galaxy cluster "El Gordo" and identifying the merger configuration

The observational features of the massive galaxy cluster "El Gordo" (ACT-CL J0102-4915), such as the X-ray emission, the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, and the surface mass density distribution, indicate that they are caused by an exceptional ongoing high-speed collision of two galaxy clusters, similar to the well-known Bullet Cluster. We perform a series of hydrodynamical simulations to investigate the merging scenario and identify the initial conditions for the collision in ACT-CL J0102-4915. By surveying the parameter space of the various physical quantities that describe the two colliding clusters, including their total mass (M), mass ratio (ξ), gas fractions (f_b), initial relative velocity (V), and impact parameter (P), we find out an off-axis merger with P~800h_{70}^{-1}kpc, V~2500km/s, M~3x10^{15}Msun, and ξ=3.6 that can lead to most of the main observational features of ACT-CL J0102-4915. Those features include the morphology of the X-ray emission with a remarkable wake-like substructure trailing after the secondary cluster, the X-ray luminosity and the temperature distributions, and also the SZ temperature decrement. The initial relative velocity required for the merger is extremely high and rare compared to that inferred from currently available Lambda cold dark matter (LCDM) cosmological simulations, which raises a potential challenge to the LCDM model, in addition to the case of the Bullet Cluster.

Quiescent luminous red galaxies (LRGs) as cosmic chronometers: on the significance of mass and environmental dependence

Massive luminous red galaxies (LRGs) are believed to be evolving passively and can be used as cosmic chronometers to estimate the Hubble constant. However, different LRGs may be located in different environments. The environmental effects may limit the use of the LRGs as cosmic chronometers. We aim to investigate the environmental and mass dependence of the formation of 'quiescent' LRGs selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Date Release 8 and to pave the way for using LRGs as cosmic chronometers. Using the population synthesis software STARLIGHT, we derive the stellar populations in each LRG through the full spectrum fitting and obtain the mean age distribution and the mean star formation history (SFH) of those LRGs. We find that there is no apparent dependence of the mean age and the SFH of quiescent LRGs on their environment, while the ages of those quiescent LRGs depend weakly on their mass. We compare the SFHs of the SDSS LRGs with those obtained from a semi-analytical galaxy formation model, and find that they are roughly consistent with each other if we consider the errors in the STARLIGHT-derived ages. We find that a small fraction of later star formation in LRGs leads to a systematical overestimation (~28 %) of the Hubble constant by the differential age method, and the systematical errors in the STARLIGHT-derived ages may lead to an underestimation (~ 16 %) of the Hubble constant. However, these errors can be corrected by a detailed study of the mean SFH of those LRGs and by calibrating the STARLIGHT-derived ages to those obtained independently by other methods. The environmental effects do not play significant role in the age estimates of quiescent LRGs, and the quiescent LRGs as a population can be used securely as cosmic chronometers.

A probable Milli-Parsec Supermassive Binary Black Hole in the Nearest Quasar Mrk 231

Supermassive binary black holes (BBHs) are unavoidable products of galaxy mergers and are expected to exist in the cores of many quasars. Great effort has been made during the past several decades to search for BBHs among quasars; however, observational evidence for BBHs remains elusive and ambiguous, which is difficult to reconcile with theoretical expectations. In this paper, we show that the distinct optical-to-UV spectrum of Mrk 231 can be well interpreted as emission from accretion flows onto a BBH, with a semimajor axis of ~590AU and an orbital period of ~1.2 year. The flat optical and UV continua are mainly emitted from a circumbinary disk and a mini-disk around the secondary black hole (BH), respectively; and the observed sharp drop off and flux deficit at wavelength lambda ~ 4000-2500 Angstrom is due to a gap (or hole) opened by the secondary BH migrating within the circumbinary disk. If confirmed by future observations, this BBH will provide a unique laboratory to study the interplay between BBHs and accretion flows onto them. Our result also demonstrates a new method to find sub-parsec scale BBHs by searching for deficits in the optical-to-UV continuum among the spectra of quasars.

On Testing the Kerr Metric of the Massive Black Hole in the Galactic Center via Stellar Orbital Motion: Full General Relativistic Treatment

The S-stars in the Galactic center (GC) are anticipated to provide unique dynamical constraint on the spin of the GC massive black hole (MBH). In this paper, we develop a fast full general relativistic method to simultaneously constrain the MBH mass, spin, and spin direction by considering both the motion of a star and the propagation of photons from the star to a distant observer. Assuming some example stars, we demonstrate that the spin-induced effects on the projected trajectory and redshift curve of a star depend on both the value and the direction of the spin. The maximum effects over a full orbit can differ by a factor upto more than one order of magnitude for cases with significantly different spin directions. Adopting the Markov Chain Monte Carlo fitting technique, we illustrate that the spin of the GC MBH is likely to be well constrained by using the motion of S0-2/S2 over a period of ~45yr if it is close to one and the astrometric and spectroscopic precisions (sigma_p,sigma_Z) can be as high as (10muas, 1km/s). In the mean time, the distance from the sun to the GC and the MBH mass can also be constrained to an unprecedented accuracy (0.01%-0.1%). If there exists a star with semimajor axis significantly smaller than that of S0-2/S2 and eccentricity larger than that of S0-2/S2, the MBH spin can be constrained with high accuracy over a period of <~10yr for (sigma_p,sigma_Z) ~ (10muas,1km/s), even if the spin is only moderately large (>~0.2).

Relativistic Fe K$α$ Line Revealed in the Composite X-ray Spectrum of Narrow Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies --- do their black holes have averagely low or intermediate spins?

While a broad profile of the Fe K$α$ emission line is frequently found in the X-ray spectra of typical Seyfert galaxies, the situation is unclear in the case of Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s)---an extreme subset which are generally thought to harbor less massive black holes with higher accretion rates. In this paper, the ensemble property of the Fe K$α$ line in NLS1s is investigated by stacking the X-ray spectra of a large sample of 51 NLS1s observed with {\it XMM-Newton}. The composite X-ray spectrum reveals a prominent, broad emission feature over 4--7 keV, characteristic of the broad Fe K$α$ line. In addition, there is an indication for a possible superimposing narrow (unresolved) line, either emission or absorption, corresponding to Fe XXVI or Fe XXV, respectively. The profile of the broad emission feature can well be fitted with relativistic broad-line models, with the line energy consistent either with 6.4 keV (i.e., neutral Fe) or with 6.67 keV (i.e., highly ionized Fe), in the case of the narrow line being emission and absorption, respectively. Interestingly, there are tentative indications for low or intermediate values of the average spins of the black holes ($a<0.84$), as inferred from the profile of the composite broad line. If the observed feature is indeed a broad line rather than resulting from partial covering absorption, our results suggest that a relativistic Fe line may in fact be common in NLS1s; and there are tentative indications that black holes in NLS1s may not spin very fast in general.

Cyclic universe due to phantom and quintessence

We explore a cyclic universe due to phantom and quintessence fields. We find that, in every cycle of the evolution of the universe, the phantom dominates the cosmic early history and quintessence dominates the cosmic far future. In this model of universe, there are infinite cycles of expansion and contraction. Different from the inflationary universe, the corresponding cosmic space-time is geodesically complete and quantum stable. But similar to the Cyclic Model, the flatness problem, the horizon problem and the large scale structure of the universe can be explained in this cyclic universe.

Probing baryonic processes and gastrophysics in the formation of the Milky Way dwarf satellites: I. metallicity distribution properties

In this paper, we study the chemical properties of the stars in the dwarf satellites around the MW-like host galaxies, and explore the possible effects of several baryonic processes, including supernova (SN) feedback, the reionization of the universe and H$_2$ cooling, on them and how current and future observations may put some constraints on these processes. We use a semi-analytical model to generate MW-like galaxies, for which a fiducial model can reproduce the luminosity function and the stellar metallicity--stellar mass correlation of the MW dwarfs. Using the simulated MW-like galaxies, we focus on investigating three metallicity properties of their dwarfs: the stellar metallicity--stellar mass correlation of the dwarf population, and the metal-poor and metal-rich tails of the stellar metallicity distribution in individual dwarfs. We find that (1) the slope of the stellar metallicity--stellar mass correlation is sensitive to the SN feedback strength and the reionization epoch; (2) the extension of the metal-rich tails is mainly sensitive to the SN feedback strength; (3) the extension of the metal-poor tails is mainly sensitive to the reionization epoch; (4) none of the three chemical properties are sensitive to the H$_2$ cooling process; and (5) comparison of our model results with the current observational slope of the stellar metallicity--stellar mass relation suggests that the local universe is reionized earlier than the cosmic average and local sources may have a significant contribution to the reionization in the local region, and an intermediate to strong SN feedback strength is preferred. Future observations of metal-rich and metal-poor tails of stellar metallicity distributions will put further constraints on the SN feedback and the reionization processes.

Offsets between the X-ray and the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-effect peaks in merging galaxy clusters and their cosmological implications

Observations reveal that the peaks of the X-ray map and the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect map of some galaxy clusters are offset from each other. In this paper, we perform a set of hydrodynamical simulations of mergers of two galaxy clusters to investigate the spatial offset between the maxima of the X-ray and the SZ surface brightness of the merging clusters. We find that significantly large SZ-X-ray offsets (>100kpc) can be produced during the major mergers of galaxy clusters. The significantly large offsets are mainly caused by a `jump effect' occurred between the primary and secondary pericentric passages of the two merging clusters, during which the X-ray peak may jump to the densest gas region located near the center of the small cluster, but the SZ peak remains near the center of the large one. Our simulations show that merging systems with higher masses and larger initial relative velocities may result in larger offset sizes and longer offset time durations; and only nearly head-on mergers are likely to produce significantly large offsets. We further investigate the statistical distribution of the SZ-X-ray offset sizes and find that (1) the number distribution of the offset sizes is bimodal with one peak located at low offsets ~0 and the other at large offsets ~350-450kpc/h, but the objects with intermediate offsets are scarce; and (2) the probabilities of the clusters in the mass range higher than 2x10^{14}Msun/h that have offsets larger than 20, 50, 200, 300, and 500kpc/h are 34.0%, 11.1%, 8.0%, 6.5%, and 2.0% respectively at z=0.7. The probability is sensitive to the underlying pairwise velocity distribution and the merger rate of clusters. Future observations on the offsets for a large number of clusters may put strong constraints on the cosmic velocity fields on the cluster scale and the cluster merger rate. (Abridged)

Cosmological parameter fittings with the BICEP2 data

Combining the latest Planck, Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP), and baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) data, we exploit the recent cosmic microwave background (CMB) B-mode power spectra data released by the BICEP2 collaboration to constrain the cosmological parameters of the $Λ$CDM model, esp. the primordial power spectra parameters of the scalar and the tensor modes, $n_s,α_s, r, n_t$. We obtained constraints on the parameters for a lensed $Λ$CDM model using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique, the marginalized $68\%$ bounds are $r = 0.1043\pm_{0.0914}^{0.0307}$, $n_s = 0.9617\pm_{0.0061}^{ 0.0061}$, $α_s = -0.0175\pm_{0.0097}^{0.0105}$, $n_t = 0.5198\pm_{0.4579}^{0.4515}$. We found that a blue tilt for $n_t$ is favored slightly, but it is still well consistent with flat or even red tilt. Our $r$ value is slightly smaller than the one obtained by the BICEP team, as we allow $n_t$ as a free parameter without imposing the single-field slow roll inflation consistency relation. If we impose this relation, $r=0.2130\pm_{0.0609}^{0.0446}$. For most other parameters, the best fit values and measurement errors are not altered much by the introduction of the BICEP2 data.

Microlensing of Sub-parsec Massive Binary Black Holes in Lensed QSOs: Light Curves and Size-Wavelength Relation

Sub-parsec binary massive black holes (BBHs) are long anticipated to exist in many QSOs but remain observationally elusive. In this paper, we propose a novel method to probe sub-parsec BBHs through microlensing of lensed QSOs. If a QSO hosts a sub-parsec BBH in its center, it is expected that the BBH is surrounded by a circum-binary disk, each component of the BBH is surrounded by a small accretion disk, and a gap is opened by the secondary component in between the circum-binary disk and the two small disks. Assuming such a BBH structure, we generate mock microlensing light curves for some QSO systems that host BBHs with typical physical parameters. We show that microlensing light curves of a BBH QSO system at the infrared-optical-UV bands can be significantly different from those of corresponding QSO system with a single massive black hole (MBH), mainly because of the existence of the gap and the rotation of the BBH (and its associated small disks) around the center of mass. We estimate the half-light radii of the emission region at different wavelengths from mock light curves and find that the obtained half-light radius vs. wavelength relations of BBH QSO systems can be much flatter than those of single MBH QSO systems at a wavelength range determined by the BBH parameters, such as the total mass, mass ratio, separation, accretion rates, etc. The difference is primarily due to the existence of the gap. Such unique features on the light curves and half-light radius-wavelength relations of BBH QSO systems can be used to select and probe sub-parsec BBHs in a large number of lensed QSOs to be discovered by current and future surveys, including the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS), the Large Synoptic Survey telescope (LSST) and Euclid.

On the Existence of Pulsars in the Vicinity of the Massive Black Hole in the Galactic Center

Pulsars, if existing and detectable in the immediate vicinity of the massive black hole (MBH) in the Galactic center (GC), may be used as a superb tool to probe both the environment and the metric of the central MBH. The recent discovery of a magnetized pulsar in the GC suggests that many more pulsars should exist near the MBH. In this paper, we estimate the number and the orbital distribution of pulsars in the vicinity of the MBH in the GC by assuming that the pulsar progenitors, similar to the GC S-stars, were captured to orbits tightly bound to the MBH through the tidal breakup of stellar binaries. We use the current observations on both the GC S-stars and the hypervelocity stars to calibrate the injection rate(s) of and the dynamical model(s) for the stellar binaries. By including the relaxation processes, supernova kicks, and gravitational wave radiation in our simulations, we estimate that ~97-190 (9-14) pulsars may presently orbit the central MBH with semimajor axes <=4000AU (<=1000AU), which is compatible with the current observational constraints on the number of the GC pulsars. The semimajor axis and the pericenter distance of the pulsar closest to the central MBH are probably in the range of ~120-460AU and ~2-230AU, respectively. Future telescopes, such as the SKA, may be able to detect a significant number of pulsars with semimajor axis smaller than a few thousand AU in the GC. Long-term monitoring of these pulsars would be helpful in constraining both the environment and the metric of the central MBH. Our preferred model also results in about ten hyperfast pulsars with velocity >~1500km/s moving away from the Milky Way.

Radiative Efficiency of Disk Accretion in Individual SDSS QSOs

We estimate the radiative efficiency (epsilon) of individual type 1 SDSS QSOs by using their bolometric luminosities (L_{bol}) and accretion rates (\dot{M}_{\bullet,acc}), which may be related to the assembly histories and spins of the central massive black holes (MBHs). We estimate L_{bol} by using the empirical spectral energy distributions of QSOs and \dot{M}_{\bullet,acc} by fitting the observed optical luminosity(/-ies) with the thin accretion disk model, assuming the MBH masses given by the virial mass estimator(s) (M_{\bullet,vir}). We find an apparent correlation between epsilon and M_{\bullet,vir}, which is strong at redshift z \la 1.8, weak at z \ga 2, and consistent with that found by Davis & Laor (2011) for 80 PG QSOs at z \leq 0.5. To investigate whether this correlation is intrinsic or not, we construct a mock sample of QSOs according to the true MBH mass and Eddington ratio distributions given in Kelly & Shen (2013). By comparing the results obtained from the mock sample with that from the SDSS sample, we demonstrate that the apparent epsilon-M_{\bullet,vir} correlation can be produced by and mainly due to the selection effects of the SDSS sample and the bias induced by the usage of M_{\bullet,vir} as the true MBH mass. The mean values of epsilon of those SDSS QSOs are consistent with being a constant \simeq 0.11-0.16 over the redshift range of 0.3 \la z \la 4. We conclude that the current SDSS QSO data is consistent with no strong intrinsic correlation between radiative efficiency and true MBH mass and no significant redshift evolution of radiative efficiencies.

S-stars in the Galactic center and hypervelocity stars in the Galactic halo: two faces of the tidal breakup of stellar binaries by the central massive black hole?

In this paper, we investigate the link between the hypervelocity stars (HVSs) discovered in the Galactic halo and the S-stars moving in the Galactic center (GC), under the hypothesis that they are both the products of the tidal breakup of the same population of stellar binaries by the central massive black hole (MBH). By adopting several hypothetical models for binaries to be injected into the vicinity of the MBH and doing numerical simulations, we realize the tidal breakup processes of the binaries and their follow-up evolution. We find that many statistical properties of the detected HVSs and S-stars can be reproduced under some binary injecting models, and their number ratio can be reproduced if the stellar initial mass function is top-heavy (e.g., with slope ~-1.6). The total number of the captured companions is ~50 that have masses in the range ~3-7Msun and semimajor axes <~4000 AU and survive to the present within their main-sequence lifetime. The innermost one is expected to have a semimajor axis ~300-1500 AU and a pericenter distance ~10-200 AU, with a significant probability of being closer to the MBH than S2. Future detection of such a closer star would offer an important test to general relativity. The majority of the surviving ejected companions of the S-stars are expected to be located at Galactocentric distances <~20 kpc, and have heliocentric radial velocities ~-500-1500 km/s and proper motions up to ~5-20 mas/yr. Future detection of these HVSs may provide evidence for the tidal-breakup formation mechanism of the S-stars.

On the Full Spectrum Fitting of Luminous Red Galaxies by Using ULySS and STARLIGHT

In this paper, we select a sample of quiescent luminous red galaxies (LRGs) from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7) with signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) substantially high to study the consistency of the full spectrum fitting method by using different packages, mainly, ULySS and STARLIGHT. The spectrum of each galaxy in the sample is fitted by the full spectrum fitting packages ULySS and STARLIGHT, respectively. We find: (1) for spectra with higher S/Ns, the ages of stellar populations obtained from ULySS are slightly older than that from STARLIGHT, and metallicities derived from ULySS are slightly richer than that from STARLIGHT. In general, both packages can give roughly consistent fitting results. (2) for low S/N spectra, it is possible that the fitting by ULySS can be trapped some local minimum parametric regions during execution and thus may give unreliable results, while STARLIGHT can still give reliable results. Based on the fitting results of LRGs, we further analyse their star formation history (SFH) and the relation between their age and velocity dispersion, and find that those highly agrees with conclusions from others' previous work.
