... Galaxy Evolution home . ... Micro quasars Publications . ... In the last few years a very similar phenomenon has been observed in some X-ray binaries, binary stellar systems with one gravitationally-compact object (black hole or neutron star) and an "normal" star part of whos atmosphere is captured by the compact object. ... The compact objects (a few solar masses) are much smaller than those inferred in AGN (10 9 solar masses), and the sizes much smaller, so the analogy may not be complete. ...

... The hard gamma radiation from AGN is produced most probably in the relativistic jets observed in the considerable part of these objects. In the center of AGN (and may be of all other galaxies) there is a supermassive black hole surrounded by the accretion disk, which is the source of the energy in these objects. ... The problem of particle acceleration in the AGN jets is very important: the time of the electron energy losses in the jets is usually much less than their life time. ... next page . ...

... arXiv.org . astro-ph . ... We fit the near-infrared to radio spectral energy distributions of 30 luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies with pure starburst models or models that include both starburst and AGN components to determine important physical parameters for this population of objects. In particular we constrain the optical depth towards the luminosity source, the star formation rate, the star formation efficiency and the AGN fraction. ...
