First Detection of Mid-infrared Variability from an Ultraluminous X-Ray Source Holmberg II X-1
We present mid-infrared (IR) light curves of the Ultraluminous X-ray Source (ULX) Holmberg II X-1 from observations taken between 2014 January 13 and 2017 January 5 with the Spitzer Space Telescope at 3.6 and 4.5 μm in the Spitzer Infrared Intensive Transients Survey. The mid-IR light curves, which reveal the first detection of mid-IR variability from a ULX, is determined to arise primarily fro...
متن کاملA Novel Few-Cycle Optical Source in the Mid-Infrared
In this thesis, I designed, simulated, and implemented a novel optical pulse generation system which is shown to be able to generate exceptionally short optical pulses in the mid-infrared, tunable from 2-4psm with pulse widths as low as 1.5 optical cycles at 3.5pum (18fs). Energies as high a 1pAJ were achieved, representing a peak power of roughly 100MW, at a 1kHz repetition rate, with excellen...
متن کاملInterannual variability of mid‐tropospheric CO2 from Atmospheric Infrared Sounder
[1] Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) offers a unique opportunity to investigate the variability of mid‐tropospheric CO2 over the entire globe. In this paper, we use AIRS data to examine the interannual variability of CO2 and find significant correlations between AIRS mid‐tropospheric CO2 and large‐scale atmospheric dynamics. During El Niño events, mid‐tropospheric CO2 over the central Pacifi...
متن کاملFrequency-comb-referenced mid-infrared source for high-precision spectroscopy.
We report on a tunable continuous-wave mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator (OPO), which is locked to a fully stabilized near-infrared optical frequency comb using a frequency doubling scheme. The OPO is used for 40 GHz mode-hop-free, frequency-comb-locked scans in the wavelength region between 2.7 and 3.4 μm. We demonstrate the applicability of the method to high-precision cavity-ring-do...
متن کاملAccretion Disks , Jets and Blazar Variability
Although blazar variability is probably dominated by emission from relativistic jets, accretion disks should be present in all blazars. These disks produce emission over most of the electromagnetic spectrum; various unstable processes operate in those disks which will lead to variable emission. Here I summarize some of the most relevant disk mechanisms for AGN variability. I also discuss some a...
