  • Extremal charged black holes, dark matter and dark energy 
    Sivaram, C; Arun, K; Prasad, A (Springer, 2018-10)

    A small subset of optically selected radio-quiet quasars showing weak or no emission lines may turn out to be the elusive radio-quiet BL Lac objects, or simply be radio-quiet QSOs with a still-forming/shielded broad line ...

  • Double Peaks of the Solar Cycle: An Explanation from a Dynamo Model 
    Karak, B. B; Mandal, Sudip; Banerjee, D (IOP Publishing, 2018-10-10)
    One peculiar feature of the solar cycle that is yet to be understood properly is the frequent occurrence of double peaks (also known as the Gnevyshev peaks). The double peaks, and also multiple peaks and spikes, are often ...
  • Polarization and QPOs from jets in black hole systems 
    Mangalam, A (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018-12)
    The historical observations of polarized jet emission for Blazars are reviewed and previous models are discussed. Motivated by this, a model for polarization of both steady and transient behavior using a helical magnetic ...
