我们认为,活动星系核1 ES 1927+654中的外观变化事件以及随后X射线亮度下降3个数量级,是由吸积率的变化和磁滞盘(MAD)中的磁通量反转控制的。在改变外观事件之前,黑洞上的强磁通量通过Blandford-Znajek过程为X射线发射提供动力,而紫外线发射是由辐射效率低下的磁化圆盘产生的。平流事件,带来相反极性的通量,向内传播导致,首先,在紫外线/光学光度上升,然后,在X射线光度下降时,它到达黑洞。我们估计的时间尺度为磁通量平流,并发现观察到的时间尺度之间的变化看事件的开始和最小的X射线光度,$\approx200$天,是在协议所需的时间,以取消磁通量在MAD延伸到$\approx180\:r_g$。虽然通量反转事件可能是罕见的,由于大的流量比,质量是必要的,我们认为,活动星系核显示出异常高的X射线紫外线光度比是这样的事件的主要候选人。我们还认为,类似的事件可能会导致射流中断无线电响亮的对象。
英文摘要:
We argue that the changing-look event in the active galactic nucleus 1ES 1927+654, followed by a dip of 3 orders of magnitude in the X-ray luminosity, is controlled by a change in the accretion rate and an inversion of magnetic flux in a magnetically arrested disk (MAD). Before the changing-look event, strong magnetic flux on the black hole powers X-ray emission via the Blandford-Znajek process while the UV emission is produced by a radiatively inefficient magnetized disk. An advection event, bringing flux of the opposite polarity, propagates inward leading, first, to a rise in the UV/optical luminosity and, then, to a dip in the X-ray luminosity when it reaches the black hole. We estimate the timescale for magnetic flux advection and find that the observed timescale between the beginning of the changing-look event and the minimum in the X-ray luminosity, $\approx200$ days, is in agreement with the time needed to cancel the magnetic flux in a MAD extending to $\approx180\:r_g$. Although flux inversion events might be rare due to the large ratio of flux-to-mass that is needed, we argue that AGN showing an unusually high ratio of X-ray to UV luminosity are prime candidates for such events. We also suggest that similar events may lead to jet interruptions in radio-loud objects.

Peculiar black hole accretion rates in AGN with highest star formation rates in the universe
Pouliasis et al(2022 b)研究了恒星形成率、黑洞吸积率和红移大于3.5的活动星系的恒星质量,发现恒星形成率在高恒星质量时趋于平稳,他们认为这是活动星系核反馈的证据。他们的数据显示,当活动星系核接近恒星形成率-恒星质量平面曲线的平坦化时,吸积率开始下降。我们描述的活动星系核反馈的性质负责这方面的强大FRII喷气机提高恒星形成率,但最终也引发了吸积从近爱丁顿率平流为主的转变。这些系统正处于一个戏剧性的转变的风口浪尖上,活动星系从强烈的增强到对恒星形成的巨大抑制,在这种方式下,与高红移的射电活动星系核和无喷流的活动星系核相比,低红移的射电活动星系核的斜率更陡。因此,我们认为,Pouliasis等人的数据构成了Singh等人(2021)预测的高红移天体,这些天体与Comerford等人(2020)所示的射电活动星系核的低红移行为有关。
