Litclub Paper List

X-ray astronomy

- Electromagnetic extraction of energy from Kerr black holes (Blandford-Znajek mechanism): Blandford, Znajek, MNRAS 179, 433, 1977 [1] (although, astrophysically, the Blandford-Payne mechanism likely contributes more to jet launching, e.g., Livio, Ogilvie, Pringle, ApJ 512, 100, 1999)

- "The corona contracts in a black-hole transient": Kara et al., Nature 565 198, 2019 [2], although this result is disputed (e.g., arxiv/2112.08116)

- Connection of FRBs and magnetars: "INTEGRAL Discovery of a Burst with Associated Radio Emission from the Magnetar SGR 1935+2154" (Mereghetti, 2020ApJ...898L..29M)

- "Discovery of oscillations above 200 keV in a black hole X-ray binary with Insight-HXMT" (Ma et al., 2021NatAs...5...94M)

- "Cygnus X-1 contains a 21-solar mass black hole—Implications for massive star winds" (Miller-Jones 2021Sci...371.1046M)

- EuCAPT White Paper: Opportunities and Challenges for Theoretical Astroparticle Physics in the Next Decade (Batista et al., arxiv.org/abs/2110.10074) - perhaps too long but really interesting summary

- "Hydrodynamical backflow in X-shaped radio galaxy PKS 2014-55", Cotton et al., ApJ 495, 1271, 2020 (2020MNRAS.495.1271C)

- Dark Energy Survey 3 Year Results (e.g., http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2021arXiv210513549D)


Statistics

- "STATISTICS, HANDLE WITH CARE: DETECTING MULTIPLE MODEL COMPONENTS WITH THE LIKELIHOOD RATIO TEST" (Protassov, 2002ApJ...571..545P)

Some more extravagant stuff

- The Breakthrough Listen Search For Intelligent Life Near the Galactic Center (Gajjar et al., ApJ 162, 33, 2021)

- An Objective Bayesian Analysis of Life's Early Start and Our Late Arrival (Kipping, 2020, https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.09008)


Non-astrophysics

- creating unique random numbers using the quantum noise of the vacuum: Gabriel et al., Nature Photonics 4, 711, 2010
