Broad Emission-Line Shifts in Quasars: An Orientation Measure for Radio-Quiet Quasars? (2002, background): “The most obvious area of research that is affected is in the modeling of the phenomena of AGN, particularly the broad emission line region (BELR; Peterson 1997; Krolik 1999).”
Theoretical Challenges in Galaxy Formation (2016, background): “In addition to relativistic jets there are also broad-line winds observed to be commonly emitted by AGN (Yuan & Narayan 2014) and these too have been calibrated to the accretion rate empirically (Arav et al. (2013), see also Krolik 1999).”
Tidal Disruption of Stars by Supermassive Black Holes (2015, background): “indeed, it is the subject of many books, such as Krolik (1999) and Beckmann & Shrader (2012) - we do wish to mention a few points of interest.”
An X-Ray, Infrared, and Submillimeter Flare of Sagittarius A* (2007, unknown): “The electron cooling timescale due to synchrotron losses is (e.g., Krolik 1999) where the frequency ( !”
A systematic search for changing-look quasars in SDSS (2015, background): “The timescale that might be associated with an accretion rate change is the viscous, or “radial inflow” timescale (see e.g., Krolik 1999).”
The Effect of Radiation Pressure on Virial Black Hole Mass Estimates and the Case of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies (2008, background): “…that (i) each cloud is optically thick to ionizing photons but optically thin to scattering processes, (ii) the Thomson cross-section isrepresentative of all scattering processes involving free or bound electrons and (iii) both recombination and scattered photons are ’isotropically’ re-emitted.”
Spectral Classification of Quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Eigenspectra, Redshift, and Luminosity Effects (2004, background): “AGNs) have been considered less useful than broad emission lines as diagnostic tools, because AGNs with prominent narrow lines have low luminosities (see, for example, the discussion in Chapter 10 of Krolik 1999), in which case contributions from the host galaxies may aﬀect both the continuum and th”
The physics of gamma-ray bursts & relativistic jets (2014, background): “There are excellent books that cover this topic in detail such as the monograph by Rybicki and Lightman [123], and books on high energy astrophysics by Longair [124], Krolik [125], Dermer andMenon [126], Kulsrud [127].”
A UNIFIED CATALOG OF RADIO OBJECTS DETECTED BY NVSS, FIRST, WENSS, GB6, AND SDSS (2008, background): “…in NVSS. Note that while the percentage is larger for galaxies, as expected from orientation effects, this value is an upper limit for radio-optical samples using photometric optical data, as the spectroscopic SDSS sample is comprised of the nearest sources, which thus have large angular size.”
Irradiation of an accretion disc by a jet: general properties and implications for spin measurements of black holes (2013, unknown): “Following, e.g., Krolik (1999), it can be easily shown that this approach implies that the intensity observed in the stationary frame will be altered by a factor of”
DIRECT CALCULATION OF THE RADIATIVE EFFICIENCY OF AN ACCRETION DISK AROUND A BLACK HOLE (2008, methodology): “The radial boundary conditions are the same as in the released version of HARM, and we use periodic boundary conditions for the azimuthal boundaries.”
Global General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Simulation of a Tilted Black Hole Accretion Disk (2007, background): “Black hole accretion has long been postulated to power the energetic emissions seen fromquasars, active galactic nuclei (AGNs), andmanygalacticX-ray sources; there is nowample observational evidence to support such claims (e.g., Krolik 1999; McClintock &Remillard 2006).”
Fueling Low-Level AGN Activity through Stochastic Accretion of Cold Gas (2006, background): “…evolution, and pc-scale molecular torii, which have been (and continue to be) studied in detail both theoretically and observationally (see e.g., Krolik 1999, and references therein), are obviously crucial to understanding AGN activity but are outside the scope of the large-scale fueling and…”
