Description
The amplitude of the gravitational waves emitted by a binary system of arbitrary eccentricity and orientation is developed in Fourier-Bessel series. Periastron advance is also considered. We discuss the influence of the orbital parameters in the spectrum of the wave amplitude. The dominant harmonic in the spectra gives a good estimation of the eccentricity. Periastron advance modulates the shape of the gravitational radiation field, splitting the basical harmonics. The analytical formulae presented here are useful for studying the contribution of binary systems to the gravitational radiation background.

    The variability patterns of the TeV blazar PG 1553 + 113 from a decade of MAGIC and multiband observations

    PG 1553 + 113 is one of the few blazars with a convincing quasi-periodic emission in the gamma-ray band. The source is also a very high energy (VHE; >100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter. To better understand its properties and identify the underlying physical processes driving its variability, the MAGIC Collaboration initiated a multiyear, multiwavelength

    A Perspective on the Milky Way Bulge Bar as Seen from the Neutron-capture Elements Cerium and Neodymium with APOGEE

    This study probes the chemical abundances of the neutron-capture elements cerium and neodymium in the inner Milky Way from an analysis of a sample of ∼2000 stars in the Galactic bulge bar spatially contained within ∣X Gal∣ < 5 kpc, ∣Y Gal∣ < 3.5 kpc, and ∣Z Gal∣ < 1 kpc, and spanning metallicities between ‑2.0 ≲ [Fe/H] ≲ +0.5. We classify the

    Observational Tests of Active Galactic Nuclei Feedback: An Overview of Approaches and Interpretation

    Growing supermassive black holes (Active Galactic Nuclei; AGN) release energy with the potential to alter their host galaxies and larger-scale environment; a process named "AGN feedback". Feedback is a required component of galaxy formation models and simulations to explain the observed properties of galaxy populations. We provide a broad overview
