Daniel Stern, 2020, "THE NuSTAR EXTRAGALACTIC SURVEYS: X-RAY SPECTROSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF THE BRIGHT HARD-BAND SELECTED SAMPLE", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.E56NMC, Astrophysical Journal, JPL Open Repository
We discuss the spectral analysis of a sample of 63 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) detected above a limiting ux of S(8 24keV) = 7 1014 erg s1 cm2 in the multi-tiered NuSTAR Extragalactic Survey program. The sources span a redshift range z = 02:1, and have a median redshif... |

Daniel Stern, 2020, "A Candidate Electromagnetic Counterpart to the Binary Black Hole Merger Gravitational Wave Event GW190521g", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.QSISM2, Physical Review Letters, JPL Open Repository
We report the first plausible candidate electromagnetic (EM) counterpart to a binary black hole (BBH) merger. The EM flare is consistent with expectations for a kicked BBH merger in the accretion disk of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) [1], and is unlikely (< O(0.01%)) due to in... |

Daniel Stern, 2020, "The Unusual Broadband X-ray Spectral Variability of NGC 1313 X-1 seen with XMM-Newton, Chandra and NuSTAR", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.62MQVH, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, JPL Open Repository
We present results from the major coordinated X-ray observing program on the ULX NGC1313 X-1 performed in 2017, combining XMM-Newton, Chandra and NuSTAR, fo- cusing on the evolution of the broadband (∼0.3–30.0 keV) continuum emission. Clear and unusual spectral variability is obs... |
