Self-consistent spherical accretion simulations show cooling-enhanced growth of PBHs with radiative efficiency ~10^{-2} in the bremsstrahlung regime, yielding a critical seed mass of ~10^{-16} M_sun to consume a solar-mass star in a Hubble time.

Optical continuum lags in NGC 4395 remain stable at 5-15 minutes over multi-year baselines with negligible diffuse continuum contribution.
Turbulent electron-ion coronae around accreting black holes self-regulate into a two-temperature state that generates nonthermal ions and X-ray spectra consistent with observations including an MeV tail.
Bayesian analysis of LISA EMRIs in AGN disks constrains disk surface density and accretion rate to ~10% using relativistic torque models, invalidating Fisher-matrix forecasts and enabling dark-siren cosmology without EM counterparts.
Slim-disk self-shadowing plus accretion-rate-dependent BLR density enhancement explains the observed offsets of high-Eddington AGNs below the canonical R-L relation.
JWST observations of ERQs show stratified gas kinematics via deblended optical emission lines, with UV lines dominated by scattered light and optical lines mixing scattered and obscured emission.
Requiring thermal stability and single-valuedness in the thin-disk Ṁ-Σ plane produces a viscosity law α(X) with X = P_gas/P_rad that eliminates the radiation-pressure dominated instability while preserving the effective-temperature profile.
Migration traps concentrate stellar-mass black holes in AGN disks, generating self-regulated magnetic reconnection heating that yields excess short-timescale optical/UV variability, flattened structure functions, and deviations from the τ∝λ^{4/3} lag relation.
HE 1237-2252 exhibits a changing-look event driven by intrinsic accretion-rate variations, revealing a two-component broad-line region consisting of virialized gas at ~27 light-days and disk emission at larger radii.

Gotta light? Illuminating AGN disks with LISA EMRIs
Bayesian analysis of LISA EMRIs in AGN disks constrains disk surface density and accretion rate to ~10% using relativistic torque models, invalidating Fisher-matrix forecasts and enabling dark-siren cosmology without EM counterparts.
