PublicationX-ray binary accretion states in active galactic nuclei? Sensing the accretion disc of supermassive black holes with mid-infrared nebular lines
Accretion states, which are universally observed in stellar mass black holes in X-ray binaries, might be expected in active galactic nuclei (AGN). This is the...
