From Rare Events to a Population: Discovering Overlooked Extragalactic Magnetar Giant Flare Candidates in Archival Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Data

Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Michela Negro +16

Magnetar giant flares (MGFs) are rare, extremely bright bursts of gamma-rays from highly magnetized neutron stars. These events are challenging to identify because, at extragalacti…

GRB 250702B: Discovery of a Gamma-Ray Burst from a Black Hole Falling into a Star

Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Chris L. Fryer +52

Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe. Their prompt gamma-ray emission has typical durations between a fraction of a second and several minu…

Vacuum birefringence and the polarized X-ray emission from a radio magnetar

Rachael E. Stewart, Hoa Dinh Thi, George Younes +13

Magnetars are isolated neutron stars with exceptionally strong surface fields exceeding G. Their bright X-ray emission probes physical regimes in which quantum electrodyn…

NuSTAR Analysis of the 2024 Periastron Passage of TeV Binary PSR B1259-63

Oliver J. Roberts, Philip Kaaret, M. Lynne Saade +4

PSR B1259-63 is a well studied TeV binary, with an energetic pulsar in orbit around a Be star. Using NuSTAR observations during the 2024 passage of the pulsar through the circumste…

Determining the origin of the X-ray emission in blazars through multiwavelength polarization

Ioannis Liodakis, Haocheng Zhang, Stella Boula +48

The origin of the high-energy emission in astrophysical jets from black holes is a highly debated issue. This is particularly true for jets from supermassive black holes that are a…

Repeating flares, X-ray outbursts and delayed infrared emission: A comprehensive compilation of optical tidal disruption events

D. A. Langis, I. Liodakis, K. I. I. Koljonen +10

TDEs have been proposed as valuable laboratories for studying dormant black holes. However, progress in this field has been hampered by the limited number of observed events. In th…

X-ray Polarization of the High-Synchrotron-Peak BL Lacertae Object 1ES 1959+650 during Intermediate and High X-ray Flux States

Luigi Pacciani, Dawoon E. Kim, Riccardo Middei +97

We report the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) polarimetric and simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the high-energy-peaked BL Lacertae (HBL) object 1ES 1959+650,…
