Revisiting EBL Constraints from Gamma-Ray Observations: A Critical Assessment and Methodological Improvements

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +185

The extragalactic background light (EBL), ranging from the infrared to the ultraviolet bands, is the second most intense photon field in the universe, surpassed only by the cosmic…

Constraints on the VHE counterpart of two binary black hole mergers observed by the MAGIC and CTAO LST-1 telescopes

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +358

We present very-high-energy gamma-ray observations of two binary black hole merger candidates, GW240615_113620 and GW241125_010116, performed with the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imagi…

Resolving SLX 1744-299 and SLX 1744-300 in the hard X-ray band: implications for their ultracompact nature

Enzo A. Saavedra, Montserrat Armas Padilla, Teo Muñoz-Darias

Persistent, low-luminosity low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) offer a unique opportunity to study accretion in this poorly understood regime, as well as to unveil new members of the u…

Dense, multi-phase accretion disk atmosphere in the low-luminosity state of black hole transientV4641 Sgr

Zuobin Zhang, Rob Fender, James H. Matthews +11

We present soft X-ray spectroscopy of the black-hole X-ray binary V4641~Sgr with the \textit{XMM-Newton} Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS). The RGS spectrum shows narrow emissi…

Exploring the nature of Galactic unassociated sources detected by the Fermi-LAT

F. Acero, A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio +120

We investigate the nature of the unassociated sources detected by the Fermi-LAT close (|b|<10°) to the Galactic plane, representing 16% of all sources in the 4FGL-DR4 catalog. The…

X-ray luminous late-type giants: an overlooked population contributing to the Galactic ridge iron line emission

Tong Bao, Gabriele Ponti, Xiao-jie Xu +8

The origin of the highly ionized iron emission (Fe XXV at ) characterizing the Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) remains a fundamental puzzle in high-energy a…
