Revealing a peculiar supernova remnant G106.3+2.7 as a petaelectronvolt proton accelerator with X-ray observations

Chong Ge, Ruo-Yu Liu, Shu Niu +2

Supernova remnants (SNRs) have long been considered as one of the most promising sources of Galactic cosmic rays. In the SNR paradigm, petaelectronvolt (PeV) proton acceleration ma…

GRB 180418A: A possibly-short GRB with a wide-angle outflow in a faint host galaxy

Alicia Rouco Escorial, Wen-fai Fong, Peter Veres +20

We present X-ray and multi-band optical observations of the afterglow and host galaxy of GRB 180418A, discovered by /BAT and /GBM. We present a reanalysis…

External Inverse-Compton Emission from Low-Luminosity Gamma-Ray Bursts: Application to GRB 190829A

B. Theodore Zhang, Kohta Murase, Péter Veres +1

The detection of TeV gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) brought new opportunities for studying the physics of particle acceleration at relativistic shocks. The \hess telescopes recently obser…

Is there an enormous cold front at the virial radius of the Perseus cluster?

S. A. Walker, M. S. Mirakhor, J. ZuHone +3

We present new XMM-Newton observations extending the mosaic of the Perseus cluster out to the virial radius to the west. Previous studies with ROSAT have reported a large excess in…

Observation of inverse Compton emission from a long -ray burst

V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +301

Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from ultra-relativistic jets launched from the collapsing cores of dying massive stars. They are characterised by an initial phase o…

The 2019 super-Eddington outburst of RX J0209.6-7427: Detection of pulsations and constraints on the magnetic field strength

G. Vasilopoulos, P. S. Ray, K. C. Gendreau +10

In November 2019, MAXI detected an X-ray outburst from the known Be X-ray binary system RX J0209.6-7427 located in the outer wing of the Small Magellanic Cloud. We followed the out…

The Ups & Downs of Accreting X-Ray Pulsars: Decade-long observations with the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor

C. Malacaria, P. Jenke, O. J. Roberts +3

We review more than 10 years of continuous monitoring of accreting X-ray pulsars with the all-sky Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Our work…

The Fourth Fermi-GBM Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog: A Decade of Data

A. von Kienlin, C. A. Meegan, W. S. Paciesas +18

We present the fourth in a series of catalogs of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed with Fermi's Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM). It extends the six year catalog by four more yea…
