Unveiling the origin of the optical/UV emission from the Galactic ULX Swift J0243.6+6124 during its 2017-2018 giant outburst
J. Alfonso-Garzón, J. van den Eijnden, N. P. M. Kuin +8
From late September 2017 to February 2018, the Be X-ray binary (BeXB) Swift J0243.6+6124 underwent an unprecedently bright giant outburst. The reported X-ray luminosities were so h…
GRB 180128A: A Second Magnetar Giant Flare Candidate from the Sculptor Galaxy
Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Oliver J. Roberts +14
Magnetars are slowly rotating neutron stars that possess the strongest magnetic fields () known in the cosmos. They display a range of transient high-en…
iid2022: A Workshop on Statistical Methods for Event Data in Astronomy
Eric D. Feigelson, Massimiliano Bonamente
We review the iid2022 workshop on statistical methods for X-ray and -ray astronomy and high--energy astrophysics event data in astronomy, held in Guntersville, AL, on Nov. 15-18…
Measuring the hot ICM velocity structure function using XMM-Newton observations
Efrain Gatuzz, R. Mohapatra, C. Federrath +4
It has been shown that the gas velocities within the intracluster medium (ICM) can be measured by applying novel XMM-Newton EPIC-pn energy scale calibration, which uses instrumenta…
X-ray polarimetry and spectroscopy of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary GX 9+9: an in-depth study with IXPE and NuSTAR
F. Ursini, R. Farinelli, A. Gnarini +101
We report on a comprehensive analysis of simultaneous X-ray polarimetric and spectral data of the bright atoll source GX 9+9 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and…
Extreme Variability in a Long Duration Gamma-ray Burst Associated with a Kilonova
P. Veres, P. N. Bhat, E. Burns +19
The recent discovery of a kilonova from the long duration gamma-ray burst, GRB 211211A, challenges classification schemes based on temporal information alone. Gamma-ray properties…
Deciphering the unusual stellar progenitor of GRB 210704A
R. L. Becerra, E. Troja, A. M. Watson +16
GRB~210704A is a burst of intermediate duration (~s) followed by a fading afterglow and an optical excess that peaked about 7 days after the explosion. Its propert…
A Model of EUV Emission from Clusters of Galaxies
Richard Lieu, Chun-Hui Shi
With tantalizing evidence of the recent e-Rosita mission, re-discovering very soft X-rays and EUV radiation from a cluster of galaxies or its environment, the question of the origi…
Intergalactic magnetic field studies by means of -ray emission from GRB 190114C
Paolo Da Vela, Guillem Martí-Devesa, Francesco Gabriele Saturni +3
The presence of delayed GeV emission after a strong transient, such as a GRB (Gamma-Ray Burst), in the VHE (Very-High Energy, GeV) band can be the signature of a non-zero m…
Fermi-GBM Discovery of GRB 221009A: An Extraordinarily Bright GRB from Onset to Afterglow
S. Lesage, P. Veres, M. S. Briggs +136
We report the discovery of GRB 221009A, the highest flux gamma-ray burst ever observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). This GRB has continuous prompt emission lasting m…
The IXPE view of GRB 221009A
Michela Negro, Niccoló Di Lalla, Nicola Omodei +108
We present the IXPE observation of GRB 221009A which includes upper limits on the linear polarization degree of both prompt and afterglow emission in the soft X-ray energy band. GR…
Chemical enrichment of the ICM within the Virgo cluster I: radial profiles
Efrain Gatuzz, J. Sanders, K. Dennerl +8
We present a detailed analysis of the elemental abundances distribution of the Virgo cluster using {\it XMM-Newton} observations. We included in the analysis a new EPIC-pn energy s…
GRB 221009A: Discovery of an Exceptionally Rare Nearby and Energetic Gamma-Ray Burst
Maia A. Williams, Jamie A. Kennea, S. Dichiara +53
We report the discovery of the unusually bright long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A, as observed by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift), Monitor of All-sky X-ra…
GRB 221009A, The BOAT
Eric Burns, Dmitry Svinkin, Edward Fenimore +23
GRB 221009A has been referred to as the Brightest Of All Time (the BOAT). We investigate the veracity of this statement by comparing it with a half century of prompt gamma-ray burs…
Kilohertz quasiperiodic oscillations in short gamma-ray bursts
Cecilia Chirenti, Simone Dichiara, Amy Lien +2
Short gamma-ray bursts are associated with binary neutron star mergers, which are multimessenger astronomical events that have been observed both in gravitational waves and in the…
