Imprints of neutrino-pair flavor conversions on nucleosynthesis in ejecta from neutron-star merger remnants
Meng-Ru Wu, Irene Tamborra, Oliver Just +1
The remnant of neutron star mergers is dense in neutrinos. By employing inputs from one hydrodynamical simulation of a binary neutron star merger remnant with a black hole of $3\ M…
SNe 2013K and 2013am: observed and physical properties of two slow, normal Type IIP events
L. Tomasella, E. Cappellaro, M. L. Pumo +28
We present one year of optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the Type IIP SNe 2013K and 2013am. Both objects are affected by significant extinction, due to their…
Interaction of the accretion flows in corona and disk near the black hole in AGN
E. Meyer-Hofmeister, B. F. Liu, E. Qiao
Accretion flows toward black holes can be of a quite different nature, described as an optically thick cool gas flow in a disk for high accretion rates or as a hot coronal opticall…

The recent discovery of the electromagnetic counterpart of the gravitational wave source GW170817, has demonstrated the huge informative power of multi-messenger observations. Duri…
Impact of ultraluminous X-ray sources on photoabsorption in the first galaxies
Sergey Sazonov, Ildar Khabibullin
In the local Universe, integrated X-ray emission from high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) is dominated by the brightest ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) with luminosity >10^40 erg/s…
The early detection and follow-up of the highly obscured Type II supernova 2016ija/DLT16am
L. Tartaglia, D. J. Sand, S. Valenti +45
We present our analysis of the Type II supernova DLT16am (SN~2016ija). The object was discovered during the ongoing (DLT40) one day cadence supernova search a…
Neutron-star radius constraints from GW170817 and future detections
Andreas Bauswein, Oliver Just, Hans-Thomas Janka +1
We introduce a new, powerful method to constrain properties of neutron stars (NSs). We show that the total mass of GW170817 provides a reliable constraint on the stellar radius if…
Polarization of Sunyaev-Zeldovich signal due to electron pressure anisotropy in galaxy clusters
I. Khabibullin, S. Komarov, E. Churazov +1
We describe polarization of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect associated with electron pressure anisotropy likely present in the intracluster medium (ICM). The ICM is an astrophys…
Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Merger: GW170817 and GRB 170817A
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor +1
On 2017 August 17, the gravitational-wave event GW170817 was observed by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors, and the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 170817A was observed independently…
Self-inhibiting thermal conduction in high-beta, whistler-unstable plasma
S. Komarov, A. Schekochihin, E. Churazov +1
A heat flux in a high- plasma with low collisionality triggers the whistler instability. Quasilinear theory predicts saturation of the instability in a marginal state characteri…
Probing the structure of the gas in the Milky Way through X-ray high resolution spectroscopy
Efrain Gatuzz, Eugene Churazov
We have developed a new X-ray absorption model, called {\tt IONeq}, which computes the optical depth simultaneously for ions of all abundant elements, assuming ionization eq…
Gentle re-energisation of electrons in merging galaxy clusters
F. de Gasperin, H. T. Intema, T. W. Shimwell +6
Galaxy clusters are the most massive constituents of the large-scale structure of the Universe. While the hot thermal gas that pervades galaxy clusters is relatively well understoo…
A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source
S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118
Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…
Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger
E. Pian, P. D'Avanzo, S. Benetti +81
The merger of two neutron stars is predicted to give rise to three major detectable phenomena: a short burst of gamma-rays, a gravitational wave signal, and a transient optical/nea…
