Multi-epoch afterglow rebrightenings in GRB 250129A: Evidence for successive shock interactions

D. Akl, S. Antier, H. Koehn +105

Most long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit afterglows broadly consistent with external forward-shock emission, typically described by smooth broken power-law decays in the multiband…

Disc accretion onto a binary black hole in a hierarchical triple system as an origin of the most luminous hyper-soft sources

Sergei B. Popov, Galina V. Lipunova

We propose that the recently discovered luminous hypersoft X-ray sources can be explained by accretion onto a binary black hole in a hierarchical triple system. For black hole mass…
