Search for Continuous Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1 in LIGO O2 Data

Yuanhao Zhang, Maria Alessandra Papa, Badri Krishnan +1

We present the results of a search in LIGO O2 public data for continuous gravitational waves from the neutron star in the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1. We search for signals…

Implications of the lowest frequency detection of the persistent counterpart of FRB121102

L Resmi, J Vink, C H Ishwara-Chandra

Context. The repeating FRB121102 is so far the only extra-galactic Fast Radio Burst found to be associated with a counterpart, a steady radio source with a nearly flat spectral ene…

Observations of ultraluminous X-ray sources with the 6-m telescope of the SAO RAS

A. Vinokurov, K. Atapin, Y. Solovyeva +2

The nature of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) is not yet fully understood but it can be done in the most efficient way by analyzing its optical emission and environment. We pres…

X-ray Spectra and Light Curves of Cooling Novae and a Nova-Like

Bangzheng Sun, Marina Orio, Andrej Dobrotka +3

We present X-ray observations of novae V2491 Cyg and KT Eri about 9 years post-outburst, of the dwarf nova and post-nova candidate EY Cyg, and of a VY Scl variable. The first three…

Modeling of 35-day superorbital cycle of and light curves of IMXB HZ Her/Her X-1

D. A. Kolesnikov, N. I. Shakura, K. A. Postnov +13

The X-ray binary Her X-1 consists of an accreting neutron star and the optical component HZ Her. The 35-day X-ray superorbital variability of this system is known since its discove…

Radio activity of supermassive black holes with extremely high accretion rates

Xiaolong Yang, Su Yao, Jun Yang +8

Radio emission from the high- and super-Eddington accreting active galactic nuclei (AGNs) has various origins: a persistent jet, the magnetized corona and the wind-like outflows. I…

Fast Radio Bursts from reconnection events in magnetar magnetospheres

Maxim Lyutikov, Sergey Popov

Lyutikov (2002) predicted "radio emission from soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) during their bursting activity". Detection of a Mega-Jansky radio burst in temporal coincidence with…

The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT I: Science objectives and first results

Simon Johnston, A. Karastergiou, M. J. Keith +24

We report here on initial results from the Thousand Pulsar Array (TPA) programme, part of the Large Survey Project "MeerTime" on the MeerKAT telescope. The interferometer is used i…

A repeating fast radio burst source localised to a nearby spiral galaxy

B. Marcote, K. Nimmo, J. W. T. Hessels +51

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief, bright, extragalactic radio flashes. Their physical origin remains unknown, but dozens of possible models have been postulated. Some FRB sources…
