On accretion in the eclipsing polar BS Tri

A. I. Kolbin, N. V. Borisov, N. A. Serebriakova +4

We analyze spectroscopic and photometric observations of the eclipsing polar BS Tri. The polar's light curve shape variations can be interpreted by changing contributions of the ac…

Effective resistivity in relativistic collisionless plasmoid-mediated reconnection

Sebastiaan Selvi, Oliver Porth, Bart Ripperda +3

Magnetic reconnection can power spectacular high-energy astrophysical phenomena by producing non-thermal energy distributions in highly magnetized regions around compact objects. B…

Near-Infrared and Optical Observations of Type Ic SN 2021krf: Luminous Late-time Emission and Dust Formation

Aravind P. Ravi, Jeonghee Rho, Sangwook Park +29

We present near-infrared (NIR) and optical observations of the Type Ic supernova (SN Ic) SN 2021krf obtained between days 13 and 259 at several ground-based telescopes. The NIR spe…

Luminosity distribution of fast radio bursts from CHIME/FRB Catalog 1 by means of the updated Macquart relation

Xiang-Han Cui, Cheng-Min Zhang, Di Li +9

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extremely strong radio flares lasting several micro- to milliseconds and come from unidentified objects at cosmological distances, most of which are on…

Multiwavelength modeling the SED of Luminous Supersoft X-ray Sources in Large Magellanic Cloud and Small Magellanic Cloud

Augustin Skopal

Classical supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) are understood as close binary systems in which a massive white dwarf (WD) accretes from its companion at rates sustaining steady hydrogen…

The Radius of PSR J0740+6620 from NICER with NICER Background Estimates

Tuomo Salmi, Serena Vinciguerra, Devarshi Choudhury +15

We report a revised analysis for the radius, mass, and hot surface regions of the massive millisecond pulsar PSR J0740+6620, studied previously with joint fits to NICER and XMM-New…

AT2019wxt: An ultra-stripped supernova candidate discovered in electromagnetic follow-up of a gravitational wave trigger

Hinna Shivkumar, Amruta D. Jaodand, Arvind Balasubramanian +13

We present optical, radio and X-ray observations of a rapidly-evolving transient AT2019wxt (PS19hgw), discovered during the search for an electromagnetic (EM) counterpart to the gr…

Prospects of Gravitational Wave Follow-up Through a Wide-field Ultra-violet Satellite: a Dorado Case Study

Bas Dorsman, Geert Raaijmakers, S. Bradley Cenko +8

The detection of gravitational waves from binary neuron star merger GW170817 and electromagnetic counterparts GRB170817 and AT2017gfo kick-started the field of gravitational wave m…

Polarized x-rays constrain the disk-jet geometry in the black hole x-ray binary Cygnus X-1

Henric Krawczynski, Fabio Muleri, Michal Dovčiak +111

A black hole x-ray binary (XRB) system forms when gas is stripped from a normal star and accretes onto a black hole, which heats the gas sufficiently to emit x-rays. We report a po…

X-ray polarization detection of Cassiopeia A with IXPE

Jacco Vink, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +92

We report on a detection of polarized 3-6 keV X-ray emission from the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The overall polar…

Additional evidence for a pulsar wind nebula in the heart of SN 1987A from multi-epoch X-ray data and MHD modeling

Emanuele Greco, Marco Miceli, Salvatore Orlando +9

Since the day of its explosion, supernova (SN) 1987A has been closely monitored to study its evolution and to detect its central compact relic. In fact, the formation of a neutron…

A "Hyperburst" in the MAXI J0556-332 Neutron Star: Evidence for a New Type of Thermonuclear Explosion

Dany Page, Jeroen Homan, Martin Nava-Callejas +5

The study of transiently accreting neutron stars provides a powerful means to elucidate the properties of neutron star crusts. We present extensive numerical simulations of the evo…
