Evidence for the spin-kick alignment of pulsars from the statistics of their magnetic inclinations
Anton Biryukov, Gregory Beskin
It is thought that isolated neutron stars receive a natal kick velocity at birth nearly aligned with their spin axis. Direct observational confirmation of this alignment is current…

A new method of reconstructing images of gamma-ray telescopes applied to the LST-1 of CTAO
CTA-LST Project, :, K. Abe +305
Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) are used to observe very high-energy photons from the ground. Gamma rays are indirectly detected through the Cherenkov light emitte…
A probe of the maximum energetics of fast radio bursts through a prolific repeating source
O. S. Ould-Boukattine, P. Chawla, J. W. T. Hessels +12
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are sufficiently energetic to be detectable from luminosity distances up to at least seven billion parsecs (redshift ). Probing the maximum energies…
Constraining a relativistic mean field model using neutron star mass-radius measurements II: Hyperonic models
Chun Huang, Laura Tolos, Constança Providência +1
We investigate whether measurements of the neutron star mass and radius or the tidal deformability can provide information about the presence of hyperons inside a neutron star. Thi…
Revealing the state transition of Cen X-3 at high spectral resolution with Chandra
Graciela Sanjurjo-Ferrín, Jose Miguel Torrejón, Lida Oskinova +4
Cen X-3 is a compact, high-mass X-ray binary (HMXRB), likely powered by Roche lobe overflow. We present a phase-resolved X-ray spectral and timing analysis of a target of opportuni…
Parameter constraints for accreting millisecond pulsars with synthetic NICER data
Bas Dorsman, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +10
Pulse profile modelling (PPM) is a technique for inferring mass, radius and hotspot properties of millisecond pulsars. PPM is now regularly used for analysis of rotation-powered mi…
Back from the dead: AT2019aalc as a candidate repeating TDE in an AGN
Patrik Milán Veres, Anna Franckowiak, Sjoert van Velzen +15
Context. To date, three nuclear transients have been associated with high-energy neutrino events. These transients are generally thought to be powered by tidal disruptions of stars…

David C. Konijn, Danté M. Hewitt, Jason W. T. Hessels +8
The repeating fast radio burst source FRB 20220912A was remarkably active in the weeks after its discovery. Here we report 696 bursts detected with the Nançay Radio Telescope (NRT)…
A NICER View of the Nearest and Brightest Millisecond Pulsar: PSR J0437$\unicode{x2013}$4715
