The unpolarized macronova associated with the gravitational wave event GW170817

S. Covino, K. Wiersema, Y. Z. Fan +37

The merger of two dense stellar remnants including at least one neutron star (NS) is predicted to produce gravitational waves (GWs) and short duration gamma ray bursts (GRBs). In t…

Regulation of black-hole accretion by a disk wind during a violent outburst of V404 Cygni

T. Muñoz-Darias, J. Casares, D. Mata Sánchez +7

Accretion of matter onto black holes is universally associated with strong radiative feedback and powerful outflows. In particular, black hole transients show outflows whose proper…

High-energy Neutrino follow-up search of Gravitational Wave Event GW150914 with ANTARES and IceCube

S. Adrián-Martínez, A. Albert, M. André +1387

We present the high-energy-neutrino follow-up observations of the first gravitational wave transient GW150914 observed by the Advanced LIGO detectors on Sept. 14th, 2015. We search…

The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission

Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Xavier Barcons +237

This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of tw…

3D simulations of supernova remnants evolution including non-linear particle acceleration

Gilles Ferrand, Anne Decourchelle, Jean Ballet +2

If a sizeable fraction of the energy of supernova remnant shocks is channeled into energetic particles (commonly identified with Galactic cosmic rays), then the morphological evolu…

Detection of Gamma Rays From a Starburst Galaxy

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

Starburst galaxies exhibit in their central regions a highly increased rate of supernovae, the remnants of which are thought to accelerate energetic cosmic rays up to energies of ~…
