The Abundance of New Kind of Dark Matter Structures
Yupeng Yang, Xuelei Chen, Tan Lu +1
A new kind of dark matter structures, ultracompact minihalos (UCMHs) was proposed recently. They would be formed during the radiation dominated epoch if the large density perturbat…
Where do the Progenitors of Millisecond Pulsars come from?
Ali Taani, Chengmin Zhang, Mashhoor Al-Wardat +1
Observations of a large population of Millisecond Pulsars (MSPs) show a wide divergence in the orbital periods (from approximately hours to a few months). In the standard view, Low…
Unveiling the super-orbital modulation of LS I +61 303 in X-rays
Jian Li, Diego F. Torres, Shu Zhang +5
From the longest monitoring of LS I +61 303 done to date by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) we found evidence for the long-sought, years- long modulation in the X-ray emissi…
The Highly Energetic Expansion of SN2010bh Associated with GRB 100316D
Filomena Bufano, Elena Pian, Jesper Sollerman +50
We present the spectroscopic and photometric evolution of the nearby (z = 0.059) spectroscopically confirmed type Ic supernova, SN 2010bh, associated with the soft, long-duration g…
Could bright gamma-ray burst optical transients have been recorded historically?
Richard G. Strom, Fuyuan Zhao, Chengmin Zhang
The brightest optical flash from a gamma-ray burst (GRB) was, briefly, a naked-eye object. Several other GRBs have produced optical transients only slightly fainter. We argue that,…
Dynamical mass constraints on the ultraluminous X-ray Source NGC 1313 X-2
Jifeng Liu, Jerome Orosz, Joel N. Bregman
Dynamical mass measurements hold the key to answering whether ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) or stellar mass black holes with special…
On the Nature of the Progenitor of the Type Ia SN2011fe in M101
Jifeng Liu, Rosanne Di Stefano, Tao Wang +1
The explosion of a Type Ia supernova, SN 2011ef, in the nearby Pinwheel galaxy (M101 at 6.4 Mpc) provides an opportunity to study pre-explosion images and search for the progenitor…
Evidence for Type Ia Supernova Diversity from Ultraviolet Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope
Xiaofeng Wang, Lifan Wang, Alexei V. Filippenko +93
We present ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy and photometry of four Type Ia supernovae (SNe 2004dt, 2004ef, 2005M, and 2005cf) obtained with the UV prism of the Advanced Camera for Sur…
Selection Effects on the Observed Redshift Dependence of GRB Jet Opening Angles
Rui-Jing Lu, Jun-Jie Wei, Shu-Fu Qin +1
Apparent redshift dependence of the jet opening angles () of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is observed from current GRB sample. We investigate whether this dependence can be e…
The Emission from Inner Disk and Corona in the Low and Intermediate Spectral States of Black Hole X-ray Binaries
Erlin Qiao, B. F. Liu
Recent observations reveal that a cool disk may survive in the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) for some black hole X-ray binaries in the canonical low/hard state. The spectr…
Burst and Persistent Emission Properties during the Recent Active Episode of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar 1E 1841-045
Lin Lin, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Ersin Gogus +19
Swift/BAT detected the first burst from 1E 1841-045 in May 2010 with intermittent burst activity recorded through at least July 2011. Here we present Swift and Fermi/GBM observatio…
Antiprotons from dark matter annihilation in the Galaxy: astrophysical uncertainties
Carmelo Evoli, Ilias Cholis, Dario Grasso +2
The latest years have seen steady progresses in WIMP dark matter (DM) searches, with hints of possible signals suggested by both direct and indirect detection experiments. Antiprot…
Radiation Mechanisms and Physical Properties of GeV-TeV BL Lac Objects
Jin Zhang, En-Wei Liang, Shuang-Nan Zhang +1
BL Lac objects are the best candidates to study the jet properties since their spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are less contaminated by the emission from the accretion disk an…
A Systematic Study on Energy Dependence of Quasi-Periodic Oscillation Frequency in GRS 1915+105
Shu-Ping Yan, Jin-Lu Qu, Guo-Qiang Ding +6
Systematically studying all the RXTE/PCA observations for GRS 1915+105 before November 2010, we have discovered three additional patterns in the relation between Quasi-Periodic Osc…
Radiation Mechanisms and Physical Properties of GeV-TeV BL Lac Objects
Jin Zhang, En-Wei Liang, Shuang-Nan Zhang +1
Broadband spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are complied from literature for 24 TeV BL Lac objects. Two SEDs, which are identified as low and high states with their flux densiti…

Lin Lin, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Matthew G. Baring +27
We present our temporal and spectral analyses of 29 bursts from SGR J0501+4516, detected with the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope during the 13…
Magnetic Energy Buildup for Relativistic Magnetar Giant Flares
Cong Yu
Motivated by coronal mass ejection studies, we construct general relativistic models of a magnetar magnetosphere endowed with strong magnetic fields. The equilibrium states of the…
Diffuse Galactic Gamma Rays at intermediate and high latitudes. I. Constraints on the ISM properties

We study the high latitude (|b|>10) diffuse gamma-ray emission in the Galaxy in light of the recently published data from the Fermi collaboration at energies between 100 MeV and 10…
A unique X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxy IRAS F01475-0740
Xing-Xing Huang, Jun-Xian Wang, Ying Tan +2
X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxies appear to have X-ray absorption column densities that are too low (NH < 10^22 cm-2) to explain the absence of broad emission lines in their opti…
