Aditya-L1 and SDO Observations of a Confined X-Class Flare with an EUV Late Phase: Thermal and Nonthermal Emission, Magnetic Topology, and Flux Rope Confinement

Vishwa Vijay Singh, Bhuwan Joshi, N. P. S. Mithun

We study a long-duration, confined X2.0-class solar flare exhibiting three distinct episodes of HXR emission, along with an accompanying EUV late phase. A key highlight of this wor…

Limits on the axion-photon coupling from Chandrayaan-2 observations

Tanmoy Kumar, N. P. S. Mithun, Subhendra Mohanty +3

Axions and axion-like particles (ALPs) have gained immense attention in searches for beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics. Experiments searching for axions leverage their predicted…

A Novel Optical Design for Wide-Field Imaging in X-ray Astronomy

Neeraj K. Tiwari, Santosh V. Vadawale, N. P. S. Mithun

Over the decades, astronomical X-ray telescopes have utilized the Wolter type-1 optical design, which provides stigmatic imaging in axial direction but suffers from coma and higher…

Multi-epoch UV X-ray spectral study of NGC 4151 with AstroSat

Shrabani Kumar, G. C. Dewangan, P. Gandhi +8

We present a multi-wavelength spectral study of NGC 4151 based on five epochs of simultaneous AstroSat observations in the near ultra-violet (NUV) to hard X-ray band ($\sim 0.005-8…
