Signature of Triaxially Precessing Magnetars in Gamma-ray Burst X-Ray Afterglows
Biao Zhang, Shu-Qing Zhong, Long Li +1
The X-ray afterglows of some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit plateaus, which can be explained by the internal dissipation of a newborn millisecond magnetar wind. In the early phase…

Identifying the Origin of FRB-associated X-ray Bursts with X-ray Polarization
Shu-Qing Zhong, Long Li, Biao Zhang +1
The origin of extraordinary X-ray burst (XRB) associated with a fast radio burst (FRB) like FRB 20200428D is still unclear, though several models such as the emission of a trapped…
