Insight-HXMT observations of Swift J0243.6+6124: the evolution of RMS pulse fractions at super-Eddington luminosity

P. J. Wang, L. D. Kong, S. Zhang +116

Based on Insight-HXMT data, we report on the pulse fraction evolution during the 2017-2018 outburst of the newly discovered first Galactic ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) Swift J0…

Discovery of oscillations above 200 keV in a black hole X-ray binary with Insight-HXMT

Xiang Ma, Lian Tao, Shuang-Nan Zhang +119

Low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (LFQPOs) are commonly found in black hole X-ray binaries, and their origin is still under debate. The properties of LFQPOs at high energie…

HXMT Identification of a non-thermal X-ray burst from SGR J1935+2154 and with FRB 200428

C. K. Li, L. Lin, S. L. Xiong +117

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are short pulses observed in radio band from cosmological distances. One class of models invoke soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), or magnetars, as the sourc…

Insight-HXMT insight into switch of the accretion mode: the case of the X-ray pulsar 4U 1901+03

Y. L. Tuo, L. Ji, S. S. Tsygankov +116

We use the In data collected during the 2019 outburst from X-ray pulsar 4U 1901+03 to complement the orbital parameters reported by Fermi/GBM. Using the Insight-HXMT, we examine th…

The evolution of the broadband temporal features observed in the black-hole transient MAXI J1820+070 with Insight-HXMT

Yanan Wang, Long Ji, S. N. Zhang +117

We study the evolution of the temporal properties of MAXI 1820+070 during the 2018 outburst in its hard state from MJD 58190 to 58289 with Insight-HXMT in a broad energy band 1-150…

Discovery of delayed spin-up behavior following two large glitches in the Crab pulsar, and the statistics of such processes

M. Y. Ge, S. N. Zhang, F. J. Lu +130

Glitches correspond to sudden jumps of rotation frequency () and its derivative () of pulsars, the origin of which remains not well understood yet, partly because the jum…

A search for prompt gamma-ray counterparts to fast radio bursts in the Insight-HXMT data

C. Guidorzi, M. Marongiu, R. Martone +118

No robust detection of prompt electromagnetic counterparts to fast radio bursts (FRBs) has yet been obtained, in spite of several multi-wavelength searches carried out so far. Spec…
