EP-FXT Observations of Abell 1795: X-ray properties and structure out to

Y. Tang, S. M. Jia, H. H. Zhao +20

We present deep X-ray observations of the nearby X-ray-luminous galaxy cluster Abell 1795 obtained with the Einstein Probe Follow-up X-ray Telescope EP-FXT, with a total exposure t…

Discovery of EP J175257.3-351923 as a Candidate Black Hole Low-Mass X-ray Binary

G. L. Huang, Q. C. Zhao, L. Tao +30

We report the discovery of a new X-ray transient, EP J175257.3-351923 (EP250916a), by the Einstein Probe (EP) near the Galactic plane. The outburst lasted for at least 250\,days, r…

First Gamma-Ray Burst Observations with SVOM

F. Daigne, D. Turpin, J. -L. Atteia +34

Following its launch on 22 June 2024, the Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) successfully completed its flight acceptance, commissioning, and scien…

A rare sextuple-merging brightest cluster galaxy system in a disturbed galaxy cluster observed with the Einstein Probe Follow-up X-ray Telescope

Z. L. Wen, S. M. Jia, Z. S. Yuan +12

The evolutionary processes of galaxy clusters influence the properties of their member galaxies. We present a joint X-ray--optical analysis of the galaxy cluster WHY J050106.2+0137…

The SVOM mission, its profile and its system

B. Cordier, J. Y. Wei, S. N. Zhang +37

The SVOM (Space-based Variable Objects Monitor) mission, launched into low Earth orbit on 22 June 2024, is a French-Chinese multi-wavelength observatory dedicated to the study of t…

XRF 241001A/SN 2024aiiq: A faint soft X-ray transient detected by SVOM with a broad-line type Ic supernova revealed by JWST

B. Schneider, M. Brunet, B. P. Gompertz +61

X-ray flashes (XRFs) are a type of gamma-ray burst (GRB) with prompt emission predominantly below 30 keV and have been poorly detected by previous missions. The advent of the SVOM…

An energetic dirty fireball detected in soft X-rays

C. -Y. Dai, J. Quirola-Vásquez, Y. -H. Wang +76

The collapse of massive stars drives explosions that power relativistic fireballs. If only a small amount of matter is entrained, such clean fireballs can expand with Lorentz facto…

An Accretion-Modulated Internal Shock Model for Long GRBs

R. Moradi, C. W. Wang, E. S. Yorgancioglu +1

We introduce the Accretion-Modulated Internal Shock model (AMIS) as a possible framework for explaining the observational properties of long gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission.…

SVOM discovery of a strong X-ray outburst of the blazar 1ES~1959+650 and multi-wavelength follow-up with the Neil Gehrels Swift observatory

A. Foisseau, A. Coleiro, S. Komossa +37

On December 6, 2024, 1ES 1959+650, one of the X-ray brightest blazars known, underwent a high-amplitude X-ray outburst detected by SVOM, the first such discovery with this mission.…
