GRB 211211A-like Events and How Gravitational Waves May Tell Their Origins
Yi-Han Iris Yin, Bin-Bin Zhang, Hui Sun +5
GRB 211211A is a rare burst with a genuinely long duration, yet its prominent kilonova association provides compelling evidence that this peculiar burst was the result of a compact…
Long-duration Gamma-ray Burst and Associated Kilonova Emission from Fast-spinning Black Hole--Neutron Star Mergers
Jin-Ping Zhu, Xiangyu Ivy Wang, Hui Sun +5
Here we collect three unique bursts, GRBs\,060614, 211211A and 211227A, all characterized by a long-duration main emission (ME) phase and a rebrightening extended emission (EE) pha…
Probing the progenitor of high- short-duration GRB 201221D and its possible bulk acceleration in prompt emission
Hao-Yu Yuan, Hou-Jun Lü, Ye Li +5
The growing observed evidence shows that the long- and short-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from massive star core-collapse and the merger of compact stars, respectivel…
Luminosity function and event rate density of XMM-Newton-selected supernova shock-breakout candidates
Hui Sun, He-Yang Liu, Hai-Wu Pan +6
A dozen X-ray supernova shock breakout (SN SBO) candidates were reported recently based on XMM-Newton archival data, which increased the X-ray selected SN SBO sample by an order of…
A unified binary neutron star merger magnetar model for the Chandra X-ray transients CDF-S XT1 and XT2
Hui Sun, Ye Li, Binbin Zhang +4
Two bright X-ray transients were reported from the Chandra Deep Field South archival data, namely CDF-S XT1 and XT2. Whereas the nature of the former is not identified, the latter…
A magnetar-powered X-ray transient as the aftermath of a binary neutron-star merger
Y. Q. Xue, X. C. Zheng, Y. Li +14
Neutron star-neutron star mergers are known to be associated with short gamma-ray bursts. If the neutron star equation of state is sufficiently stiff, at least some of such mergers…
X-ray counterpart of gravitational waves due to binary neutron star mergers: light curves, luminosity functions, and event rate densities
Hui Sun, Bing Zhang, He Gao
Zhang (2013) proposed a type of GRB-less X-ray transient associated with double neutron star (NS-NS) mergers under the conjecture of a rapidly-spinning magnetar merger product with…
Extra-galactic high-energy transients: event rate densities and luminosity functions
Hui Sun, Bing Zhang, Zhuo Li
Several types of extra-galactic high-energy transients have been discovered, which include high-luminosity and low-luminosity long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), short-duration…
