From Rare Events to a Population: Discovering Overlooked Extragalactic Magnetar Giant Flare Candidates in Archival Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Data
Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Michela Negro +16
Magnetar giant flares (MGFs) are rare, extremely bright bursts of gamma-rays from highly magnetized neutron stars. These events are challenging to identify because, at extragalacti…
Fast X-ray Transient Detection with AXIS: application to Magnetar Giant Flares
Michela Negro, Zorawar Wadiasingh, George Younes +6
Magnetar giant flares (MGFs) are among the most luminous high-energy transients in the local universe, consisting of a short, intense MeV gamma-ray spike followed by a softer, puls…
Embedding Reliability for Unsupervised Classification of Gamma Ray Burst progenitors from Prompt Gamma-ray Emission
Nicoló Cibrario, Michela Negro
We present a statistical method based on scDEED to assess the reliability of a 2D embedding showing a low-dimensional representation of the distribution of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs)…
Direct observation of the X-ray counterpart of the Hα filaments and of the sloshing spiral in the Perseus galaxy cluster
Adrien Picquenot, Fabio Acero, Valeria Olivares +2
Deep Chandra observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster have allowed for the discovery of X-ray counterparts to the Hα filamentary structures and of a sloshing spiral. However, bot…
GRB 250702B: Discovery of a Gamma-Ray Burst from a Black Hole Falling into a Star
Eliza Neights, Eric Burns, Chris L. Fryer +52
Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe. Their prompt gamma-ray emission has typical durations between a fraction of a second and several minu…
Vacuum birefringence and the polarized X-ray emission from a radio magnetar
Rachael E. Stewart, Hoa Dinh Thi, George Younes +13
Magnetars are isolated neutron stars with exceptionally strong surface fields exceeding G. Their bright X-ray emission probes physical regimes in which quantum electrodyn…
Testing Magnetic Field Configurations in Spider Pulsar PSR J1723-2837 with IXPE
Michela Negro, Haocheng Zhang, Niccolò Di Lalla +4
We present the first X-ray polarimetry observations of a redback millisecond pulsar binary, PSR J1723-2837, with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). We conduct a spectro…
Mapping Gamma-Ray Bursts: Distinguishing Progenitor Systems Through Machine Learning
Sharleen N. Espinoza, Nicole M. Lloyd-Ronning, Michela Negro +2
We present an analysis of gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitor classification, through their positions on a Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) plot, constructed by Ne…
Precision spectral measurements of Chromium and Titanium from 10 to 250 GeV and sub-Iron to Iron ratio with the Calorimetric Electron Telescope on the ISS
O. Adriani, Y. Akaike, K. Asano +77
The Calorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET), in operation on the International Space Station since 2015, collected a large sample of cosmic-ray (CR) iron and sub-iron events over a…
Puzzling Variation of Gamma Rays from the Sun over the Solar Cycle Revealed with Fermi-LAT
A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio, M. Ajello +100
The steady-state gamma-ray emission from the Sun is thought to consist of two emission components due to interactions with Galactic cosmic rays: (1) a hadronic disk component, and…
Multidisciplinary Science in the Multimessenger Era
Eric Burns, Christopher L. Fryer, Ivan Agullo +82
Astrophysical observations of the cosmos allow us to probe extreme physics and answer foundational questions on our universe. Modern astronomy is increasingly operating under a hol…
Timing and Spectral Evolution of the Magnetar 1E 1841-045 in Outburst
G. Younes, S. K. Lander, M. G. Baring +19
We present the timing and spectral analyses of the NICER, NuSTAR, and IXPE observations of the magnetar 1E 1841-045 covering 82 days following its August 2024 bursting activity as…
Characterizing Candidate Blazar Counterparts of the Ultra-High-Energy Event KM3-230213A
KM3NeT Collaboration, MessMapp Group, LAT Collaboration +13
High-energy astrophysical neutrinos serve as crucial messengers for understanding hadronic acceleration processes and identifying the origins of cosmic rays, with blazars among the…
