Coupled Shock Cooling and Radioactive Heating in the Type IIb Supernova SN 2024aecx: An Extended Envelope and Rapid Optical Decline

Na Wei, Yu-Hao Zhang, Liang-Duan Liu +4

SN~2024aecx is a nearby, rapidly evolving stripped-envelope supernova with a prominent double-peaked ultraviolet--optical light curve. We model its multiband evolution with an exte…

X-rays breaking out of pre-explosion ejecta mark a supernova's first light

Weimin Yuan, Qiu-Ju Huang, Jin-Ping Zhu +130

Massive stars die as core-collapse supernovae, whose optical light emerges days after the implosion. Theory predicts that the initial collapse-driven shock, upon breaking through t…

\texttt{TransFit-MAG}: Self-Consistent Modeling of Magnetar-Powered Transients from Shock Breakout to Spin-Down Heating

Jing-Yao Li, Liang-Duan Liu, Yun-Wei Yu +2

Magnetar engines are widely invoked to power luminous optical transients, but their early emission depends on the coupled evolution of engine injection, shock heating, adiabatic co…

Flux Variations of Fast Radio Bursts and Their Persistent Radio Sources: Evidence for a Shared Progenitor

Xinming Li, Chenhui Niu, Jiaheng Zhang +24

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic radio transients, some of which are associated with compact persistent radio sources (PRSs), hinting at a physical c…

TransFit-CSM: A Fast, Physically Consistent Framework for Interaction-Powered Transients

Yu-Hao Zhang, Liang-Duan Liu, Ze-Xin Du +3

We present TransFit-CSM, a fast and physically consistent framework for modeling interaction-powered transients. The method self-consistently couples the ejecta circumstellar mediu…

TransFit: An Efficient Framework for Transient Light-Curve Fitting with Time-Dependent Radiative Diffusion

Liang-Duan Liu, Yu-Hao Zhang, Yun-Wei Yu +4

Modeling the light curves (LCs) of luminous astronomical transients, such as supernovae, is crucial for understanding their progenitor physics, particularly with the exponential gr…

EP241021a: A catastrophic collapse/merger of compact star binary leading to the formation of a remnant millisecond magnetar?

Guang-Lei Wu, Yun-Wei Yu, Liang-Duan Liu +7

Observations of fast X-ray transients (FXRTs) with the Einstein Probe have successfully led to the discovery of some unusual extragalactic optical transients. EP241021a is a newly…

Magnetar wind-driven shock breakout emission after double neutron star mergers: The effect of the anisotropy of the merger ejecta

Guang-Lei Wu, Yun-Wei Yu, Shao-Ze Li

A rapidly rotating and highly magnetized remnant neutron star (NS; magnetar) could survive from a merger of double NSs and drive a powerful relativistic wind. The early interaction…

Does a long-lived remnant neutron star exist after short gamma-ray burst GRB 160821B?

Guang-Lei Wu, Yun-Wei Yu, Jin-Ping Zhu

Mergers of double neutron stars (DNSs) could lead to the formation of a long-lived massive remnant NS, which has been previously suggested to explain the AT 2017gfo kilonova emissi…
