Long-Period Transients as a new frontier in time-domain astronomy
Manisha Caleb, Dougal Dobie, Natasha Hurley-Walker +8
Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are relatively new astrophysical objects occupying the observational gap between canonical pulsars and slowly varying radio variables. They emit…
A FAST search for radio pulsations during the dormant state of the AMSPs IGR J00291+5934 and MAXI J1957+032
A. Marino, E. Parent, F. Coti Zelati +15
Accreting millisecond pulsars (AMSPs) and transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) are neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries which can evolve into "recycled" radio millisecond pulsa…
Pulsar Selection Criteria and Performance Evaluation of Autonomous X-ray Pulsar Navigation Systems
Sui Chen, Emilie Parent, Nanda Rea +1
Current space missions primarily depend on Earth-based Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) systems involving human-in-the-loop operations. X-ray pulsar-based navigation offers…
Aql X-1 from dawn 'til dusk: the early rise, fast state transition and decay of its 2024 outburst
A. Marino, F. Coti Zelati, K. Alabarta +36
Transient Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) are usually first detected by all-sky X-ray monitors when they enter new outbursts, typically at X-ray luminosities above 10…
Einstein Probe discovery of EP J171159.4-333253: an eclipsing neutron star low-mass X-ray binary with clocked bursts
Y. L. Wang, F. Coti Zelati, E. Parent +27
EP J171159.4-333253 is a new neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary discovered in outburst by the Einstein Probe (EP) on 2025 June 23, exhibiting clocked type-I X-ray bursts, eclipses…
Accretion and Ejection Physics at High Time Resolution
F. M. Vincentelli, P. Casella, A. Veledina +18
Accretion onto compact objects is one of the most fundamental phenomena in the astrophysics, powering some of the most luminous objects in the sky. Along with this, accretion has a…
