Einstein Probe Discovery of an X-ray Flare from K-type Star PM J23221-0301

Guoying Zhao, WeiKang Zheng, Rong-Feng Shen +21

Stellar flares are an intense stellar activity that can significantly impact the atmospheric composition of the surrounding planets and even the possible existence of life. During…

A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf

Dongyue Li, Wenda Zhang, Jun Yang +97

Stars captured by black holes (BHs) can be torn apart by strong tidal forces, producing electromagnetic flares. To date, more than 100 tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been obse…

Hard X-ray Emission in AU Mic Flares: A Minor Contributor to Planetary Atmospheric Escape

Yifan Hu, Murray Brightman, Fabio Favata +7

Stellar flares are potent drivers of atmospheric evolution on orbiting exoplanets, primarily through extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray (XUV) irradiation. However, the contri…

SVOM GRB 250314A at z 7.3: an exploding star in the era of reionization

B. Cordier, J. Y. Wei, N. R. Tanvir +103

Most long Gamma-ray bursts originate from a rare type of massive stellar explosion. Their afterglows, while rapidly fading, can be initially extremely luminous at optical/near-infr…

Imaging-spectroscopy diagnosis of the giant sloshing spiral in the Virgo cluster with the Einstein Probe Follow-up X-ray Telescope

X. Zheng, S. Jia, C. Li +46

We performed deep X-ray observations of the Virgo cluster using the Einstein Probe Follow-up X-ray Telescope (EP-FXT) with a total exposure of 295 ks. Leveraging the large field of…

Einstein Probe Discovery of EP J182730.0-095633: A New Black Hole X-ray Binary Candidate in Faint Outburst?

Huaqing Cheng, Qingchang Zhao, L. Tao +77

Black hole X-ray binaries (candidates) currently identified in our galaxy are mainly transient sources, with the majority discovered through the detection of their X-ray outbursts.…
