Diverse Morphologies of GRB X-Ray Plateaus within a Common Magnetar Framework
Xiao-Fei Dong, Yong-Feng Huang, Nurimangul Nurmamat +7
The origin of the X-ray plateau phase in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) remains an open problem. In particular, it is unclear whether GRBs with different temporal morphologies (i.e., with…
Gamma-Ray Bursts: Evidence for a Common Origin of X-ray Plateaus with Diverse Temporal Decay Index
Xiao-Fei Dong, Yong-Feng Huang, Chen Deng +8
A significant fraction of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit a plateau in the early X-ray afterglow light curve, whose mechanism remains uncertain. While the post-plateau normal decay…
Modeling the Multi-Wavelength Afterglow of Short Gamma-Ray Bursts with a Plateau Phase
Chen Deng, Yong-Feng Huang, Abdusattar Kurban +6
Short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibiting a plateau phase provide valuable insights into the post-merger activity of their central engines. Although the physical origin of the plate…
Magnetic Reconnection as a Potential Driver of X-ray Variability in Active Galactic Nuclei
Chen-Ran Hu, Yong-Feng Huang, Lang Cui +13
We present a systematic analysis on the X-ray variability in 13 bright quasars at z > 4.5, combining recent Swift observations from 2021 to 2023 and archival multi-epoch observatio…
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…
Prospects for Time-Domain and Multi-Messenger Science with eXTP
Shu-Xu Yi, Wen Zhao, Ren-Xin Xu +75
In this new era of time-domain and multi-messenger astronomy, various new transients and new phenomena are constantly being discovered thanks to the rapid advances in observations,…
Softness Ratio of SWIFT Gamma-ray Bursts and Relevant Correlations
Fan Xu, Yong-Feng Huang, Liang Li +7
The properties of X-ray flashes (XRFs) and X-ray rich gamma-ray bursts (XRRs) as compared with classical gamma-ray bursts (C-GRBs) have been widely discussed during the \emph{Swift…
EP241021a: a months-duration X-ray transient with luminous optical and radio emission
Shu Xinwen, Yang Lei, Yang Haonan +82
We present the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP241021a, by the Einstein Probe (EP) mission, and the results from multiwavelength follow-up observations. The transient wa…
GRB Timing: Decoding the Hidden Slow Jets in GRB 060729
Jin-Jun Geng, Ding-Fang Hu, Hao-Xuan Gao +16
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are luminous stellar explosions characterized by the ejection of relativistic jets. This work proposes a novel paradigm to study these GRB jets. By analyzin…
Extreme superluminal expansion traces an ultra-narrow GRB jet across relativistic regimes
Jin-Jun Geng, Ying-Kang Zhang, Hao-Xuan Gao +20
The long-term evolution of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets from ultra-relativistic launch to a slowly expanding radio source remains a fundamental problem in high-energy astrophysics, r…
Decoding FRB Energetics and Frequency Features Hidden by Observational Incompleteness
Chen-Ran Hu, Yong-Feng Huang, Jin-Jun Geng +9
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration extragalactic radio flashes likely powered by magnetars, yet their radiation mechanism remains unknown. Limited sensitivity and fi…
The Soft X-ray Aspect of Gamma-ray Bursts in the Einstein Probe Era
Hao-Xuan Gao, Jin-Jun Geng, Yi-Fang Liang +6
The Einstein Probe (EP) satellite, dedicated at time-domain high-energy astrophysics and multi-messenger astronomy, was recently launched and successfully put into operation. The w…

Tian-Rui Sun, Jin-Jun Geng, Jing-Zhi Yan +66
Thanks to the rapidly increasing time-domain facilities, we are entering a golden era of research on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In this Letter, we report our observations of GRB 2405…
Multi-wavelength analysis of the SN-associated low-luminosity GRB 171205A
XiuJuan Li, ZhiBin Zhang, YongFeng Huang +1
Multi-wavelength properties of the nearby Supernova(SN)-associated low-luminosity GRB 171205A are investigated in depth to constrain its physicalan origin synthetically. The pulse…
Pseudo Redshifts of Gamma-Ray Bursts Derived from the L-T-E Correlation
Chen Deng, Yong-Feng Huang, Fan Xu
The X-ray afterglow of many gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibits a plateau phase before the normal power-law decay stage, which may be related to continued activities of the central en…
