LHAASO-WCDA observed a 5 days TeV-delayed flaring event in blazar 1ES 1959+650

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339

We report a day-scale hard lag between GeV and TeV -ray emission from the HBL 1ES~1959+650 in early 2024. Since the LHAASO-WCDA real-time monitoring system began operation in la…

Anisotropic Particle Transport from a Pulsar Wind Nebula Revealed by Einstein Probe and LHAASO

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339

Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are major cosmic ray accelerators, yet the mechanisms transporting high-energy particles into the interstellar medium remain elusive. Building on the LHA…

Multi-wavelength Constraints on the Transient EP250905a

J. Quirola-Vasquez, P. G. Jonker, A. Levan +30

Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are a diverse class of high-energy suggested origins, ranging from stellar explosions to compact object mergers. The Einstein Probe (EP) satellite disc…

Ultra-high-energy -ray imprints from PeV particles accelerated by supernova remnants

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +320

The quest for the origin of cosmic ray (CRs) is a fundamental issue in astrophysics. Shocks of supernova remnants (SNRs) have been considered as the dominant contributors to Galact…

A fast X-ray transient from a weak relativistic jet associated with a type Ic-BL supernova

H. Sun, W. -X. Li, L. -D. Liu +163

Massive stars end their lives as core-collapse supernovae, amongst which some extremes are broad-lined type Ic supernovae from Wolf-Rayet stars associated with long-duration gamma-…

Soft X-ray prompt emission from a high-redshift gamma-ray burst EP240315a

Y. Liu, H. Sun, D. Xu +191

Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are believed to originate from core collapse of massive stars. High-redshift GRBs can probe the star formation and reionization history of the early un…
