The average X-ray spectrum of the volume-complete M-, F-, G-, and K-type star sample within 10 pc of the Sun
Xueying Zheng, Gabriele Ponti, Nicola Locatelli +15
F, G, K and M type stars are the most abundant stellar population in the Milky Way and are expected to contribute to its diffuse X-ray emission. Yet their intrinsic average X-ray s…
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…
The Average Soft X-ray Spectra of eROSITA Active Galactic Nuclei
Shi-Jiang Chen, Johannes Buchner, Teng Liu +16
Context. AGNs are strong X-ray emitters shaped by disk-corona interactions. The soft excess (0.5-2.0 keV) reveals key information about the "warm corona" bridging the disk and hot…
Science objectives of the Einstein Probe mission
Weimin Yuan, Lixin Dai, Hua Feng +93
The Einstein Probe (EP) is an interdisciplinary mission of time-domain and X-ray astronomy. Equipped with a wide-field lobster-eye X-ray focusing imager, EP will discover cosmic X-…
The hot circumgalactic medium in the eROSITA All-Sky Survey III. Star-forming and quiescent galaxies
Yi Zhang, Johan Comparat, Gabriele Ponti +17
The circumgalactic medium (CGM), as the gas repository for star formation, might contain the answer to the mysterious galaxy quenching and bimodal galaxy population origin. We meas…
Einstein Probe discovery of EP240408a: a peculiar X-ray transient with an intermediate timescale
Wenda Zhang, Weimin Yuan, Zhixing Ling +136
We report the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP240408a, by Einstein Probe (EP) and follow-up studies made with EP, Swift, NICER, GROND, ATCA and other ground-based multi-…
