Minutes-long soft X-ray prompt emission from a compact object merger

An Li, Chen-Wei Wang, Niccolò Passaleva +75

Compact object mergers are multi-messenger sources and known progenitors of some gamma-ray bursts, bright flashes of high-energy radiation powered by a central engine, either an ac…

A Common Synchrotron Origin for Prompt Gamma-Ray and Soft X-Ray Emission in GRBs: Evidence from Joint Spectral Analysis

Ziming Wang, Chenyu Wang, He Gao +4

The recent launches of the Einstein Probe (EP) and the Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) mission have led to the detection of a growing number of long GRBs with significant, ea…

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-…

Magnetization Factors of Gamma-Ray Burst Jets Revealed by a Systematic Analysis of the Fermi Sample

An Li, He Gao, Lin Lan +1

The composition of gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets remained a mystery until recently. In practice, we usually characterize the magnetization of the GRB jets () through the ratio be…

Exploring Supermassive Compact Dark Matter with the Millilensing Effect of Gamma-Ray Bursts

Huan Zhou, An Li, Shi-Jie Lin +3

Gravitational lensing effect is one of most significant observational probes to investigate compact dark matter/objects over a wide mass range. In this work, we first propose to de…

A Search for Millilensing Gamma-Ray Bursts in the Observations of Fermi GBM

Shi-Jie Lin, An Li, He Gao +8

Millilensing of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) is expected to manifest as multiple emission episodes in a single triggered GRB with similar light-curve patterns and similar spectrum prope…
